Luther And Katharina
$18.00Based on the 16th century romance of Katharina von Bora and Christian theologian and reformer Martin Luther, this novel plunges historical fiction fans into a turbulent time, where a strong man confronted the powerful Catholic church, and a courageous woman was called to love him.
Katharina von Bora has seen nothing but the inside of cloister walls since she was five. Like thousands of other monks and nuns, her deepest desires for love and family are awakened by the teachings of Martin Luther, a heretic monk who defies the pope and princes to condemn cloistered life and promote the goodness of marriage. In a daring escape, Katharina finds refuge with Martin Luther and seeks his help to pair her with the noble, wealthy husband she desires.
At a time in history when class tensions and religious conflicts are escalating toward the brink of war, Martin Luther believes that each day could be his last. He has no interest in practicing what he preaches and determines he will never take a wife. Katharina has no desire to marry beneath her status as a noblewoman. As the horrors of the bloody Peasant War break out around them, the proud Katharina and headstrong Martin Luther fight their own battle for true love, in one of the greatest love stories of history.

And while Eleanor knows her own heart, she also knows her aunt will never approve.

The more he gets to know Charlotte, the more interested he becomes, an interest encouraged by those closest to her..

Por Que Me Persigues – (Spanish)
$16.86Se volteo para asi recoger su cama y se dio cuenta de algo… !lo que menos ella deseaba ver!… estaba alli, parada frente a ella cual reflejo inerte, en un espejo, de alguien que no desea ser lo que es…
No decia nada, no se movia, solo la miraba directo a los ojos como esperando que Nelly hablara. Nelly trato de ignorar su presencia, de no decirle nada, a ver si asi se desaparecia y la dejaba quieta. Asi que se movio alrededor de su cama recogiendola, acomodando sus cobijas y sabanas… Nelly se enderezo y volvio a mirar en la misma direccion…
“Sabes que? no deseo saber de ti… siempre te las ingenuas para hacerme mal, para hacerme dao… Y como siempre… no vas a decir nada cuando te hablo… solo hablas cuando menos debes, y hechas a perder todo. Estoy cansada de ti, estoy cansada de tu presencia, estoy cansada de que siempre me persigas, que siempre estes detras de mi mirando todo lo que hago y acusandome de todo y por todo… simplemente estoy cansada de ti… !ESTOY CANSADA DE TIIIIIII”!… Gritaba Nelly sin poder contenerse en su enojo, mientras, lagrimas salian corriendo de sus ojos, deslizandose por sus mejillas, cayendo al suelo, donde quedarian solas y tristes para siempre…
Sin importar cual sea nuestra posicion religiosa, o creencia espiritual, la realidad es que somos perseguidos por uno de los enemigos mas implacable y cruel que humano alguno pueda enfrentar. Muchos ni siquiera se dan cuenta de esta realidad, pero aun asi, si estuvieramos consientes de ello… Que podemos hacer para poder ser librados?… “si es que se puede” de un enemigo asi…Una historia llena de suspenso, intriga, y amor que (segun lees) te mantendra corriendo por tu vida, mientras te preguntas Por que Me Persigues?
