Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As one evil falls, another rises in its place. The powerful witch, Desdemona, has finally been killed by an alliance of wolf, elf, and fae. But Reyaz, brother to Cypher the warlock king, has vowed retribution for a life that was taken from him. Now Cypher must decide not only how to protect his newfound mate and his people, but also how to destroy the only family he has left.Meanwhile, Jen's pregnancy progresses and the fateful due date draws ever nearer. The thought of losing Decebel's child constantly threatens to overwhelm her. With each passing day, Decebel grows more distant, causing Jen to wonder what toll the impending loss of their child is taking on him. Unbeknownst to Jen, in an act of desperation to protect his unborn child and mate, Decebel strikes a deadly bargain with the Great Luna-his life in place of his child's. There is only one way for that to happen; the bond between he and Jen must be broken.As Jen as Decebel struggle through their darkness, another kind of darkness is infiltrating Fane's heart. Doubts and questions linger as he tries to cope with the emotions brought on in the aftermath of Desdemona's curse. He knows what happened wasn't real, but still he can't rid himself of the terrible images seared into his memory. Jacque is his light, the one who keeps the darkness at bay, yet he won't let her inside to do just that.Sally continues to learn what it means to be a gypsy healer and Costin struggles to protect her as she runs full speed ahead to help her wolves, heedless of her own safety. She sees her best friends struggling, each enduring their own trials. She's desperate to help them, but can she keep them safe? With all of these things hanging heavy over the heads of the Serbia and Romania packs, their attention is divided. The wolves do not even realize a threat has slowly infiltrated their midst. Will they recognize the threat in time to save the lives that precariously hang in the balance?Against this backdrop of darkness, choices will be made, fears will confronted, and the ultimate sacrifice will be made. Will the wolves stand together to defeat the threats arrayed against them, both from within and without? Will love conquer all? Or will the beleaguered wolves finally succumb to their demons?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do families remain close when turbulent forces threaten to tear them apart? In this groundbreaking book based on more than a decade of research set in Vietnam, Merav Shohet explores what happens across generations to families that survive imperialism, war, and massive political and economic upheaval. Placing personal sacrifice at the center of her story, Shohet recounts vivid experiences of conflict, love, and loss. In doing so, her work challenges the idea that sacrifice is merely a blood-filled religious ritual or patriotic act. Today, domestic sacrifices—made largely by women—precariously knot family members together by silencing suffering and naturalizing cross-cutting gender, age, class, and political hierarchies. In rethinking ordinary ethics, this intimate ethnography reveals how quotidian acts of sacrifice help family members forge a sense of continuity in the face of trauma and decades of dramatic change.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Toast to Love and Sacrifice is the story of Simone Singer, a young, brash, female politician living three decades from now, whose quest to balance feminism and love, conviction and conformity, and life and death, are tainted by her overreaching ambition. Simone's world is an overpopulated one, where population control has necessitated a widely accepted medical procedure known as "Maladaptive Fetal Termination." Unfortunately for Simone, whose career as a politician lives and breathes according to popular opinion, the one man she loves, Jack, leads a rebel group of staunch opponents of the procedure who would go to any lengths to ensure the extinction of the "MFT." Simone's journey toward securing a life with Jack takes her on a series of challenging and often dangerous life-altering adventures. Along the way, she learns lessons about forgiveness, strength, and family that force her to re-examine her own beliefs and conquer her own preconceptions about who she is suppose to be. A Toast to Love and Sacrifice is a story for anyone who enjoys prophecy, realism, romance, or self-analysis and is especially rich reading for those seeking a unique blend of these exciting genres.

Yates PhD "When the first page turns & the cover shuts one last time, you will appreciate having read this book. Life & Love masterfully threads together the soul of the streets within the young black urban experience. Themes of street life, incarceration, drug abuse, domestic violence, tore family bonds, and unconditional love are addressed throughout this literary jewel. Many questions and introspective drive Life & Love forward with every page turned. The courage of A. Stephon & Jackquline Moorer to address these complex issues, amongst others. While resisting simplistic answers and keeping you on the edges of each page with drama and humor, distinguishes them & this epic novel for others within the popular genre of urban/street Lit. The reward of reading this interesting semi-autobiographical story is that, love it or not, either way it will have you thinking and talking about it. You may even come away with a little more compassion for the struggles within these streets." www.moorerhouse.com/hheatmag Read an exclusive excerpt from this highly anticipated hip-hop soul novel! Coming Sweetest Day 2007! Chapter 23 Braid my Hair! "You still coming through to braid my hair?" Terrell asked me when I called him. "I was just calling you to let you know I'd be there in an hour and tell you to make sure you wash it before I get there," I told him, as I ironed my clothes. "You already know I'm on point. I just got done washing it with that 'Herbal Essence' shampoo and conditioner you gave me. That stuff smells good, but I ain't havin' no orgasm like in the commercial." The both of us had a good laugh at that. "You must be talking to Terrell to be laughing all like that on the phone," Claudea said, as she walked into the room. "And you know it!" I said with a bright smile on my face. "Tell him I said what's up," she said loud enough for him to hear. "I know you heard that with her big mouth," I asked into the phone. "Tell her I said what's the deal," he replied. "He said what's the deal, Claudea." "Tell him he better take good care of my sister or he'll be dealing with me," she playfully said. "Shut up!" I told her. "Tell her we got this under control," Terrell said. "We got this under control," I told her. "He heard what I said," she replied with a roll of her eyes and walked back out of the room. I laughed at my little sister and threw a pillow at her back. "That girl crazy," I said to Terrell. "That's good to know," he replied with a laugh of his own. "Look I'm going to let you get ready and eat me a bowl of Lucky Charms until you get here." "Alright, sweetie, see you soon." I blew him a kiss through the phone and he returned it. When I hung up the phone, Mookie walked into the room smiling. Claudea told me you were spending the weekend with Terrell," she said. "Yeah," I told her with a grin from ear to ear.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New York Times Bestseller! In the aftermath of the Steroid Era that stained the game of baseball, at a time when so many players are so rich and therefore have a sense of entitlement that they haven't earned, ESPN baseball commentator Tim Kurkjian shows readers how to love the game more than ever, with incredible insight and stories that are hilarious, heartbreaking, and revealing. From what Pete Rose was doing in the batting cage a few minutes after getting out of prison, to why everyone strikes out these days and why no one seems to care, I'm Fascinated By Sacrifice Flies will surprise even longtime baseball fans. Tim explains the fear factor in the game, and what it feels like to get hit by a pitch; Adam LaRoche wanted to throw up in the batter's box. He examines the game's superstitions: Eliot Johnson's choice of bubble gum, a poker chip in Sean Burnett's back pocket. He unearths the unwritten rules of the game, takes readers inside ESPN, and reveals how Tony Gwynn made baseball so much more fun to watch. And, of course, Tim will explain to readers why he is fascinated by sacrifice flies.

Book excerpt: Bestselling author Larry Crabb cuts to the heart of the biblical view of marriage: the "one-flesh" relationship. He argues convincingly that the deepest needs of human personality—security and significance—ultimately cannot be satisfied by a marriage partner. We need to turn to the Lord, rather than our spouse, to satisfy our needs. This frees both partners for "soul oneness," a commitment to minister to our spouse's needs rather than manipulating them to meet our own needs. With "soul oneness" comes renewed "body oneness," where couples enjoy sexual pleasure as an expression and outgrowth of a personal relationship. The Marriage Builder also identifies three building blocks essential to constructing marriage: the grace of God, true marriage commitment, and acceptance of one's mate. Discussion questions are included to aid couples who want to dig into it and apply the principles to their own lives and marriages. The Marriage Builder is for anyone who longs to transform marriage from trial to triumph.

This book was released on 2002-11-14 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a comprehensive account of the major philosophical works on friendship and its relationship to self-love. The book gives central place to Aristotle's searching examination of friendship in the Nicomachean Ethics. Lorraine Pangle argues that the difficulties surrounding this discussion are soon dispelled once one understands the purpose of the Ethics as both a source of practical guidance for life and a profound, theoretical investigation into human nature. The book also provides fresh interpretations of works on friendship by Plato, Cicero, Epicurus, Seneca, Montaigne and Bacon. The author shows how each of these thinkers sheds light on central questions of moral philosophy: is human sociability rooted in neediness or strength? is the best life chiefly solitary, or dedicated to a community with others? Clearly structured and engagingly written, this book will appeal to a broad swathe of readers across philosophy, classics and political science.

Book excerpt: Their odds were 100,000 to one. Her faith was 1 in a million. In The Gift of Love, bestselling fiction author Amy Clipston shares her story of almost losing the love of her life to kidney disease and the ultimate sacrifice that kept their family together. An ordinary woman who cherishes family above all else, Amy was challenged in every way—from her strength of character to the depths of her faith to the close-knit family that surrounds her. Enduring the good, the bad, and the really bad, she was determined to help her husband once again be the husband and father their family needed. Amy’s story will give hope and encouragement to anyone who finds themselves waiting on God. Staring down adversity, Amy and her family received the most important gift of all, the gift of love. And regardless of your situation, this gift can be yours too. An inspirational story of strength and determination, The Gift of Love is the triumph of one woman’s faith against all odds, and a soul-filling reminder that no matter how hard life gets, it is worth fighting for.

Book excerpt: Little attention has been paid to Emma Jung's role in the history of analytical psychology and in the life of C. G. Jung. This extended biographical essay by Imelda Gaudissart, originally published in French, provides us with a carefully detailed view of this remarkable woman. Gaudissart's sensitive depiction of Emma Jung reveals a very real woman confronted with an unexpected life and challenged to develop in ways that, for a wife and mother of that period, were almost unimaginable. She worked closely with her husband, C. G. Jung, and Sigmund Freud, becoming herself an analyst, and she was instrumental in establishing the earliest institutions for analytical psychology. The issues Emma Jung faced on her path to individuation will resonate with those of many women today. "The importance of Emma Jung in the life of C. G. Jung has often been either taken for granted or underestimated, and her rightful place in the history of analytical psychology has rarely been given serious consideration. Imelda Gaudissart has managed to correct this imbalance and to provide us with a highly nuanced portrayal of this remarkable woman without falling into idealization or caricature. Any understanding of Jung is incomplete without an understanding of Emma's contribution. I highly recommend this book." --Tom Kelly, past president of the International Association for Analytical Psychology "The psychodynamics of the relationships between Emma, Carl, Sabina, and Toni are fascinating, and Emma's composure and contributions under such difficult circumstances are miraculous. This is a story about the amazing varieties of love in this world--always combined, sooner or later, with some sort of a pain but always stronger in the end. Beyond therapists and historians of psychology, this book serves all who want to grow, but who are sometimes frustrated by the trials of life. Emma's achievements have so much to teach us." --John Cerullo, professor of history, University of New Hampshire at Manchester "Imelda Gaudissart has the great merit of having molded the biographical material about Emma Jung-Rauschenbach into an interesting and moving essay. She helps to keep alive the memory of this remarkable, brave, and generous woman, my beloved grandmother." --Jost Hoerni, one of Emma Jung's nineteen grandchildren Imelda Gaudissart has a master's in psychopathology and has been a Jungian analyst for more than thirty years. She is the coauthor, with her husband Pierre, of a new translation of the I Ching. Married and head of a large family, she lives in Tours, on the Loire Valley. Kathleen Llanwarne, English by birth, now lives in Brussels where she has worked as a translator for thirty years. Her interest in the work of C. G. Jung and in Jungian analysis dates back even further.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Which will be the victor: hatred or love? Mid-18th century North America is a hotbed of unrest between many Native American tribes, who are feuding over territory. By this time, most of the Kiowa bands have been pushed west by the Lakota, who are on the move southward from the Great Lakes region. These invaders from the north want the game-rich, lush pasture lands of the territory for themselves. However, one small Kiowa band is determined to remain in their early homelands in the region of what will be one day known as eastern South Dakota. These two enemy tribes are brought face-to-face through the vision of a young Kiowa medicine man. Sky Dancer, a beautiful, Kiowa widow, and a proud Lakota warrior, Dark Horse, are forced to marry in order to create an alliance between their peoples. Right from the beginning they clash in a tests of wills, loathing each other on sight, making a happy marriage seem out of the question. Will the sacrifice that is asked of them save their tribes? Can these two enemies overcome their initial hatred to find love in an unlikely place or will distrust keep them from the reward they both crave?
