Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone has that family member, loved one, or friend who battles some form of addictionfrom drugs and alcohol, to sex, gambling, and even spending. In Crackheads Need Love Too, author Deidra Lee Thompson helps you understand that anyone struggling with addiction has deeper rooted issues, hurts, and past experiences that have caused them to turn to the addiction as a source of comfort. Based on her personal experiences with her husbands addiction to crack, Thompson offers Christian-based advice on how to deal with and help a loved one suffering from addiction. With ample scriptural references, Crackheads Need Love Too shows how Gods word communicates that love covers a multitude of wrongs. We must learn to love the addict in the right manner that helps them to seek and gain freedom from these entanglements. Sometimes that manifests in tough love. Other times it manifests in setting limits with and for the person. She suggests that believers must have faith to believe and see the promises God work in the lives of those cast away by society, yes even crackheads. Offering a Christian perspective on addiction, Crackheads Need Love Too shares both a personal story and extends hope to others who are experiencing similar situations.

Book excerpt: Lisa Lennox transports readers to the heart of the crack era—the South Bronx, New York City, 1989. In the late 1980s and early 90s, the crack epidemic swept through inner city communities like the plague. Mothers abandoned their children and took to the street for a hit. Fathers sold everything they owned to get a taste. The crackhead was rampant. Some neighborhoods were never the same. Enter Laci Johnson, a beautiful, smart, privileged teenage girl from across town, who teams up with The South Bronx Bitches—an infamous girl group known for chasing men and money. When the SBB becomes envious of Laci they devise a plan to destroy her life. Finding love in the most unexpected of places, Laci turns to a local drug dealer to help save her and heal the wounds of her new addiction. Through Laci and a host of entertaining characters, Crackhead vividly captures the essence of an era and the devastating, sometimes fatal, consequences of addiction.

Book excerpt: “Iced is a powerhouse. . . . Ray Shell writes beautifully. The story is heartbreaking. I kept putting it down and picking it up again—it won’t let me go.”—Maya Angelou A timeless tale of one man’s decline into the depths of addiction that is at both a shocking study of the addict’s life, and a deeply compelling and often uplifting tale of human love and loss. First published at the height of the crack cocaine epidemic thirty years ago, Ray Shell’s “powerhouse” (Maya Angelou) of a novel is as timely and relevant today as it was in 1994. It is the story of Cornelius Washington, a young upper-middle-class Black man blessed with burning talent and ambition, who enjoys experimenting with drugs—a dangerous pastime that gradually becomes a destructive addiction. Now a middle-aged crackhead, Cornelius ponders his life and the choices that have led him here. Written as a series of immersive stream of consciousness diary entries, Iced captures the despair and dashed dreams of a man caught between the harsh realities of his present and the adventures and upheavals of his past—a youth marked by a host of characters both intriguing and terrifying. A complicated man both compelling and maddening, sympathetic and defiant, Cornelius tries desperately to break free from his addiction, a struggle that ends in defeat time and time again. Despite the thought loops that lead to his bad choices, this painfully realistic character elicits hope for his survival, even though he will likely meet a devastating end. Resonant and haunting, illuminating and heartbreaking, Iced paints a portait of being Black in America, and the ways in which marginalized communities are targeted and ignored, left to suffer the consequences of policies made by powerful people ignorant and uncaring of their lives. It is a novel that transcends time, offering a glimpse of the past that is present in our lives today.

Book excerpt: The lawyer turned on the tape recorder, handed his client a cigarette, and lit it for him. Black drew hard, squinting as the smoke rushed into his lungs. "Where do you want to start?"the lawyer said, lighting a cigarette of his own. "I guess there’s only one place to start; at Broad and Erie." Johnny Podres, a politician whose record against corruption had been propelling him straight to the mayor’s office, is found murdered in a North Philly crack house. Enter Samuel Jackson, a.k.a. Black, a drug addict who knows better, a man embittered by the fact that he can’t seem to escape from his addiction to crack cocaine or, for that matter, from himself. Though he was once a family man with a wife and son, Black’s only concern these days is getting his next high, that is, until he stumbles across a friend and fellow addict, Leroy, and both become prime suspects in the Podres murder. Black and Leroy hook up with two female pipers: Clarisse, a registered nurse who is slowly losing to crack any semblance of a respectable life, and Pookie, who already has lost it. Soon the hunt is on for all four as they try to stay one step ahead of a police department under tremendous pressure to solve the case—because if a killer isn’t found soon, this could blow up into one of the biggest scandals in Philadelphia history. Solomon Jones weaves a suspenseful story against the backdrop of corruption in the Philadelphia police department and centers it on a group of drug addicts who, in the process of fleeing the law, come to terms with their own addiction, leading to some devastating consequences.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In my mental meanderings I came across a thought, "Where does God fit into the scheme of things?" Upon realizing God is the scheme of things, I settled on the thought that God is the scheme I should follow. In these musings I was given the idea, we're all schemers. I was given the revelation to promote the goodness of God and I say this with God as my witness. The thing is God is the faithful witness. Faith without works is dead. So I wanted to cast aside the dead weight of the unfaithful and add some life to this life we live. Because in Genesis 1:2, God said, "Let there be light," and it was. It wasn't the sun, moon, or stars, but the true light of the world in the form of his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, who truly is Genesis 1:2, the light of the world. "Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, 'I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life'" (John 8:12). Jesus being the light of the world and me about to slip into darkness, quite naturally, I reached for the marvelous light instead. I wanted to pass on to others in the form of this book, Spiritual and Social Commentary. The commentator has commentated that I should write a spiritual and social commentary.

Book excerpt: Wide-ranging in research, enthusiasm, and geography, Dan White's Under the Stars reveals a vast population of nature seekers, a country still in love with its wild places. “The definitive book on camping in America. . . . A passionate, witty, and deeply engaging examination of why humans venture into the wild.”—Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild From the Sierras to the Adirondacks and the Everglades, Dan White travels the nation to experience firsthand—and sometimes face first—how the American wilderness transformed from the devil’s playground into a source of adventure, relaxation, and renewal. Whether he’s camping nude in cougar country, being attacked by wildlife while “glamping,” or crashing a girls-only adventure for urban teens, Dan White seeks to animate the evolution of outdoor recreation. In the process, he demonstrates how the likes of Emerson, Thoreau, Roosevelt, and Muir—along with visionaries such as Adirondack Murray, Horace Kephart, and Juliette Gordon Low—helped blaze a trail from Transcendentalism to Leave No Trace.

Book excerpt: Dr. James Verraday is a professor of forensic psychology specializing in eyewitness recall and criminal profiling. He's a brilliant original thinker with a passion for social justice and a very antagonistic relationship with authority, especially the police force. So when Detective Constance Maclean appears in Verraday's lecture hall at the end of one of his classes, he bristles. But the body of a young woman has just been found in a cranberry bog south of Seattle, and Maclean is convinced that this murder is tied to an earlier killing. The Seattle police already have a suspect in custody for that case, but Maclean suspects the lead detective is knowingly putting away an innocent man to boost his numbers and quiet his critics. Verraday reluctantly agrees to use his skills as a profiler to help out with the investigation—if only to satisfy his own conviction that law enforcement is riddled with corruption. They form an unlikely alliance and soon find themselves tied up in a deadly game to find a serial killer whose wealth and influence make him almost untouchable.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dive into the epic conclusion of the LOVE in the USA series with 'Adore Her, More of Her: Daisy & Belmont, #2.' In this emotionally charged finale, the boundaries of time blur, and a love story for the ages unfolds, proving that the heart's capacity to love, endure, and persevere knows no limits. Our protagonists, Belmont and Daisy, didn't expect an ordinary love story. From the fiery intensity of their first encounter, their relationship was destined to be anything but typical. Committed heart and soul after just one electrifying week, they believed they could face anything. Yet, life's harsh realities quickly overshadowed their passionate beginning. Daisy's spirited independence clashed with Belmont's protective nature, creating a chasm filled with misunderstandings and unmet expectations. However, the magic that brought them together refuses to let go. And just when their love matures into a testament to their trials, the unthinkable happens—Belmont disappears, swallowed by a past shrouded in mystery. Unbeknownst to Daisy, Belmont's covert life has caught up to him, leaving their family incomplete once more. But Belmont has not just married a lover; he's married a fighter. Daisy, fueled by an unbreakable love and a resolve of steel, is ready to move mountains to find the man who owns her heart. As she embarks on a perilous journey of discovery, danger, and undeniable faith, one truth becomes clear: their love story is a tapestry of the past, present, and future, and their happily ever after hangs in the balance. 'Adore Her, More of Her' delivers a powerful finale to the LOVE in the USA series, weaving suspense, passion, and unwavering love into an unforgettable tapestry.
