Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four Sisters By: Glenn Willis Pace Four Sisters is an intriguing, action-packed story, based on the age old, continuous struggle between law enforcement and the criminal element… good versus evil. The story begins when a deal is struck by the Brotherhood of America’s Salvation (BOAS), a group of powerful, wealthy individuals interested in hand-picking the officials running cities all over the United States. Their target is a man named Waters who is running for mayor of Philadelphia. To this end, the Brotherhood enters a $26 million contract with a group known as the Correctors, to whom they assign the task of ‘eliminating’ this man on Election Day, should he be the winner. The Correctors are a group of highly-educated, well-trained, and very experienced assassins. This group consists of men and women with the signs of the Zodiac as their code names, with Taurus as their leader. This assignment is particularly difficult because of a twenty-five-year-old pact made with a man on the other side of the law known as Archer, to stay out of Philly. Not only is Archer a retired cop, but his four daughters are all in law enforcement. The pact has caused these two groups to become intertwined, unbeknownst to the four sisters. Make your way through the labyrinth of plot twists and turns with this family as they become aware of the identity of their combatants and the danger involved. Who will win in the end and at what cost?

Download or read book Double Cup Love written by Eddie Huang and published by One World. This book was released on 2017-03-07 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the author of Fresh Off the Boat, now a hit ABC sitcom, comes a hilarious and fiercely original story of culture, family, love, and red-cooked pork Eddie Huang was finally happy. Sort of. He’d written a bestselling book and was the star of a TV show that took him to far-flung places around the globe. His New York City restaurant was humming, his OKCupid hand was strong, and he’d even hung fresh Ralph Lauren curtains to create the illusion of a bedroom in the tiny apartment he shared with his younger brother Evan, who ran their restaurant business. Then he fell in love—and everything fell apart. The business was creating tension within the family; his life as a media star took him away from his first passion—food; and the woman he loved—an All-American white girl—made him wonder: How Chinese am I? The only way to find out, he decided, was to reverse his parents’ migration and head back to the motherland. On a quest to heal his family, reconnect with his culture, and figure out whether he should marry his American girl, Eddie flew to China with his two brothers and a mission: to set up shop to see if his food stood up to Chinese palates—and to immerse himself in the culture to see if his life made sense in China. Naturally, nothing went according to plan. Double Cup Love takes readers from Williamsburg dive bars to the skies over Mongolia, from Michelin-starred restaurants in Shanghai to street-side soup peddlers in Chengdu. The book rockets off as a sharply observed, globe-trotting comic adventure that turns into an existential suspense story with high stakes. Eddie takes readers to the crossroads where he has to choose between his past and his future, between who he once was and who he might become. Double Cup Love is about how we search for love and meaning—in family and culture, in romance and marriage—but also how that search, with all its aching and overpowering complexity, can deliver us to our truest selves. Praise for Eddie Huang’s Double Cup Love “Double Cup Love invites the readers to journey through [Eddie Huang’s] love story, new friendships, brotherhood, a whole lot of eating and more. Huang’s honest recounting shouts and whispers on every page in all-caps dialogues and hilarious side-commentary. Huang pulls simple truths and humor out of his complex adventure to China. His forthright sharing of anecdotes is sincere and generates uncontrollable laughter. . . . His latest memoir affirms not only that the self-described “human panda” is an engaging storyteller but a great listener, especially in the language of food.”—Chicago Tribune “An elaborate story of love and self-discovery . . . Huang’s writing is wry and zippy; he regards the world with an understanding of its absurdities and injustices and with a willingness to be surprised.”—Jon Caramanica, The New York Times “Huang is determined to tease out the subtle and not-so-subtle ways in which Asian-Americans give up parts of themselves in order to move forward. . . . Fortunately for us, he’s not afraid to speak up about it.”—The New Yorker “Huang connects in Chengdu the same way he assimilated in America—through food, hip-hop and a never-ending authenticity, which readers experience through his hilarious writing voice and style.”—New York Daily News
Download or read book Saved written by Jack Falla and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2015-11-10 with total page 308 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Veteran Boston goaltender Jean Pierre Savard sees stardom and the money it brings as fate's make-up call for a life in which he lost his father, his wife, and most of his self confidence for anything not involving saves or sex. Now late in his career, Savard and his teammate and best friend, Cam Carter, are trying to fulfill their boyhood dreams of winning a Stanley Cup before they retire. A surprise late-season trade pits the friends against each other in a playoff series both could lose but only one can win. Saved takes the reader into the rinks, dressing rooms, planes, buses, and hotels that are the backdrop to the long grind of an NHL season. That grind is made bearable by the likes of players such as Bruno Govoni, whose cell phone ring tone is the orgasmic moaning of a porn star Loretta (Lash) LaRue; of Phil "Flipside" Palmer, the only person besides the Kingsmen who knows all the words to "Louie Louie" or that "Child of the Moon" was the flipside of the Rolling Stones' "Jumpin' Jack Flash"; and team enforcer Kevin Quigley, who claims all his fights are retaliations, "but sometimes I retaliate first." Most sports novels bring the game to the reader. Saved brings the reader to the game. Praise for Jack Falla "Falla's graphic portrayal of a violent sport (and its colorful players) and his insider's view of how hockey is played, coached, and officiated is exciting, surefire entertainment." -- Publishers Weekly on Saved "Literary hot chocolate that will warm your heart." ---Robert Lipsyte, The New York Times, on Home Ice "The best hockey book ever." ---John Buccigross, ESPN sportscaster, on Home Ice "Possibly the best hockey book since Ken Dryden's The Game." ---Toronto Globe and Mail, on Home Ice
