Book excerpt: “Bridging tenderness and violence, and brimming with danger and magic, The Girl Who Cried Diamonds will leave you breathless.” — Anuja Varghese, author of Chrysalis “In these 14 hard-edged and unapologetic stories, debut author Garcia tackles topics ranging from human trafficking and drug abuse to eating disorders and middle-age angst, and in no-frills prose, carves out bizarre and palpable realities, breathing strange life into a horde of depressed, deprived, and abused characters.” — Publishers Weekly The boundaries between realist and fabulist, literary and speculative, are shattered in this remarkable debut collection for readers of Carmen Maria Machado, André Alexis, and Angélique Lalonde A girl born in a small, unnamed pueblo is blessed—or cursed—with the ability to produce valuable gems from her bodily fluids. A tired wife and mother escapes the confines of her oppressive life and body by shapeshifting into a cloud. A girl reckons with the death of her father and her changing familial dynamics while slowly, mysteriously losing her physical senses. Infused with keen insight and presented in startling prose, the stories in this dark, magnetic collection by newcomer Rebecca Hirsch Garcia invite the reader into an uncanny world out of step with reality while exploring the personal and interpersonal in a way that is undeniably, distinctly human.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lady desiring vengeance seeks a highwayman’s help in this tale by an author whose novels are “the gold standard in historical romance” (Lisa Kleypas). Lady Leigh Strachan’s father governed the town of Felchester—until a religious zealot murdered her family and turned the village into hell on Earth. Now, there is room in her heart for only one thing: revenge. Leigh plans to kill her father’s murderer once she learns to aim a pistol, slash a sword, and ride a horse. She seeks out the Prince of Midnight, a legendary highwayman exiled to France, as her choice of tutors. But the man she finds in a crumbling French castle is no hero. Half deaf and suffering from vertigo, S. T. Maitland can scarcely walk, much less wield a sword atop a dancing stallion. Yet for reasons she can’t explain, she remains with him, steeling her heart against the sight of his gold-streaked hair, green eyes, and brows adorned with a devilish curl at the arch . . . Women mean nothing but trouble to the highwayman, so he wishes Leigh were less alluring. Alas, she is beautiful, with a piercing gaze and a determined spirit. Despite his broken balance, the loss of his horse, and the price on his head, he vows to return to England with her. He cannot resist the challenge—or the chance to sacrifice everything for love . . . The New York Times–bestselling author of Flowers from the Storm and Shadowheart, Laura Kinsale writes an “unfailingly brilliant and beautiful” romance (Julia Quinn).

Download or read book The Awakening of Miss Dana written by Taylor Johnson and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-20 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "No I will never be alright. I will always be hunted and tormented and truly I deserve to die." The story of Taylor’s life, has made me laugh, made me cry, and most importantly made me realize that while most people go through life and think they have it hard or rough, they have never walked a mile in the shoes of someone who has had it worse. She has AWAKENED me to the harsh realities that our native cultures have endured, and not through a history book lesson, but through the eyes of an individual who has survived it. She shows how domestic and cultural violence impacts society, and the individuals that have endured its most brutal lessons. Taylor has also showed that with a belief in one’s self, and with the power of love, that one can overcome steep adversity. Taylor was able to connect with me on a personal level, making it easier for me to understand exactly how and what she was feeling. The stories of her grandmothers let light into a world of pain, torment, and cruelty that spans multiple generations, and how it has impacted her life personally. It also allowed for the reader to experience the sub standard treatment of abused women and the cultural oppression of native cultures, both in her home country, and around the world. Allowing for the reader to see first hand, and to understand what true pain, abuse, and cruelty is. ~Mike Carey Business owner Noble Electric Portland, Indiana
