Book Description
Get in and buckle up for the final laps through the heart-pounding twists and turns of this complete, fast-paced urban fantasy action-adventure series from Jami Gray. Ride shotgun with Rory Costas as she speeds through the spellbinding Arcane Transporter world, where powerful magical families make the mafia look like choirboys and connections are everything. If you’re addicted to the edge-of-your-seat thrill rides that keep you turning pages until the wee hours, you don’t want to miss out on this adrenaline laced fantasy series that has fans of Shannon Mayer, Lindsay Buroker, and H.P. Mallory demanding more! This box set contains the final three books in the Arcane Transporter series. 🏁 COLLISION COURSE A last-minute Guild delivery, a cursed treasure, and a nefarious revenge scheme sets Rory on a collision course with one of Arcane’s most wanted mages. After a last-minute delivery run for the Arcane Guild, Transporter Rory Costas encounters a new roadblock after a series of unexplained hazards leave her jumping at shadows. As she and her personal distraction, Zev Aslanov, wade through a mix-bag of money woes, broken hearts, and a legacy of cursed treasure to uncover the truth behind a tragic accident, they end up on a collision course with one of the Arcane’s most notorious mages. Will they unmask the true danger or veer fatally off course? 🏁 BLIND SPOT A council contract, an obscure relic, and a lethal vendetta with dodgy ramifications blindside Rory and pitch her into a slippery tailspin. Rory Costas’s latest contract with the Arcane Council threatens to send her careening off course when her assignment – engage in a lethal game of bait and switch – encounters unexpected hazards that leave her blindsided by an impossible choice that pits her integrity against her heart. When the dust finally settles, will Rory reclaim enough traction to survive unfamiliar roads ahead? 🏁 TERMINAL DRIFT Seething Family hostilities, a stunning classic car, and a last-minute trip to Sin City send Rory barreling towards a pivotal crossroad that will either put her in the driver’s seat or hurtle her into oblivion. Rory Costas has avoided straying from her lane while under review by the Arcane Council, but when she’s offered a chance to deliver a stunning classic ride to an anonymous buyer in Las Vegas, she takes an unplanned road trip. Unfortunately, byzantine Family hostilities call shotgun and turn a weekend getaway with her snuggle bunny and lethal Hunter, Zev Aslanov, into a dangerous detour where an anonymous player with an axe to grind lies in wait. Can she beat this deadly shell game or will history strike with venomous intent, leaving her future plans in shambles? “Jami Gray's Arcane Transporter series belongs on every urban fantasy fan's TBR list!” – Stefanie B., Line Editor, Red Adept Editing “The entire cast of characters in the book are rich and complex. The storyline draws you in for a wild ride.” – Amazon Review “I’m enjoying the hell out of this series. Well written with a pulse pounding pace, this is one of those books you can’t put down, and even though you hate to turn the last page, it is satisfyingly complete.”– Kat Hilner, Amazon Review

"I thought life was pretty much over." Paul Herman "I was afraid people wouldn''t see me for who I still was." Cathy Green "I didn''t need this to be a better person." Susan Douglas "I wasn''t sure I wanted to live ''this way.''" Kevin Wolitzky The above four people and 49 more just like them went on to find high levels of success and lead satisfying lives. Together they tell 53 stories of moving forward to meet all the challenges, fears, obstacles, and problems common to the life-altering circumstances after spinal cord injury, and doing it without benefit of wealth, large settlements or solid health coverage. Ranging in age from 21 to 67, disabled from three to 48 years they share 931 years of disability experience. Roll Models is a valuable new resource for recently injured people and their families, and for nurses, therapists, psychologists and all other professionals who treat, work with and care for people with spinal cord injury. Straight from the horse''s mouth, survivors explore their experiences with disability and answer many questions those in rehab are asking: Early Thoughts What were your thoughts immediately following injury? What were your initial thoughts and reactions regarding SCI and the future? The First Years What were your biggest fears during that first year or so? How did you get past those early fears? Changes, Obstacles and Solutions How much different are you now, compared to how you were before injury? What''s been the biggest obstacle? How did you address these obstacles? Finding What Works What have been the most difficult things for you to deal with since injury? What''s the worst thing about having an SCI and using a chair? What''s been your biggest loss due to injury? Is SCI the worst thing that ever happened to you? Tell me something about your problem solving skills. How do you deal with stress? What do you do to relieve stress? Salvations, Turning Points and More Was there any one thing that was your "salvation" or key to your success? Was there a turning point for you when you began to feel things were going to get better? What personal factors, habits and beliefs have helped you the most? SCI and Meaning Do you find any meaning, purpose or lessons in your disability? Did any positive opportunities come your way because of your injury? What''s your greatest accomplishment? What are you most proud of? "A wonderful roadmap with many alternate routes to living and thriving with SCI." Minna Hong, SCI survivor and Peer Support Coordinator/Vocational Liaison, Shepherd Center "Avoids the trap of providing a ''one size fits all mentality'' and provides solutions as varied as the individuals used as examples. Accentuates the positives while not sugar coating the difficulties. Essential reading."

Filled with examples of real people and their real experiences."

Book Description
OVER TEN MILLION COPIES SOLD #1 INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER What are the most valuable things that everyone should know? Acclaimed clinical psychologist Jordan B Peterson has influenced the modern understanding of personality, and now he has become one of the world's most popular public thinkers, with his lectures on topics from the Bible to romantic relationships to mythology drawing tens of millions of viewers. In an era of unprecedented change and polarizing politics, his frank and refreshing message about the value of individual responsibility and ancient wisdom has resonated around the world. In this book, he provides twelve profound and practical principles for how to live a meaningful life, from setting your house in order before criticising others to comparing yourself to who you were yesterday, not someone else today. Happiness is a pointless goal, he shows us. Instead we must search for meaning, not for its own sake, but as a defence against the suffering that is intrinsic to our existence. Drawing on vivid examples from the author's clinical practice and personal life, cutting-edge psychology and philosophy, and lessons from humanity's oldest myths and stories, 12 Rules for Life offers a deeply rewarding antidote to the chaos in our lives: eternal truths applied to our modern problems.
