Book Description
The threat of a terrorist attack. Confusing dreams. Pesky demons. Multiple puzzles. An alleged Halloween deadline. What do all of these things have in common? Veronica Pearl. As Agent Pearl, she is the Special Investigative Consultant for the Southwest Region, specializing in fighting terrorism and counter-terrorism by day. As Veronica, she is plagued by fighting demon counterparts in her dreams by night; sometimes because they have to do with a case she is working, sometimes because demons simply don’t like her. She is a busy lady. Her newest case begins accidentally, at first glance. What appears to be a large outbreak of food poisoning at a local mall food court is just the beginning of the puzzle. In addition to her favorite (and only) niece being too close for comfort to that event, there is also considerable chatter about an upcoming terrorist attack. If what she uncovered is accurate, the planned attack on San Antonio, her beloved home, would be like nothing she has ever seen before, using a bioweapon she never could have even imagined. Marrying scientific advancements with real life needs is a huge benefit to society. Of course, everything can be twisted away from good towards evil, but how could somebody plan something like this? Why would they want to hurt innocent people in order to benefit themselves? And just how wide does the terror web spread? The heads of two biotech companies in San Antonio appear equally guilty and able to conspire about something like this. Is the attack allegedly planned for Halloween night when so many children and adults will be out in public and susceptible to harm? It will take an entire team to figure out this threat that has been years in the making, and stop it before the world as she knows it changes irreversibly.

Make Love Whenever Possible When Married with Children
Author: Leslie Kaplan
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1441531289
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 145
Book Description
"Make Love Whenever Possible When Married With Children" is playful and poignant with spirited vignettes like "Seduce your spouse with humor," "Be a flasher," and "Experience the post-vasectomy sexual renaissance." Leslie Mancillas and Peg Melnik teamed up to write the book based on the following prescription program for staying sane within the madness of family life: 1. Be an opportunist. Make love whenever possible. 2. Date your spouse. Don't put off dating for two decades until your kids are conveniently in college. 3. Tend to your spouse. Even adults need to be nurtured. 4. Plan for chaos. 5. Become a top-flight negotiator. Marriage is one long, unwieldy negotiation. Keep closing the deal. 6. Keep close to your spirit. Find ways to nurture yourself. The co-authors firmly believe couples are living their most challenging years when they have children under their roof. Parents inhabit a different world than do those without children, one ruled by the needs of small people. The sheer responsibility that comes with parenthood can, over time, complicate even the healthiest marriage. While the divorce rate in America is at an astonishing 62 percent, staying happily married with children is not an insurmountable challenge as long as you realize it requires a kind of vigilance. It requires perspective, insight and, most importantly, the energy to keep a strong connection with your spouse. The authors use wisdom and wit to detail valuable tips drawn from their own experiences both positive and negative. The book is broken into six chapters, with a series of vignettes approximately one to three pages in length. Some of the more visual scenes from the book include playing hooky with your spouse, renewing marriage vows at Notre Dame and absent-mindedly driving to work with a plateful of cookies flying off the roof of the car, littering the road. Mancillas and Melnik's 100-page survival guide will no doubt be a compelling read, the best-selling bible for the married-with-kids crowd.
