Book Description
For three gay men in love, opening the closet door could be a risky move. Sheriff Casey Barlow has a slick, media-savvy challenger out to beat him in the upcoming election. Casey's damned good at his job, but he hasn't kissed the right asses, and early polls suggest voters like his opponent's style. Coming out now, let alone revealing his relationship with two men, could sink any hope of keeping his badge. Scott Edison has a real shot at the NHL. He's playing the best hockey of his life. Whenever he can, he travels home to his gruff sheriff and their laid-back cowboy, but there are no out gay players in the NHL. As a rookie working his ass off to be called up, he can't afford to make waves. Will Rice always figured he'd live alone, managing Graham and Annmarie Slater's cattle ranch, but a hot, young hockey player and a compact, muscled lawman rearranged his plans. Even though he's older and lanky and ordinary, he's been sharing their lives and their beds. He doesn't need to be out-- isn't sure he ever wants the Slaters to know about him. Life's good the way things are. Then Graham and Annmarie are killed in a hit and run that may not be an accident. As Will grieves, and Casey investigates, the coming changes will shake all their lives. ** this is a re-edit and expansion of the story in the "Hunting Under Covers" anthology

Book Description
Growing up in the 1960’s and 70’s, then maturing to adulthood and entering the workforce in the 80’s has created almost a schizophrenic identity for Bryce F. Derneher. Derneher faces life with a multitude of conflicts between family, career, love interests, friends and life goals. Today’s world doesn’t respect quality or values; instead, speed-to-market and efficiencies in workflows are the corporate ideals. In Bryce’s heart, he knows that the deep-rooted good values from yesteryear are hidden within most people. People are just afraid today to show them. At least he has to believe in his heart that people are just afraid to show their values. Surely, people aren’t as bad as their daily actions in life. From the 2001 perspective, values demonstrate weakness in the marketplace. Values make the worker a liability and less important to a corporation then the dollar in the coffer at the end of the day. The dollar is number-one! People are number two. Values are bad business. Profit margins are the only concern. The most curious aspect of life today is what happens when values meet the technologically cold world of the 21st century. Can the person true to his values survive?

Book Description
Based on a Navy SEAL's inspiring graduation speech, this #1 New York Times bestseller of powerful life lessons "should be read by every leader in America" (Wall Street Journal). If you want to change the world, start off by making your bed. On May 17, 2014, Admiral William H. McRaven addressed the graduating class of the University of Texas at Austin on their Commencement day. Taking inspiration from the university's slogan, "What starts here changes the world," he shared the ten principles he learned during Navy Seal training that helped him overcome challenges not only in his training and long Naval career, but also throughout his life; and he explained how anyone can use these basic lessons to change themselves-and the world-for the better. Admiral McRaven's original speech went viral with over 10 million views. Building on the core tenets laid out in his speech, McRaven now recounts tales from his own life and from those of people he encountered during his military service who dealt with hardship and made tough decisions with determination, compassion, honor, and courage. Told with great humility and optimism, this timeless book provides simple wisdom, practical advice, and words of encouragement that will inspire readers to achieve more, even in life's darkest moments. "Powerful." --USA Today "Full of captivating personal anecdotes from inside the national security vault." --Washington Post "Superb, smart, and succinct." --Forbes

Languages : en
Pages : 235
Book Description
Every story has a beginning... Every Saga begins with Changes... Do werewolves exist? Jimmy Walls never gave it a thought. Jimmy was a shy, quiet man who thought he had a normal life. When his world turned upside down, everything changed. Taking the job at Ravenswood, he hoped for the best. After an unusual animal out on the prowl mauls several people, he discovers a dark secret happening around him. The secret revolves around the strange man who seems to be living in the building. Again, do werewolves exist? Jimmy is about to find out that some myths are real. A Werewolf's Saga When history began, the human race lived as nothing more than cattle. A great group of creatures known as the Blood Walkers ruled the world. To keep a balance with their human prey, the Walkers and their made kin, gave their cattle a civilization in exchange for flesh and blood. The world was peaceful until a small band of humans with great powers known as the Wanderers emerged from the Walker families. With them, the Walkers strained with living. The human race became restless and soon learned how to fight for their right to live. The world erupted into war, until a new breed of Moonwalker, the Black Wolf, stepped from the chaos. With him came the turning of the tides. With him, the world broke even and a truce was forged. The Walkers won the night and the humans won the day. The Wanderers continued moving through both worlds, and now, in the shadows of the modern world, darkness lingers. A great evil lives and with it, the Black Wolf has returned.

He took out his pistol from its holster and without warning shot Sean twice in the stomach. Sean could feel his life draining out of him. Zamatev walked towards Sean. He took another drink from the bottle. When it was empty, he threw it into the dense bush. ‘This one is for blowing up my base Sergeant,’ he said and shot Sean again. Sean didn’t feel the bullet; his whole body was so numb that it didn’t signal any pain in his brain. ‘You see Sergeant, I know that it was you and your pig brother who was responsible for demolishing my base, only now I’m the one who is doing the demolishing.’ Zamatev got so carried away that he kept on squeezing the trigger. Mercifully Sean was dead before the clip was empty.
