Book Description
Aubrey Miller is off to College and more than ready to leave her small town and the cheating ex that resides there. After being accepted into the most prestigious sorority at Murston College, Aubrey is confident that this is exactly where she is meant to be. At the sorority welcome party, Aubrey meets the man of her dreams. Jesse is everything her scummy ex-boyfriend could never be. There is only one small problem, Jesse's cousin Chase thinks that he claimed her first. Aubrey isn’t about to let some Neanderthal from the dark ages tell her who can and can not date. Just who does he think he is? Chase Walker is a full-blooded werewolf and the future Alpha of the Murston pack. Jesse and Chase have been best friends since childhood, but are now willing to lay down their lives for Aubrey. A little on the dramatic and obsessive side, but fate and their frenzied animal instincts can do that. Who can she trust with her heart? One man she loved at first sight, the other, no matter how hard she tries to ignore, he pulls heavy on her heart. Is it possible to love two men at the same time? Secrets begin to shed as quickly as clothing, while love and laughter turn into heartbreak and tears. With so many mysteries, not only at Murston, but also within her own family, who can she trust? Is she ready for the truth? Better yet, are you?

Book Description
Award-winning nature photographer Jim Brandenburg gave himself a challenge: for ninety days between the autumnal equinox and the winter solstice, he would take only one photograph each day. This exquisite book, now in softcover, is the result of that bold and immensely personal project. Through the accompanying essay, Brandenburg shares his innermost thoughts and passions as he witnesses the cycle of nature near his home in the northwoods of Minnesota. Brandenburg also contributes new photos and an Epilog that illustrates and discusses the devastating summer wind storm that wreaked havoc on the locations photographed for the original project.

Book Description
In this powerful and evocative memoir, Oscar-winning director and screenwriter, Oliver Stone, takes us right to the heart of what it's like to make movies on the edge. In Chasing The Light he writes about his rarefied New York childhood, volunteering for combat, and his struggles and triumphs making such films as Platoon, Midnight Express, and Scarface. Before the international success of Platoon in 1986, Oliver Stone had been wounded as an infantryman in Vietnam, and spent years writing unproduced scripts while taking miscellaneous jobs and driving taxis in New York, finally venturing westward to Los Angeles and a new life. Stone, now 73, recounts those formative years with vivid details of the high and low moments: we sit at the table in meetings with Al Pacino over Stone's scripts for Scarface, Platoon, and Born on the Fourth of July; relive the harrowing demon of cocaine addiction following the failure of his first feature, The Hand (starring Michael Caine); experience his risky on-the-ground research of Miami drug cartels for Scarface; and see his stormy relationship with The Deer Hunter director Michael Cimino. We also learn of the breathless hustles to finance the acclaimed and divisive Salvador; and witness tensions behind the scenes of his first Academy Award-winning film, Midnight Express. The culmination of the book is the extraordinarily vivid recreation of filming Platoon in the depths of the Philippine jungle with Kevin Dillon, Charlie Sheen, Willem Dafoe, Johnny Depp et al, pushing himself, the crew and the young cast almost beyond breaking point. Written fearlessly, with intense detail and colour, Chasing the Light is a true insider's story of Hollywood's years of upheaval in the 1970s and '80s, and Stone brings this period alive as only someone at the centre of the action truly can.
