Book Description
Gaven grew up a bastard without a father...until the day his noble-born sire came to claim him, destroying his home and killing everyone around him. But Gaven's suffering has only just begun. Because his father has given him to a legendary warrior named Vlar to train him, both in battle and in bed. Both are terrifying to Gaven, as the worlds of warfare and of men loving men seem equally alien to him. Vlar, one of the infamous Finnarian race known for drinking blood, is as ruthless and powerful as he is unforgettable. Now Gaven faces a future without hope, his former life lost, given to be bonded to a frightening stranger... Vlar is a being of legend. He is powerful and utterly without mercy. Gaven has no choice but to submit to him. But when the chance comes to flee, Gaven takes it. Only Vlar is not a man who ever gives up what is his. There is a hidden side to Vlar, the opposite of the merciless warrior so deadly with a blade. This Vlar is surprisingly caring to Gaven, training him for bonding...and that care upends everything Gaven thought he knew of the warrior. Gaven's old life has been destroyed, but Vlar may just make him a mate...if only he can survive until then. Reader note: Previously released. Reader discretion advised: contains intense emotional elements, gay fantasy romance, and male male love

Book Description
Gaven Kerr provides the first book-length study of St. Thomas Aquinas's much neglected proof for the existence of God in De Ente et Essentia Chapter 4. He offers a contemporary presentation, interpretation, and defense of this proof, beginning with an account of the metaphysical principles used by Aquinas and then describing how they are employed within the proof to establish the existence of God. Along the way, Kerr engages contemporary authors who have addressed Aquinas's or similar reasoning. The proof developed in the De Ente is, on Kerr's reading, independent of many of the other proofs in Aquinas's corpus and resistant to the traditional classificatory schemes of proofs of God. By applying a historical and hermeneutical awareness of the philosophical issues presented by Aquinas's thought and evaluating such philosophical issues with analytical precision, Kerr is able to move through the proof and evaluate what Aquinas is saying, and whether what he is saying is true. By means of an analysis of one of Aquinas's earliest proofs, Kerr highlights a foundational argument that is present throughout the much more commonly studied Thomistic writings, and brings it to bear within the context of analytical philosophy, showing its relevance to the contemporary reader.

Book Description
Hi, my name is Neven. I'm very attractive and come from a family that were never slaves. The family is very large and physically beautiful. Our family has always been wealthy. Once, they almost lost everything, but they came back with a vengeance, never to be without again by any means necessary. To this day, none of the elders in my family have never had to work and have been able to take care of their large families. My granny raised me and two of my older cousins. I have an amazing life that I was born in, and any problems I have ever had, for the most part, did not have to happen. I have always had very expensive things. The people in my life never knew how wealthy our family is, so they did extravagant things for me. I'm handsome, humble, and sometimes I can have a slick mouth, which they like; and if you push me, I will lose my head on you. I have very famous friends that, for the most part, don't know me. They just see the pretty picture and that I don't have to want for anything like some of them. I have more money than them.
