Enjoy this secret baby book by Bestselling billionaire authors Michelle Love and Scarlett King... I don’t believe in seconds chances, Especially when they come in the form of Tiffany. The only woman I’ve ever loved. The only woman to shatter my heart and skip town like I never mattered. She hasn’t been the only woman in my bed, But she’s the only woman that I could never forget. The day she left, I swore I’d do everything to forget her, But hell if the feelings don’t come rushing back the minute I see her. What the hell is she doing back in this town? She’s still as beautiful as the day she left—but something’s different. The little girl she brought back home with her, Looks exactly like me. I’ll be damned if she thinks she’s going to show up here, With zero explanation and secret so big it could blow up my entire life. I’m going to make sure she knows the pain she caused me, One slow, toe-curling orgasm at a time. Revenge can be sweet, And I plan to make sure she knows exactly what she missed out on. I just have to keep my heart from falling for her all over again.

Told in short, fierce staccato narrative verse, Long Way Down is a fast and furious, dazzlingly brilliant look at teenage gun violence, as could only be told by Jason Reynolds.

Payback
Author: Thane Rosenbaum
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 022604369X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 325
Book Description
We call it justice—the assassination of Osama bin Laden, the incarceration of corrupt politicians or financiers like Rod Blagojevich and Bernard Madoff, and the climactic slaying of cinema-screen villains by superheroes. But could we not also call it revenge? We are told that revenge is uncivilized and immoral, an impulse that individuals and societies should actively repress and replace with the order and codes of courtroom justice. What, if anything, distinguishes punishment at the hands of the government from a victim’s individual desire for retribution? Are vengeance and justice really so very different? No, answers legal scholar and novelist Thane Rosenbaum in Payback: The Case for Revenge—revenge is, in fact, indistinguishable from justice. Revenge, Rosenbaum argues, is not the problem. It is, in fact, a perfectly healthy emotion. Instead, the problem is the inadequacy of lawful outlets through which to express it. He mounts a case for legal systems to punish the guilty commensurate with their crimes as part of a societal moral duty to satisfy the needs of victims to feel avenged. Indeed, the legal system would better serve the public if it gave victims the sense that vengeance was being done on their behalf. Drawing on a wide range of support, from recent studies in behavioral psychology and neuroeconomics, to stories of vengeance and justice denied, to revenge practices from around the world, to the way in which revenge tales have permeated popular culture—including Hamlet, The Godfather, and Braveheart—Rosenbaum demonstrates that vengeance needs to be more openly and honestly discussed and lawfully practiced. Fiercely argued and highly engaging, Payback is a provocative and eye-opening cultural tour of revenge and its rewards—from Shakespeare to The Sopranos. It liberates revenge from its social stigma and proves that vengeance is indeed ours, a perfectly human and acceptable response to moral injury. Rosenbaum deftly persuades us to reconsider a misunderstood subject and, along the way, reinvigorates the debate on the shape of justice in the modern world.
