Book Description
Don’t run if you get caught unless you want claws in your spine and teeth in your neck and two hundred pounds of lust-crazed wolf on your back. First contact between humans and the alien species they’ve nicknamed “wolves” couldn’t have been more tranquil. The wolves shared their superior technology and knowledge in exchange for a new home, and thousands of wolves abandoned their aging spacefaring ships to settle in Earth’s forested mountain regions. But the wolves held some secrets too close and humanity has begun paying the price. Once every three years, humans become sexual prey to a species that has no control over the urge to mate because of an unexpected and devastating attraction to human scent. Heat season has arrived and a pack of wolves are bearing down on Ian. His only choice, when he’s rescued by an Alpha drawn in by his scent: Submit or die… M/M romance. Romance for anyone who likes hot male/male loving, alpha males, and alien mates with powerful mating instincts!

Weapon of Choice
Author: Fredrick E. Ayres
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674241096
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 257
Book Description
How ordinary Americans, frustrated by the legal and political wrangling over the Second Amendment, can fight for reforms that will both respect gun owners’ rights and reduce gun violence. Efforts to reduce gun violence in the United States face formidable political and constitutional barriers. Legislation that would ban or broadly restrict firearms runs afoul of the Supreme Court’s current interpretation of the Second Amendment. And gun rights advocates have joined a politically savvy firearm industry in a powerful coalition that stymies reform. Ian Ayres and Fredrick Vars suggest a new way forward. We can decrease the number of gun deaths, they argue, by empowering individual citizens to choose common-sense gun reforms for themselves. Rather than ask politicians to impose one-size-fits-all rules, we can harness a libertarian approach—one that respects and expands individual freedom and personal choice—to combat the scourge of gun violence. Ayres and Vars identify ten policies that can be immediately adopted at the state level to reduce the number of gun-related deaths without affecting the rights of gun owners. For example, Donna’s Law, a voluntary program whereby individuals can choose to restrict their ability to purchase or possess firearms, can significantly decrease suicide rates. Amending Red Flag statutes, which allow judges to restrict access to guns when an individual has shown evidence of dangerousness, can give police flexible and effective tools to keep people safe. Encouraging the use of unlawful possession petitions can help communities remove guns from more than a million Americans who are legally disqualified from owning them. By embracing these and other new forms of decentralized gun control, the United States can move past partisan gridlock and save lives now.

Superpower
Author: Ian Bremmer
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 0143109707
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Bestselling author and strategist Ian Bremmer argues that Washington’s directionless foreign policy has become expensive and dangerous. Since the end of the Cold War, the U.S. has stumbled from crisis to crisis in Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Libya, Syria, and Ukraine with no clear strategy. Bremmer urges us to think more deeply about what sort of role America should play and how it should use its superpower status. He explores three competing options: • Independent America: America should no longer take responsibility for solving other people’s problems, and instead should lead by example. • Moneyball America: Washington can’t meet every international challenge, but we can and should focus on opportunities and defend U.S. interests where they’re threatened. • Indispensable America: Only America can defend the values on which global stability increasingly depends. We will never live in a stable world while others are denied their most basic freedoms. There are sound arguments for and against each of these choices, but we must choose. Washington can no longer improvise a foreign policy without a lasting commitment to a coherent strategy.

Pages : 256
Book Description
A modern day tale inspired by events from the Bible. A husband and wife united by love, separated by secrets. What happens when your faith is tested? What happens when temptation comes calling? Who do you call on? Is love enough to save a marriage when temptation, deceit and lust are thrown into the mix? Enter into the world of Trey and Andrea Edwards as they are faced with CHOICES. To me, a writer's words are his or her voice. There is no greater gift from the Lord than being able to have one's voice heard and received with power and impact on people's lives that can lead to transformation of their mind, body, soul, and ultimately their lives. If anyone listens to my voice and it has the power to impact and the ability to transform, it's not of me it is of the Lord. I will continue to have a voice, and I pray someone will listen. W. Granville Brown graduated from Hamilton University with a degree in Business Administration after serving proudly in the United States Army. For the past twenty plus years, he worked hard to build Fita Insurance Group into a well-respected insurance agency until he sold his business to pursue other endeavors; that allowed him to use his skills and experience in sales and marketing. After many years of writing manuscripts, he overcame his fears and submitted one to an editor who encouraged him to pursue his life-long dream of becoming a writer.
