Let Me Stay: A Memoir By: Iris Douglas This book is written to portray some very happy memories of a wonderful childhood growing up in the countryside in Ireland. It is an unsurpassed privilege to have been blessed with so much love and honesty and innocence, to have had bestowed upon me the magic of being alive and to have been shown a wide-eyed wonder and awe of the the beauty around me. The combination of the people rich in character and humor and the humility and strength of those same people to survive the back breaking work, the stress of how to make ends meet and of being exposed to the harshness of a cold, wet and windy winter's day, has transferred to me a positive and uplifting strength set by their example. The lesson I have learned is to take life as it comes for there are many things over which we have no control. "Don't make a mountain out of a mole hill". No matter how bad one's day gets, there is always one small thing in the day that is good or beautiful or at least very nice. And that is what will save the day. "The way a crow shook down on me The dust of snow from a hemlock tree Has given my heart a change of mood And saved some part of a day I had rued". - Robert Frost.

Book Description
Secret identities, second chances, drama, desire: It’s all going down in Miami Beach in this tantalizing novel from the bestselling author of Pull Me Close, which was hailed by Aurora Rose Reynolds as “a heart-gripping story about . . . the power of love.” April: Walking away from Matt Moreno was the hardest thing I’ve ever done. Lying to him was a close second, but for his safety, I had no other choice. I was undercover, working to put some nasty people behind bars. But when Matt nearly recognizes me on Lincoln Road a year later, all those very real feelings come rushing back. Now that my assignment’s almost over, will he understand why I lied? Why I had to leave? Most important, can he ever forgive me? Matt: I was madly in love with June Simpson . . . or, at least, with the woman I thought was June. Then she just disappeared while my family’s nightclub went through hell. And after months of searching, when I think I’ve finally found that sexy, raspy voice and those exquisite blue eyes, she slips away once more. Turns out, “June” is actually Detective April White. She’s been playing me the whole time. And she’s about to rock my world all over again. No cheating. No cliffhangers. And no dress code. Don’t miss Sidney Halston’s Panic series: PULL ME CLOSE | MAKE ME STAY | KISS ME BACK | WHAT ABOUT US And look for all of her hard-hitting MMA romances: AGAINST THE CAGE | FULL CONTACT | BELOW THE BELT | LAID OUT | FIGHTING DIRTY | STACKED UP Praise for Sidney Halston’s first Panic novel, Pull Me Close “A magnificent story full of deep emotion that will get you straight in the ‘feels.’ . . .
