Book Description
There's a mysterious couple who live up in the woods. One is a midget covered in tattoos you can't quite pin an age on who used to work at a circus in Ohio (which was closed down years ago), and the other is a pink haired seven year old girl who's about as tame as a pissed off Monkey inside your China cabinet breaking dishes over its own head laughing at you. But, why would they live in a tree house and carry PINK Swords! The town drug lord is goanna find out why you need to be nice to short strangers, while the head Cop John Polanski does nothing more than watch it all happen before his eyes. Sixty something Morty Finkelstein owns a corner market with the only gas station in town. He's happy with his lot in life and loves his wholesome yet beautiful wife, Pam. The question is, is she having an affair with the old ex-Marine who lives in a trailer in the back of the store? Not likely. Sam, is in his seventies and is into beer and cigarettes and nightmares of the old war. But, if she's not doing something below board, what are they talking about so much lately that they're keeping from her husband Morty? In the meantime, hubby is routinely busy minding the store, as usual. He trusts Pam. Morty's birthday is coming up, and there's goanna be one big surprise waiting for him. And, it's slightly more than cake, ice cream, and presents. She always plans a surprise party each year.This one's a darker birthday he'll never forget! That is, if he shows up... Morty always forgets his birthday is coming up. And, sometimes he drifts off and no one can find him. Must be the Marijuana. He doesn't know how his life is soon goanna be changed forever. But, if your reality changes, you might not care, depending upon how much Pot you smoke. Although he's a small businessman now, he's still an easy going beer bellied Hippie from the nineteen sixties at heart who's bald on top with long grey hair on the sides. Life can get strange; what's real can get obscured. It can spin out of control when you aren't watching. Morty's a nice guy, but there's not enough Pot in the world that can save him from what's coming. Take a walk up the trail across the street from Morty and Pam Finkelstein's store. Then, if you dare, walk into the dark wooded forest, climb up the rope ladder straight to the tree house door and knock on it hard. Never underestimate anyone who carries a two foot blade of sharp hardened steel. This ain't no kid's tree house.
Meet Duff!

Frank Duff
Author: Finola Kennedy
Publisher: A&C Black
ISBN: 1441104224
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
This is a new biography of the Founder of the Legion of Mary, one of the Catholic Church's most effective charitable agencies in the world today. In the Legion of Mary, Duff built an organisation that depended on each member playing his or her part, rather than on any individual leader. Describing responsibility as 'the biggest tonic on earth', he believed in sharing responsibility, and warned against thinking that others cannot do things as well as we can ourselves. The Legion of Mary is an organisation of lay Catholics dedicated to every form of social service and Catholic action for the welfare of the Church and of society. Duff's vision of a lay movement was revolutionary in its time and as recounted in this book explains why he faced so much opposition from Church authorities, especially in Ireland. But Duff, who is on the path towards canonisation, exemplified the Catholic tradition of charitable work at its best - that you do not preach by lecturing but by works of mercy, compassion and unselfish altruism. This is an inspiring tale.

A gorgeous stranger wanders into his life one summer night and Jacob knows he's in trouble; he's going to break all his rules and probably his heart. Duff Cleveland knows better than to open himself to love, that’s how you get hurt. Jacob De Rossi is a family guy; he’s got the house and the picket fence he's just missing the man. Something about Jacob has Duff wanting more, but how many just one more time’s can a dedicated hookup artist justify? He can hardly handle the life he’s living, having an actual boyfriend is impossible isn't it? Jacob’s not letting Duff go easily. It’s obvious, to him at least, that Duff needs someone in his corner, and he is the man for the job. Will Duff recognize his heart is safe in Jacob's hands, or turn his back on the one thing in his life that makes sense? tragic past, high heat, found family, hurt to comfort, reluctant lover, family is everything, the wooing is the hardest part, angsty, when grandparents interfere... The Heart Heist is a first-person, dual POV, following Duff Cleveland and Jacob De Rossi as Jacob woos Duff's reluctant heart. No cliffhanger, HEA guaranteed. Heat level, 4+. Can be read as a standalone but you may enjoy it even more if you read Feinted Heart first.
