“An atmospheric, multilayered, sex-positive romance.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) After an awkward first encounter, Birdie and Daniel are forced to work together in a Seattle hotel where a famous author leads a mysterious and secluded life in this romantic contemporary novel from the author of Alex, Approximately. Mystery-book aficionado Birdie Lindberg has an overactive imagination. Raised in isolation and homeschooled by strict grandparents, she’s cultivated a whimsical fantasy life in which she plays the heroic detective and every stranger is a suspect. But her solitary world expands when she takes a job the summer before college, working the graveyard shift at a historic Seattle hotel. In her new job, Birdie hopes to blossom from introverted dreamer to brave pioneer, and gregarious Daniel Aoki volunteers to be her guide. The hotel’s charismatic young van driver shares the same nocturnal shift and patronizes the waterfront Moonlight Diner where Birdie waits for the early morning ferry after work. Daniel also shares her appetite for intrigue, and he’s stumbled upon a real-life mystery: a famous reclusive writer—never before seen in public—might be secretly meeting someone at the hotel. To uncover the writer’s puzzling identity, Birdie must come out of her shell…discovering that the most confounding mystery of all may be her growing feelings for the elusive riddle that is Daniel.

Book Description
When outlaws in the Nueces Strip ruthlessly massacre innocents by the light of every full moon, Texas Ranger C. W. Wallace is dispatched to stop the next bloody murder. The crime and brutality rampant in the 1877 South Texas brush country threatens people in every community, but using Texas Rangers to combat the problem is as controversial as the violence itself, so C. W. rides alone and is rarely welcomed where he goes. To track the cattle thieves, he and other Rangers need the civilian population to become their extra eyes and ears. Clues at an isolated homestead suggest that a secretive young widow could be a valuable resource, but C. W. is hesitant to trust her. In an effort to identify the ringleaders, C. W. and the widow, Esther, ride breakneck for the border and illegally cross the Rio Grande into Mexico. But disaster plagues them, and C. W. realizes Esther is herself a target for death, even as his affections turn toward her. Now Ranger Wallace must do all he can to prevent Esther’s murder and discover where the marauders have planned the next moonlight massacre.

Languages : en
Pages : 285
Book Description
A guide to conscious living through the moon and her phases, incorporating wellness rituals, spellwork, and witchcraft for the modern seeker. We all know the moon. We all have a relationship with it. The earliest people obeyed her orbit, timed their months and holidays and celebrations and agriculture to the moon; the echoes of that system are still visible today, though the connection to the moon is often forgotten. Sarah Faith Gottesdiener is the leader of a movement to remind us of that lineage, guiding our rhythms and our sleep, our energy and our emotions, reminding us of our humanity and our magic. In her self-published Many Moons Workbooks and Lunar Journals, as well as her sold-out classes, she has guided over 50,000 readers to a deeper relationship with the moon, and through it, with themselves. This evergreen book will be an informative and comprehensive guide to lunar living, incorporating radical, self-empowering, and magical tools and resources for the beginner and experienced lunar-follower alike. Depending on where we are in our lives, depending on what we are feeling or what is happening around us, the moon allows us a space to invite ritual into our daily lives. The Moon Book will provide a framework on how to utilize the entire lunar cycle holistically, while offering ways for the reader to develop a personal relationship with their own cycles—energetic, personal, and emotional—through the lens of the moon’s phases.

Book Description
The Witch’s Complete Guide to Astrology is a modern guide for modern witches filled with practical interpretations of the zodiac that will help you tap into your innate power and find meaning in your daily life. Witchcraft is the practice of connecting a deeper power within yourself to the power within nature. Blending witchcraft with the celestial realm, the abundance of meditations and manifestations in this guide will help you unite with your intentions and the natural world around you to live a truly fulfilled life. While this book will not give you a simple spell to be happy or look into your future, it will give you a deeper understanding of your own nature and practice as a witch, as well as those closest to you (and, perhaps, those you should keep at arm’s length). This 168-page beginner-level guide—presented in a beautiful, illustrated hardcover format—includes the following: Introduction: A brief history of astrology, with a Wiccan’s perspective, and how witches use it in their craft; also, where and how to get your birth/natal chart. Signs of the Zodiac: An introduction to each sign (with their respective elements, modalities, symbols, rising signs, planets, etc.), with special crystals, herbs, magical rituals, and spells for each sign. Understanding the Magic of the Moon: An explanation of the moon’s importance in witchcraft, the lunar phases and rituals to do in each cycle, and signs of the moon with magic and rituals for each (such as best days to perform candle magic, intention setting, etc.). The Astrology Houses: What they are, how to use them, how the houses affect your witchcraft (and life), and a spell or ritual for each. The Planets: Their importance in witchcraft and modern life along with the herbs and crystals associated with each. Also, ideal spells for signs in the planets. Complete with meditations and mantras to guide you through the toughest parts of your craft, The Witch’s Complete Guide to Astrology is an essential part of any self-aware pagan’s library. By following your natal (birth) chart, this book will guide you in learning about your sun, star, and moon signs; your planets and houses; through how to care for yourself and your inner witch. Everything you need is already written in the stars; you just have to unlock your potential and manifest the future you deserve and desire. Discover today’s top trending mind, body, spirit topics with the Witch’s Complete Guide series from Chartwell Books.

That's what I've been trying to figure out since a traumatic brain injury made me "unfit to serve." I'm back in New Orleans, and picking up the shattered pieces of my past means I must confront where my life's journey began... and where it all might end. Luc: Long ago, Maggie May was mine. Not mine in the way you might think. She was mine because she was my only friend. Then Cash came along and we became brothers by something stronger than blood. We became brothers by choice. When tragedy struck, I was forced to make a decision that changed all our lives. I thought, after ten years, it was safe to come back home. I was wrong...
