Book Description
"A heart wrenching forbidden romance. A rockstar you can’t help but love. A strong heroine to admire. And a love meant to be. Scarlett Cole takes you apart and puts you back together again." ~ Carly Phillips, NY Times Bestselling Author Matt Loving Izabel Bryson should be the easiest thing in the world. Heck, she’s been the inspiration for at least half a dozen of the songs he’s written for his rock band, Sad Fridays. He’s loved her for a decade. But she’s his best friend and fellow-band mate’s little sister, and he promised a decade ago that he’d never put his hands on her. She can never be his, no matter how much he craves her. Izabel Loving Matt Palmer is the most hopeless thing in the world. The hours she spends working at the Manchester homeless shelter only go so far in distracting her from the painful truth. He doesn’t want her. Because she screwed up that awful night two years before when she slept with Matt’s brother. He will never be hers, no matter how much she yearns for him. When a good deed leads to one bed, and one night of ruthless honesty, everything is laid bare. They belong together, but acting on it will cost them everything.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
A new novel of artful understatement about mortality, estrangement, and the absurdity of life from the acclaimed author of Unformed Landscape and In Strange Gardens On a day like any other, Andreas changes his life. When a routine doctor’s visit leads to an unexpected prognosis, a great yearning takes hold of him—but who can tell if it is homesickness or wanderlust? Andreas leaves everything behind, sells his Paris apartment; cuts off all social ties; quits his teaching job; and waves goodbye to his days spent idly sitting in cafes—to look for a woman he once loved, half a lifetime ago. The monotony of days has been keeping him in check; now he hopes for a miracle and for a new beginning. Andreas’ travels lead him back to the province of his youth, back to his hometown in Switzerland where he returns to familiar streets, where his brother still lives in their childhood home, and where Fabienne, a woman he was obsessed with in his youth, visits the same lake they once swam in together. Andreas, still consumed with longing for his lost love and blinded by the uncertainty of his future, is tormented by the question of what might have been if things had happened differently. Peter Stamm has been praised as a “stylistic ascetic” and his prose as “distinguished by lapidary expression, telegraphic terseness, and finely tuned sensitivity” (Bookforum). In On a Day Like This, Stamm’s unobtrusive observational style allows us to journey with our antihero through his crises of banality, of living in his empty world, and the realization that life is finite—that one must live it, as long as that is possible. Praise for Unformed Landscape: “Sensitive and unnerving. . . . An uncommonly intimate work, one that will remind the reader of his or her own lived experience with a greater intensity than many of the books that are published right here at home.” —The New Republic Online “If Albert Camus had lived in an age when people in remote Norwegian fishing villages had e-mail, he might have written a novel like this.”—The New Yorker “Unformed Landscape has a refreshing purity, a lack of delusion, a lack of hype.”—Los Angeles Times

Book Description
“LOVE is a haphazard thing that blows like the wind this way and that and then, having found a nook to settle in, quiets down and beats in a heart full of haphazard hope.” And so begins the story of Jess, an unapologetic Indian woman in her mid-twenties caught between two careers and the attention of two very different women. Trying to write fiction at Starbucks while pretending to study for her MCATs, Jess balances her relationship with her live-in girlfriend, Anjali, and the a woman whom Jess meets randomly and believes she wholeheartedly loves, Vanessa. It takes betrayal, heartbreak, and a trip halfway around the world for Jess to find herself at the risk of losing all that ever mattered. While the characters in NIGHTS LIKE THIS are rooted in the South Asian LGBT community, their lives and stories, their dramas and heartbreaks are universal. For anyone who has ever loved or been loved, NIGHTS LIKE THIS is a story worth reading.

Help! I Don't Want to Feel like This!
Author: Samuel Richardson III
Publisher: Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.
ISBN: 1098089820
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
There are many who struggle at the loss of any kind and the rising thoughts of defeat, which can seem crippling to life. There are times when we need someone to talk to or with who can intervene as we travel on the highway to self-destruction. As it is, life all by itself can present us with situations and circumstances that can appear derailing because we are not sure how or what to do about them. If you lose a loved one, it can be a crippling event; however, everyone will not experience the same emotional tie or disconnection simply because of the nature of that relationship. Within the same family structure, there will be different reactions and feelings. It all depends on the depth of the relationship. And understand, the love we have for our family will always outweigh our ability to provide for them. In life, we find ourselves being caregivers to those whom we love and care for dearly. We give all we have regarding doing what we can with what we have, and some may still impose upon us the feelings of falling short simply from their prospective of what is being done. It will be these responses of disregard that push some, if not many, over the edge toward giving up, frustration, and even relational disconnection. We commit ourselves to provide care in areas that are beyond our understood abilities, only to at times be humiliated and aggravated to the point of giving up and shutting down. And while it is not fair to you, those who express their discontent with your efforts seem to not be concerned with what those negative comments may do to you. This is that part of life that can be daunting to the unsupported. This is that time in our lives when, if we are not sure of our mental resolve and spiritual determination to try knowing that help will be provided, we can easily find life more challenging than desired. So how do we get through these times? What do we do when it seems there is no support? Are we allowed to walk away when we feel we have nothing left to give? These are the kinds of questions that the author endeavors to bring clarity to. As a counselor by desire and having experienced many who have struggled with life's many challenges as a result of losing a loved one, the goal with this work is to provide some sense of guidance for those struggling with the thoughts of frustration and bewilderment. Will all your questions be answered? I am sure they will not, but at least, you will have a better grasp on why you are, where you are, in dealing with your struggle. Yes, as a pastor by calling, this work is laced with biblical insights that prayerfully will provide a sound and structured focus for the reader. This is a Christian counseling method using the strongest means of awakening possible, the Word of God. The primary intention of this book is to give the reader a spiritual understanding of the stress and frustration that may be taking place in their lives because of life's challenges because of loss. I want you to hear with your heart and mind and understand why you are having the experience you have. Yes, your thinking will be challenged, and what you call faith will be questioned, but your end resolve is in your acceptance of your reality of life.
