Wicked City
Author: Ace Atkins
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101207825
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 502
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Quinn Colson series comes a “noir crime classic”(Mystery Ink) about one of the most notorious towns in American history. When crime-fighting attorney Albert Patterson is gunned down in a Phenix City, Alabama, alley in the spring of 1954, the entire town seems to pause for just a moment—and when it starts up again, there is something different about it. A small group of men meet and decide they have had enough, but what that means and where it will take them is something they could not have foreseen. Over the course of the next several months, lives will change, people die, and unexpected heroes emerge—like “a Randolph Scott western,” one of them remarks, “played out not with horses and Winchesters, but with Chevys and .38s and switchblades.” Peopled by an extraordinary cast of characters, both real and fictional, Wicked City is a novel of uncommon intensity, rich with atmosphere, filled with sensuality and surprise.

Book Description
IZZIEWhat happens after the 'Happily Ever After'? That's what my husband and I were finding out. A year ago, my life had changed forever when I crossed pathes with Coyle - the towering, tattooed biker boss of the Knuckleheads Motorcycle Club - America's most notorious vigilante biker gang. Coyle took my innocence, my heart, and helped me grow from a frightened little girl into a tough, capable woman - and I discovered excitment and steamy pleasures I'd never even imagined along the way. But now Coyle and I are trying to settle into a quiet life in Washington state - with two horses in the yard, and a baby on the way. Those days of action, adventure and intrigue are behind us... Right? Only: How far behind us? Because late one night, at my impromptu baby shower, the phone rings and the life we'd thought we'd left behind lands right back on our doorstep - guns blazing, engines revving, and life and death on the line. Our past has come back to kill us - and the question is: Do Coyle and I still have what it takes to survive? COYLEFor fifteen years, I was the big, bad biker boss of The Knuckleheads Motorcycle Club. Then, on a suicide mission in Mexico, I met the love of my life - Izzie - and a cause worth dying for became something worth living for, instead. But can a rolling stone ever settle down? And after surviving so many years of fist-fights, gun-battles and high-speed chases, why does it feel like retirement's going to be the death of me, instead? I don't know. All I do know is that when the phone rings late at night, and my old buddy from the FBI warns: "They're coming to kill you," it's like pulling on a comfortable, old pair of boots. Izzie and I fell in love in the midst of chaos, danger and bloodshed. I've got a feeling making it through tonight is going to be like falling in love all over again. Too Mean To Die is a 75,000 word, stand-alone, bad-boy MC romance that's part of the Knuckleheads MC series - filled with steamy scenes of explicit sensuality, high adventure, intrigue and more. Enjoy!

I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die

Pages : 257
Book Description
A compassionate, shame-free guide for your darkest days “A one-of-a-kind book . . . to read for yourself or give to a struggling friend or loved one without the fear that depression and suicidal thoughts will be minimized, medicalized or over-spiritualized.”—Kay Warren, cofounder of Saddleback Church What happens when loving Jesus doesn’t cure you of depression, anxiety, or suicidal thoughts? You might be crushed by shame over your mental illness, only to be told by well-meaning Christians to “choose joy” and “pray more.” So you beg God to take away the pain, but nothing eases the ache inside. As darkness lingers and color drains from your world, you’re left wondering if God has abandoned you. You just want a way out. But there’s hope. In I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die, Sarah J. Robinson offers a healthy, practical, and shame-free guide for Christians struggling with mental illness. With unflinching honesty, Sarah shares her story of battling depression and fighting to stay alive despite toxic theology that made her afraid to seek help outside the church. Pairing her own story with scriptural insights, mental health research, and simple practices, Sarah helps you reconnect with the God who is present in our deepest anguish and discover that you are worth everything it takes to get better. Beautifully written and full of hard-won wisdom, I Love Jesus, But I Want to Die offers a path toward a rich, hope-filled life in Christ, even when healing doesn’t look like what you expect.

The Woman Who Decided to Die
Author: Ronald Munson
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0199716145
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 218
Book Description
Advances in medical technology force us to struggle with new and often gut-wrenching decisions. How do we know when someone is dead and not just in a coma? Should a convicted felon qualify for a new heart? In The Woman Who Decided to Die, novelist and medical ethicist Ronald Munson takes readers to the very edges of medicine, where treatments fail and where people must cope with helplessness, mortality, and doubt. Using personal narratives that place us right next to doctors, patients, and care givers as they make decisions, Munson explores ten riveting case-based stories, told with a writer's eye for illuminating detail. These include a young woman with terminal leukemia more worried about her family than herself, a stepfather asked to donate a liver segment to his stepson, a student who believes she is being controlled by invisible Agents, and a psychiatrist-patient who prizes his autonomy until the end. Raising fundamental questions about human relationships, this is an essential book about the very nature of life and death.
