Book Description
She'd Heard It Said Will Jackson was a control freak and a killjoy. He had been since they were kids. He'd made it his mission to come between Emma Willoughby and her best friend--his little sister--all their lives. But why? Until the day of the accident, Emma had always thought of herself as adventurous, not dangerous--And then her friend almost died. She desperately needed to apologize, to try to explain, if she could. Will had managed to keep the two apart while Tracy was in the hospital, but now that she was home in Harmony Valley, the winemaker wannabe had to understand that getting past this was the only way they could heal. And yet if Tracy was able to, Emma wasn't sure she could forgive herself. And Will had made it abundantly clear: he wouldn't sleep until he'd found retribution.

Simply Free
Author: Michael G. Hogan
Publisher: Abbott Press
ISBN: 1458222233
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 111
Book Description
When Michael Hogan started writing, he never set out to pen a poetry collection. He simply told stories of his dad and, over time, the stories became confessionals in rhyme. Watching someone suffer through the terrible disease of alcoholism taught Michael many life lessons--ones he never wanted to learn. The only way to exorcise those old demons was to write. Simply Free is a collection of words that ring true to any child, spouse, or family member of an addict. In "Something's Wrong, Dad," he gives voice to a child's fear. Who are you, Dad? You change too much Like when you drink, is that your crutch? What's in the bottle you crave so dearly? It doesn't help me see you clearly I pray, I pray for things to turn Steady my mind from the churn Only my dad controls the change Please, Dad, don't be so strange. Dedicated to his dad, Simply Free flowed much easier than Michael originally expected. He believed sharing his thoughts and feelings would be unsettling--instead, the poems set him free. Through words happy and sad, read of hope postaddiction and the love of a child for his father.

Pages : 334
Book Description
In my opinion this book is a must for anyone who is interested in spirituality and also for those that have lost their way or are looking for their reason for being here in this incarnation. A great book well worth the reading. -Chris Gaydon, Medium and Healer Are you yearning for the fulfillment of your dreams and wishes? Do you label them as unrealistic, unreasonable, or too risky and put them into the drawer of unrealized dreams? What is holding you back from following this clear call? It is our thoughts, which through time developed and grew into doctrines. Many of them do not originate from ourselves but were taken from our surroundings. Nevertheless, we own an unfailing monitoring centre inside of us. This instrument enables us to recognise the kind of thoughts or actions which match up with our True Self and which ones dont. This instrument is our feelings! Im Free will be a light that illuminates the path through the jungle of illusion and distortion back to your True Self. We did not come here to suffer, but to live a happy life in which we are the creator of our circumstances and not victims.
