For the first time Jaxon is falling for a woman who is his equal—and their combustible chemistry proves the feeling is mutual. But the hotter their relationship gets, the more Zora worries about what will happen when Jaxon discovers the ploy behind the passion.

Joe Maloney is out of place in this world. His mother wants him to be a man, and he can’t be that yet. His only friend, Stanny Mole, wants to teach him how to kill, and Joe can’t learn that.

The transformative power of imagination and beauty flows through this story of a boy who walks where others wouldn’t dare to go, a boy with the heart of a tiger, an unlikely hero who knows that sometimes the most important things are the most mysterious.

Book Description
This book by Maturin Murray Ballou is an impressive work with a lovely side story to it. The story is set on the island of Cuba and is an account of Ballou's temporary residence on the island.

He has managed to activate all the senses of readers by vividly describing this tropical clime. Ballou wrote the novel under his pseudonym, Lieutenant Murray.

Pages : 322
Book Description
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Downstairs Girl, Stacey Lee, an evocative novel about a teen aroma expert who uses her extrasensitive sense of smell to help others fall in love—while protecting her own heart at all costs. Perfect for fans of When Dimple Met Rishi and I’ll Be the One and now in paperback. Sometimes love is right under your nose. As one of only two aromateurs left on the planet, sixteen-year-old Mimosa knows what her future holds: a lifetime of weeding, mixing love elixirs, and matchmaking—all while remaining incurably alone. For Mim, the rules are clear: falling in love would render her nose useless, taking away her one great talent. Still, Mimosa doesn’t want to spend her life elbow-deep in soil and begonias. She dreams of a normal high school experience with friends, sports practices, debate club, and even a boyfriend. But when she accidentally gives an elixir to the wrong woman and has to rely on the lovesick woman’s son, the school soccer star, to help fix the situation, Mim quickly begins to realize that falling in love isn’t always a choice you can make. At once hopeful, funny, and romantic, Stacey Lee’s The Secret of a Heart Note is a richly evocative coming-of-age story that gives a fresh perspective on falling in love and finding one’s place in the world.

A Secret Gift
Author: Ted Gup
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1101444630
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
An inspiring account of America at its worst-and Americans at their best-woven from the stories of Depression-era families who were helped by gifts from the author's generous and secretive grandfather. Shortly before Christmas 1933 in Depression-scarred Canton, Ohio, a small newspaper ad offered $10, no strings attached, to 75 families in distress. Interested readers were asked to submit letters describing their hardships to a benefactor calling himself Mr. B. Virdot. The author's grandfather Sam Stone was inspired to place this ad and assist his fellow Cantonians as they prepared for the cruelest Christmas most of them would ever witness. Moved by the tales of suffering and expressions of hope contained in the letters, which he discovered in a suitcase 75 years later, Ted Gup initially set out to unveil the lives behind them, searching for records and relatives all over the country who could help him flesh out the family sagas hinted at in those letters. From these sources, Gup has re-created the impact that Mr B. Virdot's gift had on each family. Many people yearned for bread, coal, or other necessities, but many others received money from B. Virdot for more fanciful items-a toy horse, say, or a set of encyclopedias. As Gup's investigations revealed, all these things had the power to turn people's lives around- even to save them. But as he uncovered the suffering and triumphs of dozens of strangers, Gup also learned that Sam Stone was far more complex than the lovable- retiree persona he'd always shown his grandson. Gup unearths deeply buried details about Sam's life-from his impoverished, abusive upbringing to felonious efforts to hide his immigrant origins from U.S. officials-that help explain why he felt such a strong affinity to strangers in need. Drawing on his unique find and his award-winning reportorial gifts, Ted Gup solves a singular family mystery even while he pulls away the veil of eight decades that separate us from the hardships that united America during the Depression. In A Secret Gift, he weaves these revelations seamlessly into a tapestry of Depression-era America, which will fascinate and inspire in equal measure. Watch a Video

Unlocking the 7 Secret Powers of the Heart
Author: Shai Tubali
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1620558130
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 154
Book Description
An invitation to discover and develop your heart powers and tap into heart energy • Features accessible yet profound wisdom about the power of the heart and approaches for tapping into heart energy • Reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential • Supports individual heart-work by offering simple and practical exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven effective through many years of practice The heart is more often associated with vulnerability than hidden powers. We generally feel the need to protect our heart, building high walls after experiences of emotional pain and hurt. This response is unconscious, and since the modern world teaches us to rely on the brain to guide our life and actions, many of us find it hard to connect to the power and skills within our own hearts. Addressing the fears and feelings of insecurity that can arise and prevent us from opening up to the treasures we hold within, Shai Tubali reveals that the heart, often perceived as our most vulnerable and fragile place, is in fact the source of our greatest potential. Providing practical advice, exercises, meditations, and visualizations proven through his own heart-work practice, he shows how to tap into the heart’s energy field and easily activate its seven secret powers: wisdom, vulnerability, forgiveness, ability to love, infinite energy, transformation, and self-acceptance. He explains how our modern education system develops our mind perception only, focusing on the goal of being successful and urging us constantly to be faster and better. Not only does this not bring happiness and fulfilment, but it may even cause stress and illness. Showing how to transition from mind to heart perception, Tubali helps us understand more about our heart’s skills and how to implement its powers by healing inner energetic and emotional blockages. Calling for a change from one-sided mind perception and behavior, Tubali urges us to get in touch with our core and surrender completely to our heart energy, leaving all misconceptions behind and tearing down protective walls to discover our full potential. Unlocking the seven heart powers will lead to a deep sense of peace, balance, and fulfilment and enable you to approach life from a place of trust and love.
