Silas
Author: Jasinda Wilder
Publisher: Jasinda Wilder
ISBN: 194844593X
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 385
Book Description
We are the cast-offs, the forgotten, the broken; we are dark, dangerous men haunted by our violent pasts. The Guardian collects us, rehabilitates us, and gives us a new lease on life…if we follow a few, simple rules: Once you’re in, there’s no going back; never take a life; loyalty to the brotherhood above all. My brothers, the other Broken Arrows, Club Sin…that’s my life. And then I meet HER on the side of the road, barefoot, battered, and afraid of her own shadow. Immediately, I have one thought: protect her. That’s all I care about. It’s a tall order, because she’s from a world almost as violent as my own. But somewhere along the way, I realize she’s healing me as much as I am her. If we can survive her enemies and mine, life together could be pretty beautiful. That’s a big if, though…

Silas Jayne
Author: Bryan Alaspa
Publisher: Arcadia Publishing
ISBN: 1614232555
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
His name might not have the same notoriety that belonged to Al Capone or John Wayne Gacy, but Silas Jayne's life carved a similarly brutal arc through the Windy City's history. Even the mob was reluctant to compete with a man who burned his own horses alive for insurance money and ordered the assassination of his own brother in the same unhesitating fashion that he reportedly axed a flock of geese when he was six. Protected by bribery and intimidation, Jayne preyed on the innocence of the girls who took riding lessons in his stables and remained perversely untouched in the background of infamous Chicago crimes like the Schuessler-Peterson murders and the disappearance of candy heiress Helen Brach.

Depression
Author: C.R. Rice
Publisher: 4 Horsemen Publications, Inc.
ISBN: 1644503174
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
How quickly she had allowed herself to forget that nightmares often begin as the most pleasant of dreams. Averie should have known better. If things seem too good to be true, they often are. And on the night of the Silver Rose Ball, everything had definitely been too good to be real. The Princess laughed without care, danced as if there was no tomorrow, and let the elation of those around her lower her usually high walls. But in Averie's world, happiness and peace are just beautifully constructed illusions. Because once darkness sets its sight on you, genuine happiness isn’t an option. While she smiled out over the crowd, fear swallowed the faces of the ones standing below. Sickly sweet words sounded and pandemonium was unleashed upon the unsuspecting partygoers, painting them red. As Averie struggles to save the ones she can, it may take only a single moment to bring her to her knees. As Averie contends with her grief, can she still be the Princess people expect her to be?
