Jimmi Lee's childhood is traumatic. Her father, T.R., addicted to alcohol and suffering from manic depression, is driven by demons from his past. He is particularly cruel to Jimmi. Pearl, her mother, enables their father at the expense of the children. Jimmi dreams of love, becoming rich, returning to her grandparent's ranch and taking the younger children with her. Angry and rebellious, Jimmi has migraine headaches and becomes dependent on codeine. She meets Edward, falls instantly in love and decides to marry him. She plots to extricate him from a long term affair; succeeds and marries him. Increasingly unhappy, she learns that money does not buy love, happiness, or security. All her pregnancies end in miscarriage; slowly she descends into an alcoholic hell. Alcoholism and an addiction to prescription drugs bring her to her knees. She cries out for help. Willa, Jimmi's sister, calls Edna, a member of Alcoholic Anonymous for help. This is the beginning of Jimmi's new life, one of happiness, peace of mind, and the love she had always dreamed of but had lost hope of finding. Examining her past, Jimmi sees Angels, masquerading as humans in the whirlwinds of her life, always pointing her in the right direction.
Angel in the Whirlwind is the epic tale of the American Revolution, from its roots among tax-weary colonists to the triumphant Declaration of Independence and eventual victory and liberty, recounted by Benson Bobrick, lauded by The New York Times as “perhaps the most interesting historian writing in America today.” Overwhelmed with debt following its victory in the French and Indian Wars, England began imposing harsh new tariffs and taxes on its colonists in the 1760s. Rebellion against these measures soon erupted into war. Bobrick thrillingly describes all the major battles, from Lexington and Concord to the dramatic siege of Yorktown, when the British flag was finally lowered before patriot guns. At the same time he weaves together social and political history along with the military history, bringing to life not only the charismatic leaders of the independence movement, but also their lesser-known compatriots, both patriot and loyalist, English and American, whose voices vividly convey the urgency of war. Illuminated by fresh insight, Angel in the Whirlwind is a dramatic narrative of our nation’s birth, in all its passion and glory.
In the midst of the remarkable revival of interest and belief in angels comes this handsomely illustrated reference work--the fruit of 16 years of research in Talmudic, gnostic, cabalistic, apocalyptic, patristic, and legendary texts. "A wacky and wonderful compendium of angelic lore".--Time. Illustrations.
Love and betrayal... A cool master of sensuality, Rafael Whitbourne, the Duke of Candover, earned his rakish reputation in the silken boudoirs of London’s highborn ladies, never giving away his hand or his heart. Then a vital mission for his government takes Rafe to Paris to work with the Countess Madga Janos, “the most beautiful spy in Europe.” He is appalled to discover that the smoky eyed temptress is no Hungarian countess, but the deceitful doxie who betrayed him a dozen years earlier—the only woman he ever loved, and the only one he’s ever despised. Margot Ashton wants nothing more than to walk away from her turbulent past and the mesmerizing man who ruined her life. But patriotism binds them together in a shadowland of intrigue where a diabolical plot may plunge a continent back into war—and a whirlwind of passion sweeps Margot and Rafe into a shattering passion that cannot be denied. *Romantic Times Reviewers Choice Certificate of Excellence "Mary Jo Putney is a consummate storyteller whose deep understanding of human emotions shines through in all her work.

A novel of breathtaking suspense from an author whose books are “edge-of-your-seat thrilling. Page-turners that don’t let up” (Louise Penny, #1 New York Times–bestselling author).

“Reads like a World War II thriller, only better because every word is true.… One of the great untold stories of history. Robert Gandt has brought it vividly, unforgettably to life.” —Steven Pressfield, best-selling author of Gates of Fire In 1948, when the newly founded nation of Israel came under siege from a coalition of Arab states, a band of volunteer airmen from the United States, Canada, Britain, France, and South Africa arrived to help. They were a small group, fewer than 150. Many were World War II veterans; most of them knowingly violated their nations’ embargoes on the shipment of arms and aircraft to Israel. The airmen risked everything—their careers, citizenship, and lives—to fight for Israel. The saga of the volunteer airmen in Israel’s war of independence stands as one of the most stirring—and little-known—war stories of the past century.
