Martin's been diagnosed with ADHD, but he feels something about his diagnosis isn't right. The Ritalin he's prescribed doesn't seem to make a difference. When Martin's grades continue to sink no matter how hard he tries, his father writes him off as lazy and just plain stupid. His dad is convinced that Martin just needs to focus more on his studies and less on making movies. One night while out pursuing his passion on the city streets with his camera, Martin meets Stick and is introduced to the energetic and exciting pastime of parkour -- free-running. While filming Stick's flips and tricks, Martin begins to see a connection between how his brain interprets the world, all jumbled and fast-moving and out of order, and what the free-runners see. Camera in hand, Martin sets out to make a video that will show his dad what he sees, and hopefully get him to understand that Martin's real learning disability, dyslexia, has never been properly diagnosed.

This book tells the story of a young woman who grew up in a poor, single parent home, surrounded by drugs, violence, and welfare recipients. K'Dee was known to be smart, academically, but the question was: Did she have common sense? K'Dee has always aspired to have the finer things; however, life had a different plan. At a young age, she ran from her problems until she built up the courage to face them head on with prayer, perseverance, and persistence. If you want to know how she survived the pain, hurt, and agony of an abusive marriage, managed a family while moving ten times in one year, overcame depression, coped with the death of her mother, battled her own illness, and conquered love, while chasing her dreams...it's all here! Through it all, people wondered how she could wear a smile on her face, dress like a millionaire, and still be thankful to God. Through all that K’Dee was challenged with, she came out on the other side of life with self-esteem, expectations and standards as high as Mount Everest. This humorous, yet serious self-examination of K’Dee’s life is no exception to the hard work she produces.
One notorious hacker. One disgraced cyber crimes cop. One missing person case, and a fight for our lives. I’d spent my whole life running from the law. So when Quinn Radnor showed up on my doorstep, I decided I was taking prisoners. But I got more than I bargained for when he asked for my help. Quinn wasn’t your typical undercover cop, and having him stuck in my space, and my bed, proved to be a complication I couldn’t ignore. As I dug through his past, each new fact I revealed brought more questions than answers, and had me looking at him in a whole new light. Searching the globe for his young friend was our focus, but I couldn’t escape the riot of feelings the man brought to my quiet life. With my solitude interrupted, would his presence and skills be what was needed to save the teen, or was it already too late?
