All Rachel Marcus wants is a cool job, a guy who has all his own teeth and a decent cup of tea. Is that too much to ask? Rachel Marcus has a great life and an amazing job as a top copywriter at an advertising agency in Johannesburg, or rather Rachel Marcus HAD a great life and an amazing job as a top copywriter at an advertising agency in Johannesburg - right up until she got fired. Forced to sell everything she owns and leave Joburg in a hurry, Rachel decides to move to New York City, where she plans to make a fabulous life for herself and prove to everyone back home that she's not a complete disaster. Except the only job she can find is at a crap ad agency, with a hippie freak for a boss and an alcoholic drug addict for an art director. The only apartment she can afford is the world's smallest cockroach-infested rat trap. And all the men she meets are stalkers, ex cons and whack jobs.In fact, the only upside to her new life in the big apple is her new best friend - her frustratingly petite neighbour, Sue. Will Rachel Marcus ever get it together or is she destined to spend the rest of her life working on ads for sanitary pads, trawling Internet dating sites and dreaming of that elusive cup of Five Roses? Only time will tell, but one thing is for sure, living in the Big Apple will change Rachel's life forever.
“The fairest maiden, if ye proved to be thine saviour. Thine steady sword and courageous battle-cry shalt vanish, grant your warrior a wish of splendour and might. Let us be a destiny’s fate akin to Ordellius and Aviana, the star-crossed love that came to be and had always been to be.” – Dominic Goldwyn Calida Rhodes is the dutiful daughter of a seemingly esteemed faction member. The girl who is neither nobility nor commoner. In the between, she is forced to be independent and practical. Calida’s one desire had been to make paintings to escape home. As she grew older, any wishes were abandoned to take on her responsibility. It is the duty of unwed maidens to put their family first. In Eonifond, ladies of the court are expected to marry into a wealthy home. Spending their time basking in cakes and jewelry. Nobility live like gluttonous pigs whilst ignoring the plight of their commoners. The Marquess’ wedding reception changed everything for her. The announcement of her engagement to the earl of Weommadran, Dominic Goldwyn, shocked her and crushed her dreams of possibly fading into the woodwork. Then her father didn’t come home. It is up to her to find out why the nobles are suddenly all interested in him and why what happened to him is being swept under the rug.

She writes with compassion and insight, having lived much of her life in an environment where love was substituted with verbal and physical abuse, first within her immediate family then by choosing a partner who reflected that world. Her compassion for those who have suffered at the hands of loved ones and strangers resonates throughout this book. Through her experiences, she hopes that those who suffer from abuse will find their way out. The author resides with her husband in a quaint New England town where she enjoys entertaining family and friends, taking long walks, immersing herself in prayer, and praising God for the blessings and graces He has bestowed on her.
This modern classic of LGBT writing includes an introduction from Carmen Maria Machado, author of Her Body and Other Parties, and a new afterword from Lillian Faderman. Born in 1940, Lillian Faderman is the only child of an uneducated and unmarried Jewish woman who left Latvia to seek a better life in America. Lillian grew up in poverty, but fantasised about becoming an actress. When her dreams led to the dangerous, seductive world of the sex trade and sham-marriages in Hollywood of the fifties, she realised she was attracted to women, and that show-biz is as cruel as they say. Desperately seeking to make her life meaningful, she studied at Berkeley; paying her way by working as a pin-up model and burlesque dancer, hiding her lesbian affairs from the outside world. At last she became a brilliant student and the woman who becomes a loving partner, a devoted mother, an acclaimed writer and ground-breaking pioneer of gay and lesbian scholarship. Told with wrenching immediacy and great power, Naked in the Promised Land is the story of an exceptional woman and her remarkable, unorthodox life.
After the First World War, two final stragglers return to North East Scotland to pick up their old lives, Mary Cowie, once a 'gutter quine' or fish gutter, who served with the Elsie Inglis Scottish Women Hospitals field units, and Neil Findlay once the best fishing boat skipper in Buckie, now a shell-shocked wreck. They hope the old life will cure them, but find they have changed too much to settle down again. This is a story of a fishing community following the herring shoals around the coast in their steam drifters, and is rich in local characters like Aggie the young war widow, Jonathan the local doctor, Eric the skipper who retired too soon to make way for his sons. The shadow of the war refuses to go away for any of these but, with change, comes opportunity. Mary and Neil find their tribal and personal loyalties tested to the full as the herring fishing industry struggles to recover.

"I never meant to fall in love with Jesse James, but I might as well have tried to stop a tornado or a prairie fire. The summer that sealed our fate, when we saw each other with new eyes and our love began to grow, Jesse was all heat and light, and I was tinder waiting for a match." Zee Mimms was just nineteen in 1864-the daughter of a stern Methodist minister in Missouri-when she fell in love with the handsome, dashing, and already notorious Jesse. He was barely more than a teenager himself, yet had ridden with William Quantrill's raiders during the Civil War. "You'll marry a handsome young man," a palm reader had told her. "A man who will make you the envy of many. But . . . there will be hard times." Zee and Jesse's marriage proved the palmist right. Jesse was a dangerous puzzle: a loving husband and father who kept his "work" separate from his family, though Zee heard the lurid rumors of his career as a bank robber and worse. Still, she never gave up on him. And he earned her love, time and again. Cindi Myers is the author of more than forty novels, both historical and contemporary.

Ruth Bell Graham knew about prodigals--two of her five children were spiritual wanderers. This is not a "how to" book that dispenses easy advice on ways to win back a prodigal. Instead, it is a collection of readings one woman turned to for comfort when her children wandered from God. It shows how Graham's faith persevered and grew regardless of the outcome of her prodigals' stories. Part One introduces readers to five prodigals who "returned to the father." Part Two offers comfort and encouragement through Scripture, poems, hymns, prayers, and more. Readers will be touched by the honest feelings of pain, frustration, and uncertainty Graham expresses so eloquently. And they will share in the lessons she learned about God's sovereignty and ultimate peace. Now beautifully repackaged, Prodigals and Those Who Love Them brings peace and hope to all parents of "wayward" children.
