“Charming. . . . A moving testament to the diversity and depths of love.” —Publishers Weekly You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll be swept away—in less time than it takes to read this paragraph. Here are 175 true stories—honest, funny, tender and wise—each as moving as a lyric poem, all told in no more than one hundred words. An electrician lights up a woman’s life, a sister longs for her homeless brother, strangers dream of what might have been. Love lost, found and reclaimed. Love that’s romantic, familial, platonic and unexpected. Most of all, these stories celebrate love as it exists in real life: a silly remark that leads to a lifetime together, a father who struggles to remember his son, ordinary moments that burn bright.
"Mike Madrid is doing God's work. . . . mak[ing] accessible a lost, heady land of female adventure." —ComicsAlliance "Sharp and lively . . . [Madrid] clearly loves this stuff.

And now here is where it all began, as informative and entertaining as ever, in a revised and updated edition, including new illustrations and a new introduction, as well as an afterword bringing us up-to-date on what's happening with women in comics now. Mike Madrid is the author of Divas, Dames & Daredevils: Lost Heroines of Golden Age Comics; Vixens, Vamps & Vipers: Lost Villainesses of Golden Age Comics; and the original The Supergirls: Fashion, Feminism, Fantasy, and the History of Comic Book Heroines, an NPR "Best Book To Share With Your Friends" and American Library Association Amelia Bloomer Project Notable Book. A San Francisco native and lifelong fan of comic books and popular culture, Madrid also appears in the documentary Wonder Women! The Untold Story of American Superheroines and is the illustrator of two of The History of Arcadia books: Lily the Silent and The Lizard Princess.
One of Library Journal's Best Romances of 2018 The one you love… Robert Selby is determined to see his sister make an advantageous match. But he has two problems: the Selbys have no connections or money and Robert is really a housemaid named Charity Church. She’s enjoyed every minute of her masquerade over the past six years, but she knows her pretense is nearing an end. Charity needs to see her beloved friend married well and then Robert Selby will disappear…forever. May not be who you think… Alistair, Marquess of Pembroke, has spent years repairing the estate ruined by his wastrel father, and nothing is more important than protecting his fortune and name. He shouldn’t be so beguiled by the charming young man who shows up on his doorstep asking for favors. And he certainly shouldn’t be thinking of all the disreputable things he’d like to do to the impertinent scamp. But is who you need… When Charity’s true nature is revealed, Alistair knows he can’t marry a scandalous woman in breeches, and Charity isn’t about to lace herself into a corset and play a respectable miss. Can these stubborn souls learn to sacrifice what they’ve always wanted for a love that is more than they could have imagined?

My body tingled when I lay awake in the dark of night, alone in my bed, wanting Bill at my side. I’ve been telling him what a committed Christian I am, yet I harbor desires that seem to be far from my faith. The lust of the flesh comes to mind. I’m in total agony. How could I say all the right words about being a devout Christian and then secretly nurture the craving to give him my all? I think that using the Christian title is a terrible misnomer when I’m not thinking like one. Or am I? Do other women in my situation want to be held, kissed, and romanced like this? Do they have the battle I’m having over their spiritual side and their human yearnings? I agonize when I consider the possible outcome. Love Dream Reader Reviews “Warm tears clouded my vision as I closed the cover on Love Dream. I’m drained from the intimate prose taken from Lilly’s diary. I’ll read this book again and again. Lilly allows me (all of us) the privilege of living the dream of a lifetime with her.” — Sara Parnell “I’ve read a lot of memoirs and romantic novels and find this combination so fresh and intriguing. It was so emotionally deep that I had to stop, rest and dry my eyes. Love Dream goes beyond words to express how moved I was.” — Shirley A. Jeup “As a college instructor I had to make time to read Love Dream. When I did, I couldn’t put it down. I’m intrigued with the way it combines the love story and the spiritual lessons. It’s a great read for both men and women, old and young.” — Michael Anderson “I just finished Love Dream, and I think it’s great! It deals with the issues of relationship, sex, age (both physical and spiritual), and reveals a woman who ultimately made all the right choices. It’s boldly honest....” —Sally Stuart

When she ended, the chorus of women arose to their feet, and slowly filed out of one of the side doors, leaving the court empty, and Helena still standing by the brazier, from whence the burning incense still rolled skyward. Maurice, quite astonished at this strange scene of magical incantation, stole quietly forward, and, looking over her shoulder, saw that she was gazing at the amber heart, which she had converted into an amulet by her moon spells...FROM THE BOOKS.
This collection of essays by philosopher J. David Velleman on personal identity, autonomy, and moral emotions is united by an overarching thesis that there is no single entity denoted by 'the self', as well as themes from Kantian ethics and Velleman's work in the philosophy of action.
