Book excerpt: As far as bad boy Spike Moriarty was concerned, Madeline Maguire defined female perfection. When they'd met, she'd walked up as if she wasn't the most gorgeous thing on the planet and asked to see his tattoos. He—a tough guy who'd make grown men run—had just about passed out. But their connection was definitely one-way…it had to be. Because he could never be the man in a million she was looking for, not with the things he'd done and seen. So for as long as she'd let him, he'd give her whatever she wanted. He'd worry about her walking away when it happened.

Book excerpt: The “unexpectedly moving” story of dumb luck and the American Dream set in South Philly from the # 1 New York Times–bestselling author (Entertainment Weekly). What would you do if you found a million dollars? When Joey Coyle did, he was a twenty-eight-year-old drug-dependent, unemployed longshoreman living with his ailing mother in a tight-knit Philadelphia neighborhood. While cruising the streets just blocks from his home, fate took a turn worthy of a Hollywood caper when he found $1.2 million in unmarked bills—casino money that had fallen off an armored truck. It was virtually untraceable. Coyle? Not so much. Over the next seven days, fueled by euphoria, methamphetamine, and paranoia, Coyle shared his windfall with everyone from his eight-year-old niece to total strangers to a local mob boss who offered to “clean” it. All the while, Det. Pat Laurenzi and members of the FBI were working around the clock to find it. No one was prepared for how Coyle’s dream-come-true would come tumbling down, or what would happen when it did. From “a master of narrative journalism” comes the incredible true-life thriller of an ordinary man with an extraordinary dilemma, and the complicity, concern, and betrayal of friends, family, and neighbors that would prove his undoing (The New York Times Book Review). “A miniature serio-comedy about life in the city.” —The Washington Post “Masterfully reported and artfully paced.” —Entertainment Weekly “A taut, fast-paced tale.” —The Baltimore Sun

Dr. Brown, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for more than twenty-five years, candidly shares his gripping and often turbulent life story. In 1995, he was violently arrested and incarcerated on two felony counts of assault with a deadly weapon. This began a maelstrom of pain and horror. Being in jail is a frightening and bewildering experience, yet, supported by his faith, he established beneficial relationships with inmates that have lasted to this day. From that point on, it is a story delineating the attempts of his wife and her lover to destroy him through the court system. Through professional psychotherapy and a brutally honest self-examination, Dr. Brown is now able to assess his own complicity in his troubles and to heal from the wounds of his emotionally impoverished childhood. Powerful insights are revealed that only the dark night of the soul could have delivered. This book will prove helpful to others in their own healing and recovery processes from past traumas and emotional wounds.
