Book excerpt: "All she wanted was a fresh start. For Kate Ariel, taking a job as a dancer at Silhouettes, Philadelphia's hottest gentlemen's club, was only supposed to be a temporary fix to pay the bills and escape her painful past. As the days, suited up for job interviews, and the nights, spent working the pole, nearly push her to the breaking point, Kate receives an opportunity to work as personal assistant to Gretchen Lambert, a hard-drinking and eccentric former socialite who runs a high-end lingerie shop from her home. It doesn't take long, however, for Kate to learn the shocking truth about Gretchen's business: that her lingerie shop is merely a front for the area's most elite escort service; one that caters to the extravagant erotic fantasies of its wealthy and powerful clients. Introduced to a world of wild sexual desires beyond anything she had ever imagined, Kate quickly becomes torn between the allure of the money she so desperately needs and the risks associated with Gretchen's affairs. Only making things more complicated are her attraction to Dylan Cole, the handsome young Silhouettes patron who has recently caught her eye, and her friendship with Vixen, the brash, wild dancer who quickly becomes both mentor and thorn in Kate's side. When an unexpected tragedy pushes Kate even deeper into Gretchen's world, she must quickly decide whether to walk away from her new life or to embrace it. But just how far will Kate be willing to go before Gretchen's lifestyle consumes her past the point of no return?"--Back cover.

Book excerpt: Stumbling Over A Quarter To Pick Up A Penny: Understanding Your Life's Spiritual Periods is a book that teaches you how to remain in God's Power while dealing with life's everyday challenges. "Stumbling Over A Quarter To Pick Up A Penny" is a metaphor for how you deal inappropriately with your life's challenges---whether they are related to relationships, illicit behavior, wealth, health or spiritual peace of mind. The Six Spiritual Periods: Probation, Preparation, Conquest, Power, Decline, and Servitude are the different stages of life that you find yourself in while dealing with those challenges. Oftentimes you are not in God's Power, where you want to be, but in one of the other five. To get to God's Power or to remain in it, you need to understand the principles of the Six Spiritual Periods that are contained in this book. The stories in this book are built around a recent awareness that God gave me of how to unlock the understanding of life's Six Spiritual Periods. They are an accumulation of my personal "stumbling" experiences blended together with Biblical stories and Scripture references that I use to reveal to you how important it is to have a correct understanding of which of the Six Spiritual Periods that you are currently living your life in. Written for individuals of all ages, the book takes less than four hours to read, but its unique insights can last a lifetime. So read the stories, complete the Determining Your Life's Spiritual Period Worksheet and then enjoy the personal happiness fostered by your new understanding of how God's Power works.

Book excerpt: T.C. Boyle was first feted as a master of the short story for his critically acclaimed Greasy Lake. With these stories applauded by People magazine as "wickedly comical," he displays once again a virtuosity and versatility rare in literary America today. Without a Hero zooms in on American phenomena such as a center for the treatment of acquisitive disorders; a couple in search of the last toads on earth; and a real estate wonder boy on a dude safari near convenient Bakerfield, California. Sharp, guileful, and malevolently funny, Boyle's stories are "more than funny, better than wicked," says The Philadelphia Inquirer. "They make you cringe with their clarity."

Download or read book Time After Time written by Lisa Grunwald and published by Random House Trade Paperbacks. This book was released on 2020-06-09 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magical love story, inspired by the legend of a woman who vanished from Grand Central Terminal, sweeps readers from the 1920s to World War II and beyond. “Readers who enjoyed Audrey Niffenegger’s The Time Traveler’s Wife will be enchanted.”—Publishers Weekly “I utterly loved this clever, charming, hopeful tale of true love against all odds.”—Ariel Lawhon, New York Times bestselling author of I Was Anastasia On a clear December morning in 1937, at the famous gold clock in Grand Central Terminal, Joe Reynolds, a hardworking railroad man from Queens, meets a vibrant young woman who seems mysteriously out of place. Nora Lansing is a Manhattan socialite and an aspiring artist whose flapper clothing, pearl earrings, and talk of the Roaring Twenties don’t seem to match the bleak mood of Depression-era New York. Captivated by Nora from her first electric touch, Joe despairs when he tries to walk her home and she disappears. Finding her again—and again—will become the focus of his love and his life. As thousands of visitors pass under the famous celestial blue ceiling each day, Joe and Nora create a life of infinite love in a finite space, taking full advantage of the “Terminal City” within a city. But when the construction of another landmark threatens their future, Nora and Joe are forced to test the limits of their freedom—and their love. Praise for Time After Time “I’ll never again set foot in Grand Central Terminal without looking over my shoulder for Nora and Joe, or marveling at the station itself—a backdrop as intriguing as the love story that unfolds beneath its star-studded ceiling.”—Georgia Hunter, New York Times bestselling author of We Were the Lucky Ones “In lively prose set against the fascinating history of Grand Central . . . Grunwald asks a compelling question: How long would we stay in one place [for love]?”—Time “The spectacular Lisa Grunwald has written a classic story of fate, true love, art, and chance with truth and beauty. You will want to share it with every reader you know.”—Adriana Trigiani, New York Times bestselling author of Tony’s Wife
