This book was released on 2014-02-16 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Suzi's marriage was on the rocks. She had put on too much weight since the birth of her last child and lost interest in sex. Not surprisingly then, her husband had developed his sex life elsewhere. His long business trips to London had allowed him to find a mistress who shared his sexual tastes and that relationship flourished. When Damion finally told her he thought it was time to move on, Suzi was desperate to keep him and was prepared to do anything to keep the marriage together. That was to be total submission to her husband and a willingness to completely embrace the D/s lifestyle he enjoyed with his mistress. That was only the start and this novella follows Suzi's journey into submission, through the training at her husband's hands to the extreme sexual encounters he arranges with other men, women and groups of people who have only one thing in common; a desire to enjoy his sexy, submissive wife. This story has been told before in a series of short ebooks and two collections - Submissive Women - but this is the first time Suzi's journey from naive and respectable housewife to horny submissive slut has been available in one long story.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “This book walks each of us through the reality checks we need in order to have the marriage we want!” —Shaunti Feldhahn, social researcher and best-selling author of For Women Only In today’s workplace, women are often rewarded for having type A personalities: driven, demanding, ambitious, and strong. Yet when it comes to their marriages, those same traits can backfire. After all, no one goes into marriage hoping for a promotion. What is a wife to do? April Cassidy knows this struggle firsthand. She thought she was a great Christian wife and begged God to make her passive husband into a more loving, involved, godly leader. Instead, God opened her eyes to changes that she needed to make, such as laying down her desire for control and offering genuine, unconditional respect—not just love—to her husband. Cassidy’s conclusions may be as startling to readers as they were to her, but The Peaceful Wife shares how she and many others have learned to reorient their lives to biblical commands—resulting in healthier, happier marriages. In the end, you’ll find The Peaceful Wife a powerful path to God’s design for women to live in full submission to Christ as Lord.

Natalie King's life is full. Some might say too full. With her teaching job, a farm to run, three grown daughters who have not quite got a handle on things, a reserved husband and a demanding mother-in-law, most days she is too busy to think about whether she is happy. But her life has meaning, doesn't it? After all, she is the one person everyone depends upon. But when an odd gift from her mother-in-law - an old book in the form of stern and outdated advice for young wives - surfaces again, it brings with it memories she thought she had buried deep.

On a day when it seems everyone is taking her for granted, and as the ghost of a past betrayal rises, it becomes clear that even this good mother and model wife can be pushed too far ...

Download or read book Living With Thunder written by Joe Brazeal and published by . This book was released on 2020-04 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the first fifteen years of our marriage, we were the typical couple. All was well. Our three children were stable and for all intents and purposes, we were the average American family. Like weather slowly changing from calm to tornadic, our lives became a living hell on earth. But slowly, slowly, slowly, the love of my life, my wife Kimberly, began to change. We tried to keep our problems within our immediate family but the reality of the insanity devastated us. We couldn't hide from it anymore. First came the headaches, then the medications to ease the pain, and finally a cocktail of medications and alcohol to slow the progression of what I later learned was her brain fragmenting and disintegrating. No one knew; not even me. We treated the symptoms until her behavior became insurmountable and uncontrollable.The brain is a mystery and remains unharnessed. The power is beyond the scope of human imagination. This oddity called dementia or Alzheimer's disease has been with mankind since the beginning. What is known is that there is a breakdown in the brain. Its highways of communication become gridlocked. Essentially, it starves itself. There is no effective treatment and this disease is irreversible.Forty-seven million people worldwide and nearly six million in the United States have been diagnosed. Of those diagnosed in the United States, 200,000 fall into the category of early-onset. Sadly, it is the 6th leading cause of death. One in ten over the age of sixty-five will become lost in their own mind. These numbers are expected to triple by 2050 with cost skyrocketing. We are facing an epidemic as the baby boomer generation age. What used to be attributed as old age, is now considered Alzheimer's in some shape or fashion. Let's not rule out, sometimes folks just forget. The forgetfulness could be attributed to vitamin deficiency or caused by a thyroid imbalance. There are many factors including genetics, diet, exercise, and environment. Like anything else, if you don't use it, you lose it. This is not just an old person's disease. This disease can strike as early as age twenty-seven.The financial, physical, and emotional toll will be astronomical. Although there are no known cures or effective treatments advances are made every day. This book is a journey of hope. You'll discover coping mechanisms not found anywhere else. Know this, you are not alone. Much like an upcoming hurricane of epic proportions, knowledge is power. Having these tools provide preparation for living with thunder and the aftermath. Ignorance is not bliss. There is a God. You are not forgotten. Never give up.
