Book excerpt: A rugged-mountain man, a city girl, and a fling that will give them the adventure of a lifetime. I don’t do small town, country living. The hustle and bustle of New York pumps through my veins. Still, when a dear friend invited me to stand up in her wedding, I decided to embrace all Colorado had to offer. I was expecting mountainous terrain and outdoor adventures. Instead, I found myself face to face with the ruggedly handsome Henry Rigby—a lumberjack fantasy come to life. It was supposed to be a short trip. Yet the time we spent together made New York seem farther and farther away... "I was already a goner for this book in the first few pages, I felt I had just stepped into the Christmas Hallmark Channel, although this couple doesn't hold back on the chemistry front. The backdrop for this story, with the snow and the mountains had me believe I was seeing the cold air releasing from my lips as I snuggled down under my blanket with a hot cup of chocolate and let Henry and Kelsey's story seep into my soul." World of Books 65 "Oh. My. The feels y'all! You will experience every single one of them. Every. Single. One. The happiness, the fear, the excitement, the longing and their love for each other. Kelsey & Henry's story is beyond what I expected, the twist and turns had me sucked in from the very first words. This book was a magnificent, captivating, un-put-downable must read! I highly recommend!" Tara, Jessica Peterson's City Girls "Big City meets Small Town in Adventurous Love - and I am so here for it! What's not to love? Picturesque mountains, a rugged, bearded, sexy man and the woman who owns his heart - *sigh*. Adventurous Love is the perfect read in one sitting, small town, opposites attract, forbidden romance." - Judy Ann Loves Books "I am really enjoying this series! The characters are well developed and the stories are layered and extremely entertaining." Reading in the Red Room "A small town romance with so much depth and love in it. I highly recommend reading!" Paula Loves Her Books "A feel-good HEA that you won't want to put down!" Daisy Knox, Tales of Love, Life and Murder "Devastatingly handsome mountain man with strong family ties, a rustic lodge and ranch, and delicious sweetness! You stole my heart and never gave it back! These two are so utterly perfect for each other! You will fall so deeply in this story but it's totally worth the heartache and pain to get to the happy ever after! 5/5 snowflakes ❄ ❄❄❄❄ highly recommend!" - Savannah, Goodreads reviewer "OPPOSITES ATTRACT AT IT'S BEST! Both are so different BUT oh so PERFECT for each other! I REALLY couldn't stop swooning right from the beginning till the end!" Alice, Goodreads reviewer

Download or read book The Life and Adventures of Nat Love written by Nat Love and published by Black Classic Press. This book was released on 1988 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thousands of black cowpunchers drove cattle up the Chisholm Trail after the Civil War, but only Nat Love wrote about his experiences. Born to slaves in Davidson County, Tennessee, the newly freed Love struck out for Kansas after the war. He was fifteen and already endowed with a reckless and romantic readiness. In wide-open Dodge City he joined up with an outfit from the Texas Panhandle to begin a career riding the range and fighting Indians, outlaws, and the elements. Years later he would say, "I had an unusually adventurous life". That was rare understatement. More characteristic was Love's claim: "I carry the marks of fourteen bullet wounds on different parts of my body, most any one of which would be sufficient to kill an ordinary man, but I am not even crippled". In 1876 a virtuoso rodeo performance in Deadwood, Dakota Territory, won him the moniker of Deadwood Dick. He became known as DD all over the West, entering into dime novels as a mysteriously dark and heroic presence. This vivid autobiography includes encounters with Bat Masterson and Billy the Kid, a soon-after view of the Custer battlefield, and a successful courtship. Love left the range in 1890, the year of the official closing of the frontier. Then, as a Pullman train conductor he traveled his old trails, and those good times bring his story to a satisfying end.

Download or read book Raising Real Men written by Hal Young and published by Great Waters Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Families with boys often find the world reacts to them in mock horror. Even though parents love their sons, privately they admit that boys can be a handful to raise--they are boisterous, competitive, reckless, distractable. The challenge of wills between parent and son starts early, and the quest to civilize young bulls may seem hopeless some days. Yet believers know that God has given them children as a gift of heaven, specially chosen for their particular families and marked as a blessing. If that's so, why does it seem so hard? How can we prepare these boys to serve God when it's all we can do to make it through another day? Isn't there a better way? Raising Real Men: Surviving, Teaching and Appreciating Boys shows the answer is emphatically yes. Written by the parents of six boys, Raising Real Men provides hope and encouragement to families with sons. Starting from the premise that God made boys to become men, Hal and Melanie Young offer Biblical principles and tested, practical ideas for training the manly virtues that can drive parents and teachers up the wall. This is a practical guide to equipping the hearts and minds of boys without breaking or losing your own. "...earthy, realistic, humorous, and scriptural ..." -- Douglas Wilson, author, Future Men "This is just what the doctor ordered for parents who want to raise capable Christian men of character." -- John Rosemond, author, Parenting By The Book

Download or read book What Shamu Taught Me About Life Love and Marriage written by Amy Sutherland and published by Random House. This book was released on 2008-02-12 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While observing exotic animal trainers for her acclaimed book Kicked, Bitten, and Scratched, journalist Amy Sutherland had an epiphany: What if she used these training techniques with the human animals in her own life–namely her dear husband, Scott? In this lively and perceptive book, Sutherland tells how she took the trainers’ lessons home. The next time her forgetful husband stomped through the house in search of his mislaid car keys, she asked herself, “What would a dolphin trainer do?” The answer was: nothing. Trainers reward the behavior they want and, just as important, ignore the behavior they don’t. Rather than appease her mate’s rising temper by joining in the search, or fuel his temper by nagging him to keep better track of his things in the first place, Sutherland kept her mouth shut and her eyes on the dishes she was washing. In short order, Scott found his keys and regained his cool. “I felt like I should throw him a mackerel,” she writes. In time, as she put more training principles into action, she noticed that she became more optimistic and less judgmental, and their twelve-year marriage was better than ever. What started as a goofy experiment had such good results that Sutherland began using the training techniques with all the people in her life, including her mother, her friends, her students, even the clerk at the post office. In the end, the biggest lesson she learned is that the only animal you can truly change is yourself. Full of fun facts, fascinating insights, hilarious anecdotes, and practical tips, What Shamu Taught Me About Life, Love, and Marriage describes Sutherland’s Alice-in-Wonderland experience of stumbling into a world where cheetahs walk nicely on leashes and elephants paint with watercolors, and of leaving a new, improved Homo sapiens.

Book excerpt: Tyler Fletcher was the star of every one of my teenage fantasies. And I was the forbidden fruit. The younger sister to four older brothers, I was off-limits to every guy in town—especially my brothers’ best friend. After finding ourselves alone in the same room when I was eighteen, Tyler and I had one brief, passionate encounter. But he disappeared without a word in the middle of the night. Desperate to get out of my brothers’ shadows, and away from Tyler, I fled to Paris. But after losing my job at a luxury hotel there, I found myself in the one place I swore I would never live—back home in Telluride. At a fundraising event at my family’s ski resort, Tyler approached me with an offer to partner together to raise money for charity. Desperate to find my footing and prove to my father that I deserved a position in his company, I agreed to Tyler’s proposition. Our task was simple: Construct dugouts for local softball teams. Instead, our shared moments were filled with stolen kisses in the outfield, surrendering to the undeniable spark between us. My recklessness won’t impress my father, and if he doesn’t give me the job, there will be nothing for me here. For Tyler, leaving his family and business isn’t an option. We’re treading a dangerous line, but what happens if it blows up in my face?
