Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Raintree Hunter, aka Flame, and Corinne Genevieve Michaels, aka Princess, grew up in Sinners Motorcycle Club. Best friends at two, boyfriend/girlfriend at thirteen, lovers at fourteen, and engaged at eighteen-together forever. It was their destiny until mainstream norms infiltrated their lives. Flame: It isn't a revelation the Afghanistan War screwed with my mind. Joey's and my father's death sent me over the edge. It's no excuse for what I had done to the woman I love. Sinners love and protect our females. I broke the bikers' golden rule, so it's no wonder my dreams have been haunted by Corrie. I made it my mission to make her life a living, breathing hell. She left me. Two-and-a-half years ago, I got my shot at redemption. I made love to Corrie. What I said and did after will be a permanent black mark on my soul. Today I saw Corrie for the first time in two-and-a-half years. The circumstances for our reunion weren't ideal. What I learned shook me to my core. The brotherhood betrayed me. Corrie has secrets that the Sinners are keeping from me. Will Flame uncover Corrie's secrets? A second chance at love? Princess: There wasn't any notice? No time for me to prepare for the crushing blow Jamie landed on me six-and-a-half years ago. Two weeks before our wedding, he threw down a ridiculous ultimatum. I responded as any self-respecting woman would: I ended us. Then I did what I always had done when Jamie was in Afghanistan. I devoted myself to my career. I became the most sought-after attorney in Helena, Montana. I set my sites on Landen Logging Company. I was determined to make Leon Landen pay for the deaths of my people-the Native Americans. Landen Logging Company had its own ugly secrets. I uncovered every single one. It quickly became a deadly game of cat and mouse. A one-night stand with Jamie changed my life forever. Game over-Leon Landen won. I need to protect the people I love to my own detriment. Will Corrie tell her secrets to Flame? Will she give Flame a second chance?

Download or read book I m Just Happy to Be Here written by Janelle Hanchett and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A refreshingly raw, contrasting perspective on the foolproof idea of motherhood." -- POPSUGAR "By turns painful and funny... A searingly candid memoir." -- Kirkus "Far from your cookie-cutter story of addiction . . . [I'm Just Happy to Be Here] describes Hanchett's journey to recovery and sobriety in imperfect and unconventional ways." -- Bustle In this unflinching and wickedly funny memoir, Janelle Hanchett tells the story of finding her way home. And then, actually staying there. Drawing us into the wild, heartbreaking mind of the addict, Hanchett carries us from motherhood at 21 with a man she'd known three months to cubicles and whiskey-laden domesticity, from judging meth addicts in rehab to therapists who "seem to pull diagnoses out of large, expensive hats." With warmth, wit, and searing B.S. detectors turned mostly toward herself, Hanchett invites us to laugh when we probably shouldn't and to rejoice at the unconventional redemption she finds in desperation and in a misfit mentor who forces her to see the truth of herself. A story of ego and forced humility, of fierce honesty and jagged love, of the kind of failure that forces us to re-create our lives, Hanchett writes with rare candor, scorching the "sanctity of motherhood," and leaving beauty in the ashes.

Download or read book Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil written by John Berendt and published by Random House. This book was released on 1994-01-13 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A modern classic of true crime, set in a most beguiling Southern city—now in a 30th anniversary edition with a new afterword by the author “Elegant and wicked . . . might be the first true-crime book that makes the reader want to book a bed and breakfast for an extended weekend at the scene of the crime.”—The New York Times Book Review Shots rang out in Savannah’s grandest mansion in the misty, early morning hours of May 2, 1981. Was it murder or self-defense? For nearly a decade, the shooting and its aftermath reverberated throughout this hauntingly beautiful city of moss-hung oaks and shaded squares. In this sharply observed, suspenseful, and witty narrative, John Berendt skillfully interweaves a hugely entertaining first-person account of life in this isolated remnant of the Old South with the unpredictable twists and turns of a landmark murder case. It is a spellbinding story peopled by a gallery of remarkable characters: the well-bred society ladies of the Married Woman’s Card Club; the turbulent young gigolo; the hapless recluse who owns a bottle of poison so powerful it could kill every man, woman, and child in Savannah; the aging and profane Southern belle who is the “soul of pampered self-absorption”; the uproariously funny drag queen; the acerbic and arrogant antiques dealer; the sweet-talking, piano-playing con artist; young people dancing the minuet at the black debutante ball; and Minerva, the voodoo priestess who works her magic in the graveyard at midnight. These and other Savannahians act as a Greek chorus, with Berendt revealing the alliances, hostilities, and intrigues that thrive in a town where everyone knows everyone else. Brilliantly conceived and masterfully written, Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil is a sublime and seductive reading experience.

Frank Baum’s intrepid wife, Maud, in this richly imagined novel from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Eighty-Dollar Champion and The Perfect Horse. “A breathtaking read that will transport you over the rainbow and into the heart of one of America’s most enduring fairy tales.”—Lisa Wingate, author of Before We Were Yours Hollywood, 1938: As soon as she learns that M-G-M is adapting her late husband’s masterpiece for the screen, Maud Gage Baum, now in her seventies, sets about trying to finagle her way onto the set.

Now, with the young girl under pressure from the studio as well as from her ambitious stage mother, Maud resolves to protect Judy—the way she tried so hard to protect the real Dorothy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I was a selfish Sinner. I was all over partying hard and living for the brotherhood. A woman and kid weren’t in the cards for me. I vowed never to swallow the poison pill—love. Subconsciously, I devoured it as soon as I laid my eyes upon a gorgeous violet-eyed, dark-haired beauty—Jewel. Joker I knew Jewel was different from the other sweet butts. She was too intelligent, too polished, and too beautiful. But, I didn’t ask questions, and I didn’t claim her as mine. Bumping uglies was good enough for me. It was all sh*ts and giggles until everything went south—a positive pregnancy test. I lost my f*ing mind. I became a biker Jewel feared. My actions, or rather inactions, rained hell down on us both. I broke the Sinners’ code: above all, Sinners love and protect our women and children. I paid the ultimate price—a dead son. Jewel left Pony, and I slid further into the flames of guilt and grief. Now, twenty-one months later, Jewel has returned to Pony, toting a beautiful baby, our second child. It’s time to step up, get sober, and be the man Jewel needs me to be—a Sinner who loves and protects his family. There isn’t an option; I need to claim them and make them mine. My next move and how I’m going to make amends for all my wrongs is a mystery. I need a plan! Jewel: Parents will tell their children the boogieman doesn’t exist. He’s a figment of their imagination. I know the boogieman is real. I met him twice. He’s a living, breathing, human monster who sent me running into the arms of the Sinners. One look, and I fell hard for Joker. He’s funny and the most delicious eye candy—a muscled, tatted, tall, blue-eyed blond biker. Clue in, ladies, a girl can love someone and not want a relationship with them. Multiple broken bones and numerous scars will teach a girl that darn quick. So, when I turned up pregnant, I was more surprised than Joker. He didn’t claim us, and that’s cool with me. Though I love Joker, I don’t need him. I have more money than a hundred people can spend in a lifetime. Joker learned my real identity and history after my attacker killed our son. The following events are like looking through an unfocused lens. My best friend, Cookie, told me Joker saved me when I had no desire to be saved. It’s been two years since Finlan’s death. Richard Briggs is locked up for life. I’ve returned to Pony to make a life for Jackie and me. Now, seeing Joker is a dagger to my heart. He appears unwell. I can’t save him; he wants nothing to do with Jackie or me. The best I can do is stay out of his way.
