Kerry has been in Gillette for more than five years. She came for school but stayed. Life on her family's farm in southern Wyoming held no appeal to her. She was getting by waiting tables until she found something more exciting. Who would have guessed that more exciting would be a tattooed biker sitting at her next table? Lurch had a lot on his plate. Learning a new job, dealing with managing men who'd never seen him as a leader, then he met Kerry and something about her called to him. Still, he was here for a reason and it wasn't to chase a local girl. The Souls were counting on him. But could he have both?

When his response was to leave her bloody and broke on the floor, she knew she had to do something drastic. The only person she knows willing to stand up to her daddy is Bubba. But she hasn’t heard from him since he left for the military. But has it been too long? What if he’s moved on and forgotten the first girl who loved him? With her safety and possibly her life, on the line, Sissy makes the call she’s wanted to make for years. But does time really heal all wounds?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Krissi Montoya lived under her father's thumb her entire life. Now she's escaping to build a life of her own. New city, new job, new school, but without Daddy's money. Krissi never counted on the one-night stand she couldn't get out of her head. There was something about the drop-dead sexy bartender she couldn't forget. When Krissi finds herself bound and gagged on the floor of a warehouse, she has no way to know if it's because of Ruger's club or her father's business. Krissi doesn't know, or care, but she's not some weak hot-house flower waiting around to be rescued. Can Krissi turn her back on the motorcycle club lifestyle that sent her running once, or has she already lost her heart? A man with a mission. A woman with a calling. Can they figure things out or are they destined to fail? Crash has done it again. Sometimes he feels like he's lucky to have survived. There's a reason his brothers call him Crash. Now he's stuck recovering from his latest mishap on wheels, but is he ready for Amber? Amber has seen it all before. Tough guys and those who never let you see that they're hurting. But she wasn't prepared for one who let people see that soft core. Was there more to the man than just his rough motorcycle club exterior? Can Crash and Amber make it past the rule of never become involved with your patient? Can they make it work or are they destined to wanting each other from afar? A prospect trying to earn his patch. An ex-hooker rescued by the club. Can she accept the only thing he has to give? Dumbass had made some mistakes, but planning the club Independence Day party wasn't going to be one of them. But he'd need some help. When Jailbait stepped up, and took command over the other girls, he noticed her for the first time. But as a prospect, he had no place wanting her. Jailbait liked being around the club, but she wanted more than to be passed around the brothers. Looking far younger than her age wasn't helping. But when the club 4th of July party puts her working with Dumbass, something develops. But is he in a position where it could work? Will he be put off by her past? Club rules and customs might just keep them apart, how would they manage? Can love survive secrets and lies? Chris Kinard lives a double life. In one he's an emergency room nurse, who saves lives and helps the sick. In the other, he’s the club medic and a member of the Demented Souls MC. While the secrecy of these dual existences heavily weighs on him, Kinard knows he could never turn his back on the brotherhood. Unable to take the soul-crushing stress of the ICU any longer, Deanna prays transferring to the emergency room will be an improvement. While she wasn't counting on another nurse capturing her heart, one look at Kinard made her pulse race. As much as she longs to be with him, Deanna knows there are parts of his life he’s keeping hidden from her. How long can Kinard keep up the charade before his world comes crashing down? Will his web of secrets destroy any chance with Deanna?

Sadist has lived the last ten years with one goal in mind. To make this world safer for people like his family. He lived to protect his fellow Demented Souls, his club brothers. That didn't leave room for the softer parts of life like a wife or family. He didn't know if he could share the secret that kept his brothers alive. But who would be willing to let him keep those secrets from them? Beth was just trying to get through a rough spot. Between work and helping her parents, she was getting by but that was all. Then a tall, tattooed man walked into her salon for a haircut. The last thing she expected was for the man who made her stomach flip to be interested in her. Until he came back and asked her out.

She didn't have time for it with her job and everything she wanted to do. Besides, she'd never found a man who could step up and be her equal without trying to make her smaller. Then the hot biker who lived next door knocked on her door. But was he more than just another pretty face? Can they work out their differences or are Mac and Elyse destined for another heartbreak? Tuck: Tuck left home more than twenty years ago to be his own man. Now he's called back with the news that both his parents are dead and he needs to be there. He doesn't want to go.

Download or read book The Root of All Evil written by Kenneth Moore Startup and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 1997 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Root of All Evil Kenneth Moore Startup looks to the sermons and writings of Protestant clergy to better understand the driving forces behind the antebellum southern economy. During this period of unprecedented American expansion, he finds, clerics of all denominations on both sides of the Mason-Dixon line displayed a remarkable unanimity in their condemnation of mammonism--the open pursuit of wealth, conspicuous consumption, lack of charity, and contempt of honest labor. This trend, the clergy argued, was diverting both North and South from their best interests and would ultimately destroy the nation. The Root of All Evil represents a challenge to any notion of an economically disinterested southern mind and culture by revealing an Old South in line ideologically with the mainstream of nineteenth-century capitalism, and also provides useful insights into southern religious life.

Download or read book Tragedy Philosophy and Political Education in Plato s Laws written by Ryan Krieger Balot and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Previous scholars and writers have either celebrated the idealism in Plato's Laws or denounced its totalitarianism. Ryan K. Balot, by contrast, refuses to interpret the dialogue as a political blueprint, whether admirable or misguided. Instead, he shows that it constitutes Plato's greatest philosophical investigation of political life. In this transformative re-appraisal, Balot reveals that Plato's goal was to cultivate a tragic attitude toward our political passions, commitments, and aspirations.
