Book excerpt: When Two Forbidden Souls Unite, Balance is Restored Bryan Galway, leader of the powerful Galway Clan, is an honorable magic-user who has spent his life protecting and caring for his younger brother and his clan. His heightened sense of responsibility drives him to put everyone else’s needs before his own, a propensity that is his greatest strength…and his greatest weakness. In a moment of panic, Bryan breaks what shouldn’t be broken and alters his predestined path. He must earn trust and learn forgiveness if he’s going to fulfill his destiny and stop the evil that’s intent on destroying everyone he loves. Fate doesn’t like anyone messing up her plans. Max Fraser has spent the last five hundred years protecting and supporting his Prince. His sense of responsibility, logical thinking, and no-nonsense attitude have served him well as Second in command of the North American covens. His life is complete…except, in the deepest recesses of his soul, he longs to find and join with his fated Bloodmate. When that momentous day finally arrives, the one destined to be his breaks the most sacred of vampire bonds…and his trust. The fate of the world now hangs on his willingness to forgive. But how does one forgive when trust has been lost? Fate believes in second chances, but you have to work for it. That which is broken must be mended, the unforgivable must be forgiven, and lost faith must be restored, before the malevolent shadow that threatens their world consumes them all. This book is not a standalone and is best read as part of a series. Tags: MM Paranormal Romance, Vampire & Magic-user, Heat Level One, Fated Mates, Demon, Final Battle, HEA

Download or read book The Bonds of Inequality written by Destin Jenkins and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2021-04-29 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indebtedness, like inequality, has become a ubiquitous condition in the United States. Yet few have probed American cities’ dependence on municipal debt or how the terms of municipal finance structure racial privileges, entrench spatial neglect, elide democratic input, and distribute wealth and power. In this passionate and deeply researched book, Destin Jenkins shows in vivid detail how, beyond the borrowing decisions of American cities and beneath their quotidian infrastructure, there lurks a world of politics and finance that is rarely seen, let alone understood. Focusing on San Francisco, The Bonds of Inequality offers a singular view of the postwar city, one where the dynamics that drove its creation encompassed not only local politicians but also banks, credit rating firms, insurance companies, and the national municipal bond market. Moving between the local and the national, The Bonds of Inequality uncovers how racial inequalities in San Francisco were intrinsically tied to municipal finance arrangements and how these arrangements were central in determining the distribution of resources in the city. By homing in on financing and its imperatives, Jenkins boldly rewrites the history of modern American cities, revealing the hidden strings that bind debt and power, race and inequity, democracy and capitalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Cities require infrastructure as they grow and persist; infrastructure requires funding, typically from the bond market. But the bond market is not a neutral player. In this groundbreaking book, Destin Jenkins suggests that questions of urban infrastructure are inherently also questions of justice because infrastructure requires financial mechanisms to come into being. Moreover, these mechanisms abstract cities into investments controlled from afar, which exacerbates local inequalities of race, wealth, and power. Ultimately, Jenkins opens up far larger questions, such as why it is that American social welfare is predicated on the demands of finance capitalism in the first place"--

Download or read book Bonds of Secrecy written by Benjamin A. Saltzman and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What did it mean to keep a secret in early medieval England? It was a period during which the experience of secrecy was intensely bound to the belief that God knew all human secrets, yet the secrets of God remained unknowable to human beings. In Bonds of Secrecy, Benjamin A. Saltzman argues that this double-edged conception of secrecy and divinity profoundly affected the way believers acted and thought as subjects under the law, as the devout within monasteries, and as readers before books. One crucial way it did so was by forming an ethical relationship between the self and the world that was fundamentally different from its modern reflex. Whereas today the bearers of secrets might be judged for the consequences of their reticence or disclosure, Saltzman observes, in the early Middle Ages a person attempting to conceal a secret was judged for believing he or she could conceal it from God. In other words, to attempt to hide from God was to become ensnared in a serious sin, but to hide from the world while deliberately and humbly submitting to God's constant observation was often a hallmark of spiritual virtue. Looking to law codes and religious architecture, hagiographies and riddles, Bonds of Secrecy shows how legal and monastic institutions harnessed the pervasive and complex belief in God's omniscience to produce an intense culture of scrutiny and a radical ethics of secrecy founded on the individual's belief that nothing could be hidden from God. According to Saltzman, this ethics of secrecy not only informed early medieval notions of mental activity and ideas about the mind but also profoundly shaped the practices of literary interpretation in ways that can inform our own contemporary approaches to reading texts from the past.
