Book excerpt: In the thrilling sequel to #1 New York Times bestselling author P. C. Cast’s Into the Mist, a group of women fight for a just future in the wake of global destruction. Practical Magic meets Station Eleven in this pulse-pounding postapocalyptic thriller about the power of women. Mercury Rhodes and her world were utterly changed when the bombs fell, releasing the green mist. While it proved deadly to all the men who breathed it in, it gave new life to women who did the same. The green mist provided each member of her newfound family an ability: Stella’s heightened intuition, Imani’s earthly connection, Karen’s bond with Spirit, and Gemma’s healing ability. Although Mercury now has incredible physical strength—she doesn’t know if she will be strong enough for what comes next. Especially after the death of Ford, their companion through the aftermath of the mist. The group finds respite in creating a small community in the John Day Fossil Preserve, near the Painted Hills in Oregon. Together, they hope to find a place where they can start over and rebuild a better world. But Mercury knows it won’t be that simple, not when she knows someone, or something, is hunting them. Something that wants to rule the ruins of the world and something who sees Mercury as a threat that must be eliminated. Mercury will have to muster all her strength if she is to fight for a new dawn. The fate of her friends—and the world—depend on it.

Download or read book When Your Body Gets Weak written by Marilyn Louise Steede and published by Strategic Book Publishing & Rights Agency. This book was released on 2019-07-02 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Not your typical romantic escapade, When Your Body Gets Weak depicts a May/November romance. The story blends intrigue, suspense, jealousy, desolation, physical fitness, camaraderie, and triumph, re-enforcing the principle that chivalry is still alive and well. Imani’s soulmate, Sonjae, a young man fifteen years younger than herself, was scheduled to attend a meeting in one of the Twin Towers on September 11, 2001. Imani refuses to acknowledge that Sonjae has perished, despite media reports and data about the survival possibilities of those present in the buildings. The book demonstrates that young men can sustain the timeless attribute of chivalry, while still maintaining virility with their male peers. When Your Body Gets Weak will also inspire women to acknowledge their own strength no matter the circumstance, as well as the power of unquestionable faith, and the unconditional love that transcends adversarial occurrences. “I sincerely hope that when you turn the final page, you will concur that age indeed is just a number,” says the author. Part of the novel pays homage to those who perished on 9/11 and their families.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An accountant searching for clues to wrongdoing in a company’s books? An archangel arriving just in time to help save her life? A licensed minister and an MBA in accounting coming together to cowrite this novel? No, Snare of the Fowler is a wild ride that is definitely not your typical thriller. It is so much more… Imani Richards, a forensic accountant, is on the job of a lifetime: consulting with the FBI on an investigation into a pharmaceutical company that may be involved in drug trafficking and money laundering. Then everything goes sideways. The FBI’s suspicions seem to be confirmed when Imani’s life is threatened, more than once. Someone is clearly trying to scare her off the case. Desperate, Imani recites a powerful prayer of protection, Psalm 91, that she learned as a child. And it works! More than that, this thriller takes a sharp, exciting turn, as Imani learns that this scripture has unlocked a power within her—and she discovers a supernatural destiny no one could have believed possible. Two Lemon Women are the coauthors of Snare of the Fowler and use their unique professional experience—one as a minister and the other as an accountant—to shape this powerful page-turner. More than a work of fiction, the novel presents to readers the possibility that we can all have supernatural powers if we learn to tap into the right power source.

Download or read book Florida s Coast to Coast Trail Guide written by Nanci Adler and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-11-01 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Florida's Coast-to-Coast Trail Guide is a guidebook designed specifically for the 250-mile dedicated bicycle/pedestrian trail that provides an uninterrupted cross-Florida trail from Titusville to St. Petersburg. The trail (over 80% complete and to be completed by 2025) already attracts not only local cyclists and walkers, but also out-of-state cycling enthusiasts. This book provides readers with a broad background of the communities through which they will travel. Although maps are included, this is not a detailed "how-to" guide, nor does it provide extensive lodging, camping or restaurant information; much of that information changes frequently and can be easily obtained via online searches. Instead, this book focuses on interesting cultural and natural aspects of the route. By highlighting the local flavor of small towns, the beauty of natural Florida, as well as local historical events, this book will introduce readers to the uniqueness of Florida. Distinctive features covered in the book include the Greek heritage of Tarpon Springs, Winter Garden's thriving downtown based on its citrus and bass-fishing past, Titusville's role in space exploration, and St. Petersburg’s lively waterfront and flourishing art scene. Also covered is the natural world of beautiful freshwater springs, moss-shrouded oak trees, and migratory birds found in protected areas along the trail such as Gemini Springs Park, Brooker Creek Preserve and the Green Swamp. In addition, readers will be introduced to important historical Florida figures such as civil rights leaders Harry T. and Harriett V. Moore and Russian entrepreneur and railway builder Peter Demens.

Download or read book Negotiating Cultures and Identities written by John L. Caughey and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2006-12-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Negotiating Cultures and Identities examines issues, methods, and models for doing life history research with individual Americans based on interviews and participant observation. John L. Caughey helps students and other researchers explore the ways in which contemporary Americans are influenced by multiple cultural traditions, including ethnic, religious, and occupational frames of reference. Using the example of Salma, a bicultural woman of Pakistani descent who lives in the United States, and the story of Gina, a multicultural American, Caughey examines how to capture the complexity of each situation, including step-by-step methods and exercises that lead the student interviewer through the process of locating and interviewing a research participant, making sense of the material obtained, and writing a cultural portrait. Arguing that comparison between the subject’s life and one’s own is an essential part of the process, the methodology also encourages the investigator to research his or her own social and cultural orientations along the way and to contrast these with those of the subject. The book offers a practical, manageable, and engaging form of qualitative research. It prepares the student to do grounded, experiential work outside the classroom and to explore important issues in contemporary American society, including ethnicity, race, identity, disability, gender, class, occupation, religion, and spirituality as they are culturally understood and experienced in the lives of individual Americans.
