Book excerpt: Laura Lippman, the acclaimed New York Times bestselling author of The Most Dangerous Thing, I’d Know You Anywhere, and What the Dead Know, returns with an addictive story that explores how one man’s disappearance echoes through the lives of the wife, mistress, and daughters he left behind. When Felix Brewer meets Bernadette “Bambi” Gottschalk at a Valentine’s Dance in 1959, he charms her with wild promises, some of which he actually keeps. Thanks to his lucrative—if not all legal—businesses, she and their three little girls live in luxury. But on the Fourth of July, 1976, Bambi’s comfortable world implodes when Felix, newly convicted and facing prison, mysteriously vanishes. Though Bambi has no idea where her husband—or his money—might be, she suspects one woman does: his mistress, Julie. When Julie disappears ten years to the day that Felix went on the lam, everyone assumes she’s left to join her old lover—until her remains are eventually found. Now, twenty-six years after Julie went missing, Roberto “Sandy” Sanchez, a retired Baltimore detective working cold cases for some extra cash, is investigating her murder. What he discovers is a tangled web stretching over three decades that connects five intriguing women. And at the center is the missing man Felix Brewer. Somewhere between the secrets and lies connecting past and present, Sandy will find the truth. And when he does, no one will ever be the same.

Download or read book Tantric Sex for Busy Couples written by Diana Daffner and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique program of S.E.X. – Synchronized Energy eXchange – exercises that combine Tantra sexuality from India with Tai Chi movements from China. Thousands have used these simple exercises to build a connection with their mate that recalls – or surpasses – first love. Tantric Sex for Busy Couples provides readers with a dynamically new and pracitcal approach to creating intimacy on all levels – sexual, emotional and spiritual. Blending the ancient teachings of Tantra from India, and the peaceful exercise program of T’ai Chi from China, couples discover how to create magic in their relationship. Woven throughout the easy instructions are the personal experiences of the author and her husband. Although the emphasis is on intimacy rather than orgasm, the sexual practices are designed to provide plenty of both. The basic exercises presented in the book include “Solo Stillness,” “Connected Pose” and the “Tantra TaiChi Trilogy.” Solo Stillness highlights the idea that when we each embrace our inner self, we are more able to be truly present in a relationship. Connected Pose invites the couple to simply be with each other, face-to-face, heart-to-heart, eyes open. This establishes the foundation for intimate connection. The Tantra TaiChi Trilogy focuses on three primary centers in the body – both metaphorically and physically—the Sex Center (below the waist), the Heart Center (above the waist) and the more elusive “Bindi” or spiritual center represented by the third eye and upper “chakras.” Each of these centers interacts with and influences the others. Sexual energy is moved throughout the body, rather than being concentrated in the genitals. The foundational exercises of Tantra TaiChi are preparation for the sexual practices described in the book. These include yin and yang ceremonies of sexual massage for the woman and the man, as well as “Peaceful Passion” —a sexual union that requires neither a high sex drive nor a Viagra-inspired erection. Throughout all of the practices, readers are encouraged to maintain a sacred, respectful, loving and ceremonial attitude toward their partners. This attitude alone can transform a relationship into a love affair.

Eighteen-year-old Stephanie, a freshman at Swarthmore, is torn between her new identity as a rebellious and sophisticated college student, her responsibility towards her brothers, and reeling from missing her mother. As Dean struggles to continue to lead his team to victory in light of his overwhelming personal loss, he must fix his fractured family—and himself. When a new family emergency arises, Dean discovers that he’ll never view the world in the same way again. Transporting readers to the heart of small town America, Home Field is an unforgettable, poignant story about the pull of the past and the power of forgiveness.

Download or read book Season of the Fallen Sun written by Trina M. Laughlin and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2015-10-26 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When confronted with a sudden and tragic loss, we are catapulted into a world of darkness. Everything that once held meaning is challenged, and it becomes necessary to redefine the largest and smallest concepts of life. Even the simplest everyday words no longer retain their meaning. Words can become elaborate worlds of their own. Season of the Fallen Sun is one mothers journey through word worlds like beginnings, listen, time, reconstruction, respite, and hope. It is a story of how the exploration of those worlds can impact healing and recovery, even at a time when healing and recovery seem inconceivable. While this is a personal story, it is simultaneously a universal human story. Every human being unwillingly buys a ticket on the ride called heartbreak. While every persons journey when confronted with heartbreak, is different; there are aspects that will at the very least, feel the same. Although life will never be the same, in the places where it is different, we can still find life and living.
