Download or read book Feeling in the Dark written by Victoria RenéE Manley and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2012-05 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Torianey Heckstall's personal philosophy says it all. "Feeling in the dark" is a metaphor for how she feels when she makes the most of the decisions in her life. Life is a random cascade of experiences and opportunities-or so she thought. On a whim, she decides to upgrade a flight she's taking to first class, never daring to imagine that this one seemingly random decision would change her life in ways she could only once dream of. Sitting next to her is the man who will change her life. Que`Shaune Guadau II is the owner of a billion-dollar oil corporation founded by his father. But even he knows that money can't buy him everything he craves-and he's too distracted to realize that the beautiful stranger next to him in first class could change his life too. Shaune and Tory made a deal with each other that will change both their lives forever. Tory was never a woman to go back on her own rules; even so, Shaune's relentlessness would soon make her question her unshakeable moral core. And he will do whatever it takes to convince her that he is the man for her. Neither is able to abandon the sexy, flirty, cat-and-mouse games, and this creates a problem for Shaune's best friend, Marcus Swain. Jealous and vindictive, Marcus controls a game of his own, in which the two become unwitting players. Soon, he engineers a tumultuous rift between them. Now it's a race to see which game is the more powerful-seduction or sabotage.

Book excerpt: Ms., A Must-Read Book Cosmopolitan, A Best New Book of January Nylon, A Best Book of the Month Named a Most Anticipated Book by Elle, Goodreads, Write or Die, Electric Literature, Literary Hub, Lambda Literary Review, Bookshop, and LGBTQ Reads Akúa is returning home to Jamaica for the first time in ten years. Her younger brother has died suddenly, and Akúa hopes to reconnect with her estranged older sister, Tamika. Over three fateful weeks, the sisters visit significant places from their childhood where Akúa spreads her brother’s ashes. But time spent with Tamika only seems to make apparent how different they are and how alone Akúa feels. Then Akúa meets Jayda, a brash stripper who reveals a different side of Kingston. As the two women grow closer, Akúa is forced to confront the difficult reality of being gay in a deeply religious family, and what it means to be a gay woman in Jamaica. Her trip comes to a frenzied and dangerous end, but not without a glimmer of hope of how to be at peace with her sister—and herself. By turns diasporic family saga, bildungsroman, and terse sexual awakening, Broughtupsy asks: What are we willing to do for family, and what are we willing to do to feel at home?

Download or read book Recompense written by Arnie P. Zimbelman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000-08-22 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on actual historical events that took place in 17th Century Europe, Recompense presents a fictional portrayal of how the devastating bubonic plague, the "Black Death," disrupted the everyday lives of inhabitants in the small Alpine village of Oberammergau, Germany. The response of the villagers was to institute their renowned Passion Play, still faithfully re-enacted every ten years as an expression of gratitude for cessation of the deadly malady. Brandon St. Clair, a young San Francisco attorney, has joined a tour group traveling to attend a present-day performance of the Passion Play. What he cannot foresee or explain is his mystical mental "return" to Old Oberammergau, where he observes himself as a young boy caught up in the cataclysmic events of the time. Equally inexplicable is the fact that several members of his tour group also appear to have "counter-parts" in the mountain hamlet. The catastrophe of the plague is echoed in near disaster for the tour group on their return flight home. Captain Kaspar Schisler's response to this crisis serves as recompense for the calamity he helped bring about in the past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the #1 New York Times bestselling author Karen Kingsbury, known for her “signature mix of melodrama, formula, and genuine emotional punch” (Publishers Weekly), a dramatic story about character, compromise, and the cost of having it all. Zack Dylan has a dream. He wants to sing on the biggest stages, for the biggest crowds, and he’ll do whatever it takes to make it come true. But Zack also made a promise to his college sweetheart when he left Kentucky to compete on the popular TV show Fifteen Minutes: If he made it, nothing would change him or his faith in God. Overnight, Zack becomes the nation’s most popular contestant, a country singer comparable to a young Tim McGraw. As his star rises, Zack is often asked to compromise and quiet his beliefs. Just as he’s on the verge of winning it all, his choices lead him to the brink of personal disaster. Meanwhile, a former Fifteen Minutes winner is searching for meaning amidst her own private losses. Can she warn Zack about the real price of fame? Or will Zack lose everything he loves for his fifteen minutes of glory? From America’s favorite inspirational novelist, Fifteen Minutes explores the cost of fame and celebrity set against the backdrop of America’s favorite singing competition.
