Briefly ashore in San Francisco to visit his family, Jed meets Caroline Collins and her eight-year-old son. Beautiful Caroline doesn't have a husband in sight and she seems surprisingly hostile toward Jed, who is used to being though of as quite a catch. But there's something intriguing about her and the boy, something that convinces Jed he should stay awhile. Caroline has never revealed the identity of her son's father, not even to her own family.

Download or read book How to Fall in Love with Anyone written by Mandy Len Catron and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2017-06-27 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully written and well-researched cultural criticism as well as an honest memoir” (Los Angeles Review of Books) from the author of the popular New York Times essay, “To Fall in Love with Anyone, Do This,” explores the romantic myths we create and explains how they limit our ability to achieve and sustain intimacy. What really makes love last? Does love ever work the way we say it does in movies and books and Facebook posts? Or does obsessing over those love stories hurt our real-life relationships? When her parents divorced after a twenty-eight year marriage and her own ten-year relationship ended, those were the questions that Mandy Len Catron wanted to answer. In a series of candid, vulnerable, and wise essays that takes a closer look at what it means to love someone, be loved, and how we present our love to the world, “Catron melds science and emotion beautifully into a thoughtful and thought-provoking meditation” (Bookpage). She delves back to 1944, when her grandparents met in a coal mining town in Appalachia, to her own dating life as a professor in Vancouver. She uses biologists’ research into dopamine triggers to ask whether the need to love is an innate human drive. She uses literary theory to show why we prefer certain kinds of love stories. She urges us to question the unwritten scripts we follow in relationships and looks into where those scripts come from. And she tells the story of how she decided to test an experiment that she’d read about—where the goal was to create intimacy between strangers using a list of thirty-six questions—and ended up in the surreal situation of having millions of people following her brand-new relationship. “Perfect fodder for the romantic and the cynic in all of us” (Booklist), How to Fall in Love with Anyone flips the script on love. “Clear-eyed and full of heart, it is mandatory reading for anyone coping with—or curious about—the challenges of contemporary courtship” (The Toronto Star).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fans of #1 New York Times bestselling author Johanna Lindsey will be delighted by this ninth novel about the aristocratic Malory family—a passionate and high-spirited tale that provides startling new information about a prominent member of the family. After her mother dies, vivacious Katey Tyler flees her dull Connecticut town for Europe, hoping to finally meet her British relatives and experience a life-changing adventure. She has no idea just how far her travels will take her—especially when she stumbles upon a high-stakes kidnapping. When Sir Anthony Malory’s young daughter is kidnapped from London’s Hyde Park, the ransom note is accidentally sent to the home of his brother, James, and is intercepted by houseguest Boyd Anderson. The notoriously hot-headed American sea captain joins Anthony in the search for the missing girl, hardly expecting that his pursuit will have him cross paths with the exquisite Katey Tyler, recently a passenger on his ship. Little does Katey realize that in having caught the attention of Boyd Anderson—and in meeting up with the Malorys—she's about to experience more excitement than the typical young lady encounters on a grand tour. A multitude of surprises await her, from the startling truth about her mother’s early life to the lengths a man will go to win the affections of a lady who has every reason to despise him—but who can’t resist the seductive, impassioned love he has to offer her. With “witty writing, charmingly unique characters, and a sexy love story” (Booklist), No Choice But Seduction will sweep you away on an irresistible adventure that is as bold and charming as the heroine at its heart.

Download or read book Proverbs written by Lucas c. Ernest and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2015-12-09 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this erudite yet accessible commentary Ernest Lucas elucidates the book of Proverbs both exegetically and thematically.

Lucas uniquely identifies “proverbial clusters” in his critical exegesis of the biblical text and uses them as the basis for interpreting individual proverbs. Several substantial theological essays at the end of the book illuminate major ethical, pastoral, and spiritual themes in Proverbs. Ably unpacking the rich wisdom embedded in the book of Proverbs, Lucas’s accessible theological commentary is perfect for pastors, teachers, and students.
