Smile through each day and avoid her at all costs. It's perfect. Until the cocksure quarterback comes into play. The last thing I want is his crooked grin and dark brown eyes focused on me. Yet here he is, constantly in my space, pushing me, daring me to care. Telling me what I think and feel, as if he knows. He doesn't know anything. And I plan to keep it that way. He's the persistent playboy who refuses to walk away. I'm the impassive new girl with nothing left to give. Things are about to get complicated.

Download or read book Tough Skins Tender Hearts written by Sameer Kochure and published by Sameer Kochure. This book was released on 2023-07-19 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mind tells us beautiful stories, But a man’s heart lays bare the truth. - Sameer Kochure. Welcome to an unveiling, an understanding, an unravelling of the man’s heart. As painlessly as possible, we will rip open a man’s ribcage and put the soft, quietly beating muscle under our microscope, in an effort to unlock its mysteries. What will we find? Perhaps some hope, some desires, some fears. A few battle hardened scars, way too personal dreams, wounds yet to heal, maybe a tender moment or two. Maybe something more? Let’s go and explore. ★★★★★ At the turn of the decade, Amazon No. 1 bestselling author Sameer Kochure observed that most of the poetry books ever written about women were either about their beauty, heartbreak or love. He didn’t find a single poetry book that spoke about the moral fortitude of women. So, in 2021, he wrote one. His book ‘Made of Flowers and Steel’ celebrates the raw grit and the inner strength it takes to be a woman in today’s world. Since then, he was looking for a good poetry book about men. There were hardly a few and most lacked depth, in his flawed opinion. So, he decided to right this wrong. ‘Tough Skins, Tender Hearts’ goes deeper below the surface and presents an honest, unfiltered look at the hearts of men. It tackles their issues, their heartbreaks, their longings as well as their failings. Much like ‘Made of Flowers and Steel’, here you’ll find poems that will surprise you, charm you and some that will even disturb you with their defiance and brazenness. A man’s heart is a complex labyrinth of emotions and ecstasies. In here, you'll find temptations, thrills and a whole lot of tenderness. 96 Poems - 1 Unmissable Collection ★★★★★ Originally from India, Sameer Kochure now lives in Dubai and dreams of being 1/10th as good as some of his favourite authors like Rumi, Kahlil Gibran, Neil Gaiman, Richard Bach, Paulo Coelho, and JK Rowling.

I was so invested in the future of this mother and son, and I can’t wait to hear what you think of this deeply suspenseful story!” —Reese Witherspoon (Reese’s Book Club Pick) Twelve-year-old Bird Gardner lives a quiet existence with his loving father, a former linguist who now shelves books in a university library. His mother Margaret, a Chinese American poet, left without a trace when he was nine years old. He doesn’t know what happened to her—only that her books have been banned—and he resents that she cared more about her work than about him. Then one day, Bird receives a mysterious letter containing only a cryptic drawing, and soon he is pulled into a quest to find her. His journey will take him back to the many folktales she poured into his head as a child, through the ranks of an underground network of heroic librarians, and finally to New York City, where he will finally learn the truth about what happened to his mother, and what the future holds for them both. Our Missing Hearts is an old story made new, of the ways supposedly civilized communities can ignore the most searing injustice. It’s about the lessons and legacies we pass on to our children, and the power of art to create change.
Download or read book Gentle and Lowly written by Dane C. Ortlund and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians know that God loves them, but can easily feel that he is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take readers into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people. His longing heart for sinners comforts and sustains readers in their up-and-down lives.
