Book excerpt: Five troubled teenagers fall into prostitution as they search for freedom, safety, community, family, and love in this #1 New York Times bestselling novel from Ellen Hopkins. When all choice is taken from you, life becomes a game of survival. Five teenagers from different parts of the country. Three girls. Two guys. Four straight. One gay. Some rich. Some poor. Some from great families. Some with no one at all. All living their lives as best they can, but all searching…for freedom, safety, community, family, love. What they don’t expect, though, is all that can happen when those powerful little words “I love you” are said for all the wrong reasons. Five moving stories remain separate at first, then interweave to tell a larger, powerful story—a story about making choices, taking leaps of faith, falling down, and growing up. A story about kids figuring out what sex and love are all about, at all costs, while asking themselves, “Can I ever feel okay about myself?” A brilliant achievement from New York Times bestselling author Ellen Hopkins—who has been called “the bestselling living poet in the country” by Mediabistro.com—Tricks is a book that turns you on and repels you at the same time. Just like so much of life.

Download or read book Behind The Shadow Parts 1 4 written by Antoinette George and published by Brangwyn Press. This book was released on 2020-12-18 with total page 1980 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Compelling romance and swashbuckling thrills. Shadows aren’t always what they seem. The dramatic and gripping story of one man with two lives and the woman he craves, but cannot have… It started with one exceptional man, Francis Granville. He was a British aristocrat with an illustrious title and lineage that could be traced back for centuries. However, this was no bored, frivolous, idle peer or courtier. Behind the veneer of remote, ducal aloofness that most of late 18th century aristocratic society saw, Francis was both an extremely able as well as a down-to-earth and charming man. To those aware of his extensive business interests, he was astute, rich and powerful, with diverse enterprises and holdings around the expanding British Empire and further, to countries eager and open to trade. However, absolutely no one knew about his ‘little sideline’ - because he was also a ruthless, faceless and elusive criminal, known only as The Shadow, or L’Ombre. He had a price on his head and was wanted on both sides of the English Channel for smuggling and pirating. Francis Granville was one man with two lives. And then, one fateful day changed the course of his life. While he was in Normandy, in northern France, on one of his illegal trading expeditions, L’Ombre was approached for help by a Frenchwoman, desperate to save her family. The lengths she’d gone to in order to find him and plead her case made him wonder what it would be like to have someone care for him so much they’d risk losing everything they owned, including their freedom, even their life, just to save him from a dire fate. Francis had always managed to wrap most people around his little finger, especially women; he’d also laughed at danger, thought himself untouchable and invincible, and relished the excitement his secret double life brought him. That was until his long-time enemy finally caught up with him, a malicious and clever adversary who’d been using the growing social unrest and inefficient government in France during the late 1780’s and the start of the Revolution to further his own nefarious ends. Francis’s arrogance and distraction were nearly his downfall, causing him to risk losing not only his life in terrible circumstances, but also the unconventional woman who meant everything to him.

Download or read book Lyrics for sale written by Steve Price and published by BookRix. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 739 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Part one of two books comprising of the complete works of lyrics and poems I have written over the past 5 or 6 years (to 2016). Some of the lyrics have been changed or updated from the original, many others are unchanged. I cannot write music so cannot claim to call them songs. All the words written are my personal opinion and not meant to influence peoples beliefs or views, so please do not take them as a personal insult. I write to relieve the daily grind of everyday life and am influenced by what I see and hear. A simple sentence or word can give me an idea. I write lyrics very quickly in a matter of minutes which may not be an ideal way of writing, but it suits me. I hope you enjoy what you read.

Download or read book New Horizons in the Neuroscience of Consciousness written by Elaine K. Perry and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating cornucopia of new ideas, based on fundamentals of neurobiology, psychology, psychiatry and therapy, this book extends boundaries of current concepts of consciousness. Its eclectic mix will simulate and challenge not only neuroscientists and psychologists but entice others interested in exploring consciousness. Contributions from top researchers in consciousness and related fields project diverse ideas, focused mainly on conscious nonconscious interactions: 1. Paving the way for new research on basic scientific - physiological, pharmacological or neurochemical - mechanisms underpinning conscious experience ( bottom up approach); 2. Providing directions on how psychological processes are involved in consciousness ( top down approach); 3. Indicating how including consciousness could lead to new understanding of mental disorders such as schizophrenia, depression, dementia, and addiction; 4. More provocatively, but still based on scientific evidence, exploring consciousness beyond conventional boundaries, indicating the potential for radical new thinking or quantum leaps in neuroscientific theories of consciousness.

Download or read book The Axis of Madness written by Roger Jackstone and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-02-01 with total page 1041 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book is not like anything that’s ever been written. Hopefully, it’s not too disturbing that it drives those who need to read it away. Its subject is sex and abortion, which have become politically divisive since Roe, and the Right and Left fighting over the solution to problems caused by sexual repression are portrayed as wings of the beast, working together like the ratchet and cogs of a medieval rack. Also the thread is compressed; it covers a wide range of topics and branches from the story line to make points in many places. The book’s intention is to warn people the path the elite have us on leads to disaster. It does it in four parts; the first establishes the framework, and the others are a dream sequence by the central character Thomas Warden, an attorney who prosecutes sex criminals and has political ambitions. In the beginning, his intentions are pure. The evil he fights against is real, and it needs to be stopped, but he, like most people, doesn’t realize that Satan has found a way into the world, that Satan is smarter than him, and that he’s being used.
