With her parents gone, it’s Wren’s responsibility to ensure she and her sister survive the harsh and endless winter, but if the legends are to be believed, their home may not be safe for much longer. For three hundred years, the land surrounding Edgewood has been encased in ice as the Shade, a magical barrier that protects the townsfolk from the Deadlands beyond, weakens. Only one thing can stop the Shade’s fall: the blood of a mortal woman bound in wedlock to the North Wind, a dangerous immortal whose heart is said to be as frigid as the land he rules. And the time has come to choose his bride. When the North Wind sets his eyes on Wren’s sister, Wren will do anything to save her—even if it means sacrificing herself in the process. But mortal or not, Wren won’t go down without a fight… The North Wind is a stand-alone, enemies-to-lovers slow-burn fantasy romance, the first in a series sprinkled with Greek mythology.

Book excerpt: This unforgettable, sweeping odyssey will take you through the heartbreaking reality of the modern era refugees. This novel was selected by BookAuthority, as one of the best books to read about the Syrian Civil War. Ajar was an ordinary child, just like anyone else. Not anymore. Not since that day, when the muses went silent and the cannons were heard. Syrian Civil War erupted, shuffling the cards, uprooting inhabitants and making them fight for their lives. When troubles begun looming on their peaceful town, Ajar fled with his family, forcing their way to safety. Their desperate search for asylum took them away on a tense and dangerous route, caught in the crossfires of burgeoning anarchy. Inadvertently finding themselves in their new status as refugees, they soon realized that it is just the beginning of their downfall. The new reality placed them at the receiving end of a corrupt and broken system, where they faced injustice, prejudice and racism. Struggling with an ever-alienating reality, drowning at the gutters of the crime underworld, getting in troubles with ruthless terrorists, the family is forced to flee time after time, on their way to yet another dangerous journey across the Mediterranean Sea. Does their strength as a family can withstand the perils on their path? Are they going to outrun the misfortunes and find a semblance of normalcy again? Deeply moving, achingly gripping and staggeringly relevant in today's tumultuous reality, When Winds Blow West is a gut-wrenching tale of a family trying to find peace and stability in a world that won't recognize them. "It is a very well crafted, page-turning epic that sweeps through all emotions and speaks to the most major ills of Earth" - Fran Lebowitz Rittman, Editor and Former Literary Agent, Writers House.

It made me wonder how fast ordinary life can turn into life on the run." - reader's review, Goodreads "I found the book moving from start to finish. The action, the emotion, the anguish, the unforeseen twists, combined with tremendously fine character portraits brought a new dimension to the horrifying situation. I feel this is a masterful storyteller." - reader's review, Goodreads "One of the best pieces I've read so far in the historical fiction genre.

Download or read book A Wind in the House of Islam written by V. David Garrison and published by Wigtake Resources LLC. This book was released on 2014 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Wind in the House of Islam investigates the phenomenon of millions of Muslims who are turning to faith in Jesus Christ today. Over the course of Islamic history tens of millions of Christians were absorbed into the House of Islam. But what about the opposite? Have there ever been movements of Muslim communities who voluntarily turned to Jesus Christ and were baptized? The first 13 centuries of Islam's history saw only three movements numbering at least a thousand Muslims turning to Christianity, apart from those that were coerced through wars, Crusades and Inquisitions. Today, the story is changing. Over the past two decades there have been 69 additional movements of Muslims to Christ scattered across the Muslim world from West Africa to Indonesia. In an unprecedented global survey, Dr. David Garrison, Ph.D. University of Chicago, traveled a quarter-million miles throughout the House of Islam to find out why and how this is happening today. His research took him into every corner of the Muslim world where he gathered more than a thousand interviews of Muslim-background followers of Jesus Christ. His core question: What did God use to bring you to faith in Jesus Christ? A Wind in the House of Islam reveals their stories, and David Garrison's journey through all nine Rooms in the House of Islam, where he discovered that the Wind of God's Spirit is blowing through every one of them. A Wind in the House of Islam is a 328-page book written in an engaging style, but also includes a glossary of Islamic terms, a bibliography for further reading, endnotes, 11 maps with data tables of Muslim populations, 46 photographs, and excerpts from more than a thousand interviews. Each of the book's 15 chapters conclude with discussion questions to facilitate small group dialogue and discovery. Learn more about the book at: www.WindintheHouse.org
