Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Can yesterday’s demon be the hero of today?” **Yesterday’s Demon is book 3 in the Sharpest Kiss series, but it can be read as a stand-alone story.** She’s got a talking dog, a magic rock, a supernatural mystery to solve, and a hot friend determined to make her his. Can an ex-vampire girl find love and redemption after more than nine centuries of iniquity…or will her dark secret doom everything she’s ever longed for? Marta has a big secret. She may look like a teenager, but she’s really almost a thousand years old. For centuries, she existed as a vampire, but now she’s just a normal human girl again, stripped of all her supernatural powers and many of her memories. But whether she remembers it or not, she knows she used to be a monster. She did a lot of horrible things in her past. She’s determined to spend what’s left of her human life trying to make amends by helping other people in trouble, especially in cases where her knowledge of the paranormal might come in handy. When her friend Harris calls on her, asking for her help finding his college roommate’s missing sister, Marta agrees to open an investigation. Dark magic might be involved in the young girl’s disappearance, but Marta’s confident she can unravel the case; she knows a few spells herself, and she’s got an enchanted talking dog and a psychic stone to help her out. What worries her most is the brand-new set of human hormones raging through her system, making it next to impossible to keep things with Harris strictly platonic. Marta may have made the mistake of locking lips with Harris once or twice before, but she knows it would be wrong to ever let it happen again—and certainly to take things any further than that. Her past is just too ugly, and her new life is too bizarre and dangerous. Harris is better off staying far away from her. If only he didn’t seem so intent on doing just the opposite. And if only his piercing green eyes and sultry kisses weren’t so incredibly irresistible… MORE ABOUT THE BOOK: Yesterday’s Demon is a complete novel of 90,000 words. It is narrated in third person from Marta’s point of view. It is Book 3 in the Sharpest Kiss series but can be enjoyed as a stand-alone story. If you would prefer to read the other books first, the order is: #1: The Sharpest Kiss (Lucy and Aaron) #2: Back to Bite You (Jessica and Nathan) #3: Yesterday’s Demon (Marta and Harris) Reader advisory: Yesterday’s Demon is a kisses-only romance. It contains mild cursing and mild sensuality.

Download or read book The Last Lecture written by Randy Pausch and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Never could he have imagined that while tracking his brother’s killer through a community racked with hate over his father’s arsonist past that he would be propelled headlong into marriage with the beautiful daughter of the only man who might hold some answers…nor that Briana’s gentle way and her tiny imp of a daughter might actually manage to penetrate the well-guarded barriers of his worn and battered heart. But the clock is ticking—and as Nicholas intensifies his search and struggles to save his young family, he begins to wonder if his greatest threat will come, not from his faceless enemy, but from the woman he’s dared to take for his own… Haunted by a long buried secret… Briana Corwin will do anything to protect her daughter—and in a rash attempt to keep young Emily’s “not-quite-legal” adoption from coming to light, she soon finds herself the sacrifice that will keep her little girl safe. She hadn’t stopped to consider, however, that the price might well be as high as her own heart and soul, nor that the secret she has guarded for very so very long could well destroy them all. How could she possibly have known that the little girl she has loved, and raised since infancy, is the very child of Nicholas’s own slain brother? A child he has believed dead for some three full years… From the oak-strewn hills of a deteriorating plantation home in Post Civil War Virginia to the dark and mysterious swamplands beyond, Nicholas and Briana are drawn into the most horrific battle they will ever have to face. A battle of wills, a battle of hearts, and finally, a battle against the twisted sickness of an arsonist’s mind…
