But when the farmer awakens, he finds that it has really snowed outside, and now he remembers something!

Download or read book A Long Fatal Love Chase written by Louisa May Alcott and published by Dell. This book was released on 1996-12-02 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I'd gladly sell my soul to Satan for a year of freedom," cries impetuous Rosamond Vivian to her callous grandfather. Then, one stormy night, a brooding stranger appears in her remote island home, ready to take Rosamond to her word. Spellbound by the mysterious Philip Tempest, Rosamond is seduced with promises of love and freedom, then spirited away on Tempest's sumptuous yacht. But she soon finds herself trapped in a web of intrigue, cruelty, and deceit. Desperate to escape, she flees to Italy, France, and Germany, from Parisian garret to mental asylum, from convent to chateau, as Tempest stalks every step of the fiery beauty who has become his obsession. A story of dark love and passionate obsession that was considered "too sensational" to be published in the authors lifetime, A Long Fatal Love Chase was written for magazine serialization in 1866, two years before the publication of Little Women. Buried among Louisa May Alcott's papers for more than a century, its publication is a literary landmark—a novel that is bold, timeless, and mesmerizing."

Download or read book A Dream Too Big written by Caylin Louis Moore and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this inspiring and provocative memoir about a young black man, Caylin Moore tells the against-all-odds story of his rise from racial injustice and cruel poverty in gang-ridden Los Angeles to academic success at the University of Oxford, with hope as his compass. A Dream to Big is for readers who want to … enjoy a compelling, true, hard-to-believe inspirational story; thoughtfully embrace a long-overdue conversation about equality and justice in America; and be inspired and find hope from a firsthand account of redemption through even the most painful life experiences. When Caylin Louis Moore was a young child, his mother gathered her three young children and fled an abusive marriage, landing in poverty in a heavily policed, gang-ridden community. When Moore’s mother suffered from health complications and a devastating experience in the hospital and his father was sentenced to life imprisonment, Moore was forced to enter adulthood prematurely. His hope was fueled by embracing his mother's steely faith in a brighter future. Moore skirted the gangs, the police, and the violence endemic to Compton to excel as a student and athlete, eventually reaching the pinnacles of academic achievement as a Rhodes Scholar. Moore's eye-opening, against-all-odds story reveals that there is no such thing as a dream too big.

You'll find comfort and peace in the midst of this busy season and be drawn closer to the one we honor, Jesus, the Christ, the Son of God. The chief message of the book is God's incredible love for you. It sings a song of worship, and using Scripture abundantly, cements in our minds the real reason Christ came to earth as a baby in Bethlehem. Reading the dreams and the accompanying messages, you'll see yourself, your struggles, and your dreams. You'll be drawn in a remarkable way to the creator of the world, the healer of your heart, and the author of your finest dreams. Diane Gruchow is a wife, mother and grandmother. She has been writing for her family and friends during the past twenty years. Her poetry and prose have been read in churches and homes across the country. She lives with her husband of 46 years in the beautiful Colorado mountains where she rides her horses, writes, and enjoys God's incredible creation. She counts among her special blessings the times she has spent teaching, mentoring young moms, and being involved in her church's lay counseling ministry. Diane says, "God has been involved in my life since childhood. Many of the days he doggedly sought me, but commitment to him was slow to come. I have loved him, feared him, cursed him, taken him for granted, and finally given my life to him. He is my reason for living. My gratitude for his forgiveness and love reaches the depths of my soul."
