After ten years working at the Zodiac Enforcement Agency, going from a desk job to an agent, she had finally found the case that made her mind spin. Her target left few clues, other than the sound of music everyone remembered from the scene of his crimes. The songs told a story, and Serina had every intention of hearing the end. Through time and space, Serina chased her Music Man. Each scene created more questions than answers until the case became an obsession- mystery she would do almost anything to solve. The attacks seemed like more than malice, and Serina wanted to know what the answer was. It might mean skirting a little closer to the forbidden edge, but she could handle it, and when she found him, he would taste her Scorpion's Kiss.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This breakthrough book changes dating forever. Now you can find The One with your eyes wide open." -Jack Canfield, New York Times bestselling co-author of Chicken Soup for the Soul® and The Success Principles™ Practical results-oriented guide to finding the right type of man for you - and weeding out the rest "Kiss Fewer Frogs: The Fast Track Secret to Your Fairy Tale Ending" What if you could skip all the bad dates and failed relationships on the way to meeting Mr. Right? What if you could recognize the men who are wrong for you within minutes of meeting them, rather than finding out months or years later? So many women date - and sometimes marry - the wrong man, missing opportunities for happiness and wasting time in the process. Now best-selling author James Sheridan shares a revolutionary new approach to fast-tracking relationship bliss - and short-circuiting heartbreak. After decades of success as a relationship coach and countless conversations with women in audiences around the world, Sheridan now shares the secrets that have changed the lives of thousands of women. "For both men and women," he writes, "romantic relationships are the foundations of a fulfilled life, so why should you go about getting one in such a haphazard fashion?" Based on years of research in psychology, science, and the principles of compatibility and chemistry, "Kiss Fewer Frogs" empowers a woman to identify which men are best suited to her and where to find him. Unlike generic dating advice, the core of the book digs deep into seven types of men: "genetypes" of behavior, personality, and character identified by psychologists, scientists, and even spiritual leaders. Which asset does each genetype bring into a relationship? What do they dislike? What drives them? How likely will they call you back promptly? Where does each type hang out? One of those seven types is invariably likely to be your type and this ground-breaking guide can help you find him. With wit, warmth, and sometimes bold comments, the author also gives women rare insights into the male psyche and takes on topics rarely encountered in similar guides: "Prince Perfect" and revelations designed to shred artificial worldviews The one thing single mothers should avoid Six characteristics of women who attract men Rewriting the dating script for better focus and more control The power of appreciating your age, body and looks Tips on writing better online profiles The "Calls of Nature" for both sexes Woven into this step-by-step guide are stories of real men and women in their search for romance, humorous anecdotes, and reflections on dating relationships that the author overheard "last night at a bar (aka my alternate research lab)." Whether he is sharing how to recognize a "player" with surgical precision or assigning women to write down their deepest relationship fears, Sheridan motivates readers to give love a chance. Imagine having proven strategies to let yourself learn from the past and move forward to the future with greater confidence and trust. If you - or women you know - are ready to take your best shot at identifying compatible men who are serious about finding a life partner, "Kissing Fewer Frogs" will make the search both systematic and fun. The perfect prince doesn't exist, but you may very well discover a prince who's close to perfect for you.

Download or read book Kiss of the Yogini written by David Gordon White and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2003-04 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who wonder what relation actual Tantric practices bear to the "Tantric sex" currently being marketed so successfully in the West, David Gordon White has a simple answer: there is none. Sweeping away centuries of misunderstandings and misrepresentations, White returns to original texts, images, and ritual practices to reconstruct the history of South Asian Tantra from the medieval period to the present day. Kiss of the Yogini focuses on what White identifies as the sole truly distinctive feature of South Asian Tantra: sexualized ritual practices, especially as expressed in the medieval Kaula rites. Such practices centered on the exchange of powerful, transformative sexual fluids between male practitioners and wild female bird and animal spirits known as Yoginis. It was only by "drinking" the sexual fluids of the Yoginis that men could enter the family of the supreme godhead and thereby obtain supernatural powers and transform themselves into gods. By focusing on sexual rituals, White resituates South Asian Tantra, in its precolonial form, at the center of religious, social, and political life, arguing that Tantra was the mainstream, and that in many ways it continues to influence contemporary Hinduism, even if reformist misunderstandings relegate it to a marginal position. Kiss of the Yogini contains White's own translations from over a dozen Tantras that have never before been translated into any European language. It will prove to be the definitive work for persons seeking to understand Tantra and the crucial role it has played in South Asian history, society, culture, and religion.
