Book Description
Eugene is remembering the summer of 1938 in Frenchtown, a time when he began to wonder “what I was doing here on the planet Earth.” Here in vibrant, exquisite detail are his lovely mother, his aunts and uncles, cousins and friends, and especially his beloved, enigmatic father. Here, too, is the world of a mill town: the boys swimming in a brook that is red or purple or green, depending on the dyes dumped that day by the comb shop; the visit of the ice man; and the boys’ trips to the cemetery or the forbidden railroad tracks. And here also is a darker world–the mystery of a girl murdered years before. Robert Cormier’s touching, funny, melancholy chronicle of a vanished world celebrates a son’s connection to his father and human relationships that are timeless.

Book Description
Marjo Horn shows you the way to an attractive skin. Apart from the 21-day plan, the book contains a wealth of information on beautifiers for the skin. It has information for all ages and skin types. "Looking Great in 21 Days" is a rejuvenation method that really works. The programme comprises a 21-day, mildly vegetarian diet focusing on the acid-base balance of the body, plus several very easy massages and facial exercises that can be done in spare moments, and masks made from natural ingredients that most people have in their kitchen. You can follow the 21-day programme if you want to look great, but you can also take the advice in the book merely to improve your skin and slow down the ageing process. The fact that the Marjo Horn method does work is evident from the photographs of participants taken before and after. You have nothing to lose, you can only win -- a beautiful, radiant skin. The book contains a wealth of information: how to treat dry, greasy, combined and normal skin and the skin with wide pores; discover your type of skin; beautifiers - what's good, what's not good voor your skin; what causes wrinkles- what to do to prevent wrinkles; masks of natural ingredients; how to massage the skin (skin massages); how to train the facial muscles (derma fitness); how to treat and prevent a double chin (tongue lift); how to treat and prevent sacking cheeks (cheek lift); how to treat and prevent drooping eyelids (eye lift).

Book Description
This is book 1 of the Padre Knights MC romance series! Books 2 and 3 of this motorcycle club romance are available everywhere now! I need him to take me, even if he breaks me. There’s no fighting that raw need, that pure desire. But I fell for him, and when he left, it broke me. He’s back now, ten long years later. And he won’t rest until I’m his again. ALI I knew from the start that he was a bad idea. There was a little voice inside my head, echoing everything that my parents and my students and my friends and everyone I’d ever known was telling me. He’ll hurt you. He’ll break your heart. He’ll leave you broken and alone. But there was another voice, too. Deeper and rougher and far more persuasive. It was Alejandro’s husky rasp, whispering in my ear… “You’re mine now.” And he only had to look in my eyes to see that that’s everything I ever wanted. He broke me out of my good girl shell and showed me what the world looked like. What it REALLY looked like. On the back of his bike, with the wind in my hair and his leather jacket hot from the sun in front of me… I was free. Really and truly free. And then it happened – everything they promised would happen. He hurt me. He broke me. And he left me all alone. ALEJANDRO I’ve dreamed of her every night for ten years. None of the endless club girls I’ve had since I left home have compared to the one kiss we shared. But I had to leave. I had to become a man. I’ve done that and then some. I’m become a man that no one on earth would dare mess with. My scars, my tattoos, the outlaw motorcycle club patch on my leather kutte all tell the same story: I’ve killed before and I’ll do it again if I must. And death is the reason I’m back in my hometown. There’s a war simmering on the horizon, one that will threaten to tear everything apart and slaughter everyone I once loved in the crossfire. Including her. Ali. The girl I left behind. I came back for her most of all. But she has a life now – a home, a job, a fiancé. I don’t give a damn. She’s been mine from the moment I first kissed her. And I’ll fight this war all by myself if it means getting her back in my arms. I want her. I need her. And I’m not gonna stop until I have her again.
