Book Description
"They're going to destroy me, Lissa," Dr. David McCloud, a military physician, told his wife. "You need to take the children to safety. Then I want you to stay out of this battle. One of us has to survive for the sake of the children." But Lissa could not let David stand alone. Secretly, she set out to save him. But could two people really make a difference in what was happening? They didn't know, but they had to try. Armed only with faith and courage, David and Lissa stood up to the United States military and fought for justice. The legal results of their battle protect our troops to this day. This is the true story of an honor that could not be uprooted, a faith that would not fail, and a love that did not fear death. "Years ago, we at ABC reported this story. Now, though the names have been changed to protect the innocent, here are the chilling details behind that account, told by Lissa Hausen-McCloud, wife of Dr. David McCloud." -Sam Donaldson, ABC News Correspondent

Book Description
There’s been a revolution in negotiating tactics. The world’s best negotiators have moved beyond How to Win Friends & Influence People and Getting to Yes. For over twenty years. David Sally has been teaching the art of negotiation at leading business schools and to executives at top companies. Now, he delivers the proven, clear, actionable insights you need to stay competitive in an ever-changing marketplace. One Step Ahead offers the fundamental wisdom that elevates the sophisticated negotiator above everyone else. Readers will gain the advantage in everything from determining when to negotiate and deciphering a game strategically, to understanding which personality traits matter, why emotions are not necessarily to be avoided, and how to be tough and fair. You’ll learn to be round on the outside and square on the inside, how to command the idiom, why to avoid bumping into the furniture, and how to achieve mastery of the word and the number. While all of life is not a negotiation, Sally says, a negotiation incorporates all of life—One Step Ahead is for anyone and everyone who bargains, parents, manages, buys, sells, emotes, and engages. Based on cutting-edge studies and real-world results, and drawing parallels to everything from the NBA to the corner con game to Machiavelli, Xi Jinping, and Barack Obama, One Step Ahead upends conventional wisdom to make sure that you have what it takes to stay one step ahead—no matter whom you are facing across the table.

Book Description
How long will you wait for the love of your life? And how long will you actually endure the pain that comes from waiting for someone for an age? How long will you hold on to the trust in love? And how long will you actually believe in the smiles that love brings in some lonesome dark nights when you are thinking of nothing and nobody but your love! How long will you be able to believe that whatever happens, it happens for good? And how long will you be in a love, that you are not even sure if your loved one loves and cares about you too? Antu is a letter, and much more than a book, from a despaired lover to his love of life, for whom he has waited for an age! He has gone through the pain of numerous attempts of failed proposals, failed words, failed and broken hope and the excruciating pain of slowly letting go of her! He had become a poet in the disguise of a failed lover, and he had become a failed lover in the disguise of an idiosyncrasy of being cared and loved by her! If you too have gone through such things, you may get a connect to this! However, Antu remains an inspiration and an apparition!

Book Description
This is book 2 of the Devil’s Kin MC romance series! Book 3 is available everywhere now! There’s nothing glorious about taking her like a savage beast. I never wanted a woman or a baby. But I know one thing for sure: I’m not pulling out of Gloria until I’m fully finished. That’s not usually my style. Most of the time, I’m the bang ‘em and leave ‘em’ type. But something about this girl makes me keep coming back for more. She’s a survivor, like me. And every time we part ways, I can’t stop thinking about her body in my arms. Her moans in my arms. Her fingernails, clawing the bedsheets. But I can’t be with her. She deserves a family man, not a broken man like me. My plan was to take her for the night, then disappear forever. But something happened that threw off everything. Something that will change me for good. She got pregnant with my baby.

Book Description
Fred Gross knew much about the history of the Holocaust, but he didn't know his own, being a young Jewish child during those terrible years. In the late 1980s, he asked his mother to tell him the story of his family's flight from the German invasion of Belgium and the Nazi policies that would become the Holocaust. Later, his two older brothers added their memories. But this story is not simply an account of the years spent one step ahead of Hitler. It is about a little boy then grown man coming to know his own story and realizing the tenuousness of memory. Most of the Grosses' flight takes place in France during its defeat and collaboration with the Nazis, rounding up more than 75,000 Jews for deportation to the death camps. Gross and his family made it through these anguished years because of their fortitude and ingenuity and the help of brave men and women of other faiths, reverently referred to as The Righteous Among the Nations, who risked their lives standing up to their collaborationist government. One Step Ahead of Hitler is a story of survival told in words and in photographs of a journey beginning in Antwerp and ending with his freedom in America. "It is an important memoir," David P. Gushee, Distinguished Professor of Christian Ethics at Mercer University and author of Righteous Gentiles of the Holocaust, writes in the foreword. "Some of the most shameful moments of German, French, Swiss-and human-history are recorded here, not for the first time, but in a deeply personal way by someone who experienced their effects as a small child."

Book Description
The uncertainty of ones life and the inevitability of death is a dilemma that has tormented the human mind in all ages. One way of resolving the conundrum has been to imagine, if not firmly believe, that the individual self is immortal and deathless, notwithstanding the fact that the physical body must perish. If nothing, it weans one away from the fear of death towards an earnest hope in a blissful afterlife. Living in Death is a scholarly critique on the death poetry of Emily Dickinson and T. S. Eliot. By deftly comparing their styles, diction, and motifs, Dr. T. D. Peter unravels the beauty of contemplating and courting the compelling presence of death as an unshakeable ontological reality. The author looks through the mirror of the death poetry of two signature poets of the nineteenth and twentieth centuriesthe former, an inimitable and indwelling poetic genius who defies classification and transcends time and trends; the latter, a trail-blazing and celebrated scion of modern classical poetry who impresses with his erudition and edification, imagism, and symbolism. He finds more by way of contrast than similarity in their strikingly opposite life lines and, no less, to their varying allegiance to faith and reason, religion and spirituality.
