Book Description
Love is a weakness for a man like me… Two years ago my enemies murdered my wife. They took away the mother of my newborn son. That’s how I became the beast… A merciless, heartless, soulless creature. That’s why I made the deal with Ava: Take her to repay her father’s debt… I couldn’t resist. Not when I saw she feared me as much as she wanted me. I wanted the beauty, a woman nearly half my age. I wanted to own her and possess her. Then I wanted more. More than her obedience and submission. I wanted her body, heart, mind and soul. I never knew I was signing my death warrant when our paths collided. I never knew who she truly was: A Bratva princess who's supposed to be a ghost. Her dark secrets unearth old enemies who want her dead. I’m Vincent Giordano, underboss to the Giordano family . I should know better than to start a war. I should know better than to let love into my cold heart. This isn’t a fairytale. When she kisses me I won’t turn into a prince. I’ll still be the beast. Yet, I can’t let them take her. I just don’t know what it will cost me this time. Tempt Me is a DARK standalone, single dad, mafia billionaire romance in the Dark Odyssey series. If you love a filthy-mouthed, possessive Alpha you will love this. CAUTION: Be prepared for one wild, steamy ride. Read at your own risk.

The Darker the Night, the Brighter the Stars
Author: Paul Broks
Publisher: Crown
ISBN: 0307985792
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 338
Book Description
When celebrated neuropsychologist Paul Broks's wife died of cancer, it sparked a journey of grief and reflection that traced a lifelong attempt to understand how the brain gives rise to the soul. The result of that journey is a gorgeous, evocative meditation on fate, death, consciousness, and what it means to be human. The Darker the Night, The Brighter the Stars weaves a scientist’s understanding of the mind – its logic, its nuance, how we think about what makes a person – with a poet’s approach to humanity, that crucial and ever-elusive why. It’s a story that unfolds through the centuries, along the path of humankind’s constant quest to discover what makes us human, and the answers that consistently slip out of our grasp. It’s modern medicine and psychology and ancient tales; history and myth combined; fiction and the stranger truth. But, most importantly, it’s Broks’ story, grounded in his own most fascinating cases as a clinician—patients with brain injuries that revealed something fundamental about the link between the raw stuff of our bodies and brains and the ineffable selves we take for who we are. Tracing a loose arc of loss, acceptance, and renewal, he unfolds striking, imaginative stories of everything from Schopenhauer to the Greek philosophers to jazz guitarist Pat Martino in order to sketch a multifaceted view of humanness that is as heartbreaking at it is affirming.
