Book Description
Michigan born-and-bred Petie Singer is not happy, not happy at all! Her best friend just inherited ocean-front property in California, and Petie is suddenly Emma-less for the first time in fifty years. So when Emma invites her to help on the big cross-country move, Petie thinks that's a great idea. But from the first day, things aren't what she's expecting. It's bad enough that Emma, after just two weeks in California, seems changed almost beyond recognition: vibrant and glowing, younger somehow, full of secrets and mysteries. But when Petie gets to Emma's beachfront home, things get even stranger. And the most unexpected thing of all is the growing restlessness that grips Petie. She's never even seen an ocean before, but the closer she gets to it, the more loudly its siren song calls her. Insistent and irresistible, singing through her veins, it pulls at her, luring her until she finally plunges in and WHOOSH, is swept away on a rogue wave into a way-too-close encounter with the very heart of the sea. Three days later she's tossed back up on the beach, battered, bruised, and strangely - decorated? She's left questioning not only where she's been, but who she is and, in fact, what she is. There's only one thing she knows for sure: her life will never be the same. Even if she can stay out of the water . . . . The eagerly anticipated companion to Left Turn at Cloud 9 brings Petie and Emma back for more mystery and mischief!

Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea
Author: Gary Kinder
Publisher: Grove/Atlantic, Inc.
ISBN: 155584796X
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 526
Book Description
“Titanic meets Tom Clancy technology” in this national-bestselling account of the SS Central America’s wreckage and discovery (People). September 1875. With nearly six hundred passengers returning from the California Gold Rush, the side-wheel steamer SS Central America encountered a violent storm and sank two hundred miles off the Carolina coast. More than four hundred lives and twenty-one tons of gold were lost. It was a tragedy lost in legend for more than a century—until a brilliant young engineer named Tommy Thompson set out to find the wreck. Driven by scientific curiosity and resentful of the term “treasure hunt,” Thompson searched the deep-ocean floor using historical accounts, cutting-edge sonar technology, and an underwater robot of his own design. Navigating greedy investors, impatient crewmembers, and a competing salvage team, Thompson finally located the wreck in 1989 and sailed into Norfolk with her recovered treasure: gold coins, bars, nuggets, and dust, plus steamer trunks filled with period clothes, newspapers, books, and journals. A great American adventure story, Ship of Gold in the Deep Blue Sea is also a fascinating account of the science, technology, and engineering that opened Earth’s final frontier, providing “white-knuckle reading, as exciting as anything . . . in The Perfect Storm” (Los Angeles Times Book Review). “A complex, bittersweet history of two centuries of American entrepreneurship, linked by the mad quest for gold.” —Entertainment Weekly “A ripping true tale of danger and discovery at sea.” —The Washington Post “What a yarn! . . . If you sign on for the cruise, go in knowing that you’re going to miss meals and a lot of sleep.” —Newsweek

Pages : 111
Book Description
God has been revealing to me that writing is an effective way for me to share my heart with Him; I feel encouraged to use it as a way to share his love and my faith in him with you. I have spent the majority of my life searching desperately for the missing piece to complete my life puzzle. The discovery of my life has been made....Jesus. From the bottom of my heart to the top of the highest mountain, I would like to proclaim to everyone who is alive, ?God loves you! God wants to be close to you! You are created for HIM! He his waiting with open arms and unending love for you! God forgives you! We can approach God with confidence in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The idea of this book grew from a seed planted in my heart on November 9, 2012. While reading II Kings, God revealed to me an important role in my Christian life. God tells of King Hezekiah, who was aware of God's presence in past events, had a personal relationship with God via a powerful prayer life, and trusted in God's help for current events in his life. One thing he lacked was his concern for future generations. God convicted my heart that I was lacking this as well. Not sure what to do, I prayed that God would show me. A book. Since I will not be around forever to share my faith with future generations, I can share my faith through a book. This is the first and possibly the only book I will write; I will leave that up to God. This is a collection of prayers and writings regarding some truths God has revealed to me. An invitation to you...to draw near, speak to God about what is on your heart, then be still, and know that He is God. This is the sacrifice God wants from us. He wants us to share our heart with him and trust him and his word to guide our lives. Talk to God about anything you would a family member, best friend, co-worker, etc. God wants us to come to Him first.

My Words for Living

Book Description
The idea that we come across very similar events in life, time and time again is not new. One's life-spiral forever grows and extends out into the world and universe. My Words for Living evolved whilst I contemplated life in 2020, a year of restriction and forfeits but most importantly, for me, personal growth, acceptance and appreciation. A volume of poetry is like a set of short stories, each a separate entity, a different tale, mood and energy. Like a box of chocolates, you may find one or two are your favourites but I invite you to give them all a try. Perhaps you could allow My Words for Living into your mind and feel them in your heart.
