Book Description
"A spellbinding, genre-bending delight for fans of romance and fantasy alike.” — Kat Turner With elements of Outlander, Thor, and The Time Traveler's Wife, book one in the ROOTS AND STARS series follows a time-traveling musician who weaves her destiny with three men in alternate histories, and plunges so far into the past that dragons still exist. As Shelta’s music bridges worlds, her fate is intertwined with three men who share the same soul: A Scottish spymaster. A mountain man hunted by outlaws. A Viking demigod with the secrets of dragons. To be a family they must pay Time's price: Love. Grieve. Surrender. Fight. PRAISE FOR FALLING THROUGH THE WEAVING: “This book is sweet and steamy with a dreamy vibe that will suck you in. Like cowboys? How about Scottish Lords? Maybe you prefer Norsemen. Dragons? Blend Outlander and Game of Thrones with a few cowboys and gods and you’ll almost capture the essence. Falling Through the Weaving has something for every romance reader.” — Author Elysia Lumen Strife “Shelta’s journey of discovery left me with an enormous sense of peace and trust. A vivid and lyrical adventure. I look forward to the next part of the tale!” — Halla Williams, Writer “I am an avid reader and work at Duart Castle as PA to the Chief, Sir Lachlan Maclean, and also as a visitor guide. I have been utterly captivated by Shelta and her journey through time and dimensions and her link to the one soul in three men. Shelta's musical intuition and connection to nature's song is fascinating and I feel a resonance with that in my own soul.” — Alison Canham, from Duart Castle, Scotland, a major setting in Falling Through the Weaving “Talon has the timeless voice of a classic, undying author. From beginning to end, the writing was masterful… each page a new brushstroke against the canvas of not just one life, but many across time. I really felt like I was living it with her.” — Kristina Castillo, Writer “This is some seriously good series writing. Some series start slow, but this isn't one of them. This was on full boil almost from the first paragraph and it did what seems the impossible. Gave us a place to stop and catch our breath without doing any harm to the next book. It's just remarkably well done; you will absolutely love it.” — Tom Wacker, Writer Shelta's story continues in Book Two of ROOTS AND STARS: Dragons in the Weaving.

"Mommy burned up." On a cloudy day in August 2003, Grace and Lily Pearson, 4 and 3, were flying in their uncle's plane along with their mother on their way to their grandpa's birthday party near Lake Superior, when Lily noticed the trees out the window were growing close; so close she could almost touch them.

A story of tragedy, survival, and justice, Damian Fowler's Falling Through Clouds is about a young father's fight for his family in the wake of a plane crash that killed his wife, badly injured his two daughters, and thrust him into a David-vs-Goliath legal confrontation with a multi-billion dollar insurance company. Blindsided when he was sued in federal court by this insurance company, Toby Pearson made it his mission to change aviation insurance law in his home state and nationally, while nursing his daughters to recovery and recreating his own life. Falling Through Clouds charts the dramatic journey of a man who turned a personal tragedy into an important victory for himself, his girls, and many other Americans.

Book Description
THE MESSAGE of this story is that for many people it just "isn't safe to die." That we better be planning for eternity with whatever time we have on this earth. Hell is real and no matter how much we are in denial we will face that someday. That's a fact. I was flat-lined, clinically dead. Going into this surgery I had no belief in God and hadn't in over 15 years. I was bitter and angry at the thought of God because if He did exist He had taken my seven-year old son in a tragic accident. During the time in the operating room I was given the gift of knowing God, feeling His presence and peace then "all hell broke loose," as I plummeted into the horrific pit of darkness and burning pain with no hope of ever hitting the bottom. Kat Dunkle is the founder of Customer Research, Inc., an internationally recognized marketing and research corporation, also the focus of many magazine and newspaper articles on women in business. She is a Class services communicator, guest speaker for Rest Ministries, Kairos prison Ministry, Grief Share, Ford Motor Co. standards program, Chevrolet Zone mgrs speaker.

Book Description
When first time homeowner Charlie moves into his new house, he expects he's left The Horror behind—the possibly demonic entity that haunted his dreams in his old apartment. Moving in the middle of a scorching Arizona summer with his cat, Tango, the place needs some redecorating, and maybe a few repairs, but the most important part is that it's his. While The Horror is no longer with him, it soon becomes clear that something else is. There are strange noises, things move around, and Tango senses something that Charlie can't see. But as he starts to fear that maybe The Horror did follow him here, he's very quickly relieved to learn that this place is haunted with its own ghost—and this ghost is a sexy, sultry man who is determined to protect Charlie from otherworldly terrors. As he grows closer—and more intimate—with this ghost, the edges of Charlie's reality begin to fray. Even when he realizes that this sexy ghost lover might have less than noble intentions, the claws may already be in too deep to escape. But with how the ghost pleasures him in ways no mere mortal can, he's not even sure he wants to save himself…

The Anatomy of Harpo Marx
Author: Wayne Koestenbaum
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520951980
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 311
Book Description
The Anatomy of Harpo Marx is a luxuriant, detailed play-by-play account of Harpo Marx’s physical movements as captured on screen. Wayne Koestenbaum guides us through the thirteen Marx Brothers films, from The Cocoanuts in 1929 to Love Happy in 1950, to focus on Harpo’s chief and yet heretofore unexplored attribute—his profound and contradictory corporeality. Koestenbaum celebrates the astonishing range of Harpo’s body—its kinks, sexual multiplicities, somnolence, Jewishness, "cute" pathos, and more. In a virtuosic performance, Koestenbaum’s text moves gracefully from insightful analysis to cultural critique to autobiographical musing, and provides Harpo with a host of odd bedfellows, including Walter Benjamin and Barbra Streisand.
