Book Description
When seven people go missing within a month, questions and fear arise among the townsfolk of Hemlock, Virginia. When local authorities discover the body of one of the missing people in a holler close to town, it appears the victim has suffered severe tissue liquefaction. After the police find bite marks on the body’s throat, they suspect there could be an undiscovered venomous species lurking within the Blue Ridge Mountains. While the FBI and scientists unsuccessfully attempt to decode the cause of death, the locals become haunted by rumors about an insidious predator that’s roaming the mountains. Deep in the forest nearby, the alpha of the Blue Ridge Mountain clan knows that if her kind becomes an exposed entity, the humans will become hysterical, potentially leading to harmful repercussions. Although her kind has gone undetected since the beginning of time because of their physical similarities to humans, her efforts to keep her clan and species hidden are beginning to disintegrate because of the impulsive actions of two of her own and the arrival of the military. Extinction is not an option, and war is the ultimate price. What will Shadow and her clan be forced to endure to keep her kind alive?

He’ll break all the rules to keep the last promise to his best friend. Commander Ryan Tyler is a true American hero—a former Navy SEAL and the man who saved the International Space Station. Yet he couldn’t save the best friend who died in his place. Fallout from that tragic accident thrust Ty into a dark and dangerous lifestyle, but when he’s given the unexpected chance to fly again, he grabs it.

Yet here she is, babysitting the gorgeous and insufferably cocky Ryan Tyler. Everything hangs on his ability to maintain a new image for the public eye to make up for past sins. But as they spend time together, she’s drawn to the shattered man who refuses to let anyone through the impenetrable façade he’s built around himself. Their goals are firmly in place and almost within grasp. The only thing that could screw it up is falling in love.

On Pluto: Inside the Mind of Alzheimer's
Author: Greg O'Brien
Publisher: Good Night books
ISBN: 0991340191
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
This is a book about living with Alzheimer’s, not dying with it. It is a book about hope, faith, and humor—a prescription far more powerful than the conventional medication available today to fight this disease. Alzheimer’s is the sixth leading cause of death in the US—and the only one of these diseases on the rise. More than 5 million Americans have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia; about 35 million people worldwide. Greg O’Brien, an award-winning investigative reporter, has been diagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's and is one of those faceless numbers. Acting on long-term memory and skill coupled with well-developed journalistic grit, O’Brien decided to tackle the disease and his imminent decline by writing frankly about the journey. O’Brien is a master storyteller. His story is naked, wrenching, and soul searching for a generation and their loved ones about to cross the threshold of this death in slow motion. On Pluto: Inside the Mind of Alzheimer’s is a trail-blazing roadmap for a generation—both a “how to” for fighting a disease, and a “how not” to give up!
