Book Description
Wells Kennedy was a driven, ex-navy seal looking for answers in the death of his father. While years before the coroner ruled it as a heart attack, he was convinced there was more to it. Having been released by the Navy due to injuries suffered on deployment, he now had the time to do his own investigation. He would do anything to find the truth—even if it took tracking down every single person in his father’s life and questioning them. Loss was something that some people experienced more than others. For Brinley Crew it was the way of her life. Having lost her parents at a young age, she knew what it was to be lonely. Somehow, though, God smiled on her and after college she met the man who would be her husband. She reveled in the family life they created until she lost both him and their daughter in a horrific fire. Now she was back to being alone and vowed that she would remain that way. She refused to lose one more person from her life and the only way to prevent that was to remain a solitary figure. But things are never what they appear to be. For both Brinley and Wells a shocking twist of fate changes their lives and suddenly the danger is real, answers seem further away, and the future becomes more uncertain than ever.

Book Description
Some really great books just keep getting better! For seventeen years The Betrayal Bond has been the primary source for therapists and patients wrestling the effects of emotional pain and harm caused by exploitation from someone they trusted. Divorce, litigation, incest and child abuse, domestic violence, kidnapping, professional exploitation and religious abuse are all areas of trauma bonding. These are situations and relationships of incredible intensity or importance lend themselves more easily to an exploitation of trust or power. In The Betrayal Bond, Dr. Carnes presents an in-depth study of these relationships; why they form, who is most susceptible, and how they become so powerful. Dr. Carnes also gives a clear explanation of the bond that compels people to tolerate the intolerable, and for the first time, maps out the brain connection that makes being with hurtful people comparable to 'a drug of choice.' Most importantly, Carnes provides practical steps to identify compulsive attachment patterns and ultimately to change or end them for good.

Book Description
Passion ignites for an outlaw and his captive in this western romance by the USA Today–bestselling author who “keeps getting better with every outing” (Publishers Weekly on Beloved Warrior).

His thirst for blood takes him to Colorado to destroy the man who framed him. Sheltered Boston beauty Shea Randall arrives in the rough-and-ready western town to reunite with the father she believed long dead. Instead, she is abducted by a darkly handsome outlaw.

Book Description
Betrayal has a deep fascination. It captures our imagination in part because we have all betrayed or been betrayed, in small or large ways. Despite this there has been little serious work on the subject. It was this absence that inspired this book.As Akerstrom notes, betrayal is something that most people have encountered at some point in their lives. She defines betrayal as a breach of trust, when information is shared beyond an agreed upon boundary of relations, whether that boundary is a pair of friends or a nation. Taking as a point of departure Simmers work on secrets and secrecy, Akerstrom discusses categories of.betrayal, and conditions that influence its intensity. Sometimes the betrayer is seen as a hero and at other times a traitor; and sometimes there are competing loyalties. In certain situations, she reminds us, it is difficult to avoid betrayal or the perception of betrayal. Akerstrom discusses strategies people employ to avoid betraying, ranging from not telling, to making sure one does not know about something in the first place. With deft precision, she clarifies distinctions and in the process broadens our understanding.Initially inspired by insights arising from her research on the criminal informer, for which she had done in-depth interviews, Akerstrom supplements these with interviews with policemen. She has also drawn from her experiences in the field of social work, particularly with women's and crime shelters. Using biographies, autobiographies and a broad range of literature related to spies, World War II, the McCarthy era, and recent literature on whistle-blowing, Akerstrom has defined a fascinating theme. While her illustrations are sometimes dramatic, she hopes that readers will perceive obvious parallels with their own experiences. Social psychologists, sociologists, criminologists, and others interested in secrecy, secrets, and those who betray them to others will find this an unusual and absorbing volume.

A new challenge comes their way as tensions rise over race and creed, their leader and his partner brought into conflict for the rights of slaves and their own futures within a nation where all are declared equal.
