Book Description
When life gives you lemons, it's time for shots of tequila. That's my new saying in life, and trust me, life has handed me lots of lemons. My name is Danielle DeChenne, and for eighteen years I took every punch "destiny" threw at me. Now I'm no longer a naive girl. Traumatic abuse will do that to you. I was forced to grow up too fast, and the one person I depended on-that gorgeous Marine, Zane-turned his back on me. So now I say screw the lemonade and just give me a bottle of Jack Daniel's, because I don't believe in destiny anymore. There is no pre-destined path set out for each of us. That crap doesn't exist. Sometimes bad things happen...it's just how the world works. It sucks, but you have to pick yourself up and get on with your life. Even if it's an impossible task. I'm done sitting around and waiting for my life to change or something good to fall in my lap. It took me awhile to understand, but once I stopped being the doormat for destiny, it was time for me to take control. Now I decide where I go in life and what will happen. It won't always be pretty, it will sometimes hurt like hell, but I will make sure I live my life to the fullest... Then the gorgeous Marine from my past returned with a vengeance-except this time, I was ready for him. It's time to rewrite destiny.

The Forgotten Oracle

Category : Comics & Graphic Novels
Languages : en
Pages : 77
Book Description
In a kingdom ruled by ancient prophecies and hidden legacies, a forgotten lineage awakens to restore the balance between light and darkness. "The Forgotten Oracle: A Tale of Prophecy and Destiny" invites readers into the enchanting world of Eldoria, where the past and present collide, and the future hinges on the bravery of a young woman and the forgotten wisdom she must reclaim. Elara, a seemingly ordinary young woman from the quiet village of Nareth, has her life irrevocably changed when she begins to experience vivid, unsettling visions. These visions reveal a hidden truth: Elara is the last living descendant of the Oracles, an ancient order of seers who once guided Eldoria with their prophetic insights. As she delves deeper into her family's mysterious past, Elara uncovers a journal belonging to her mother, Lyanna, a powerful Oracle who foresaw a great upheaval and hid her knowledge to protect her daughter. Eldoria is a land steeped in magic and mystery, where ancient rituals and forgotten gods linger in the shadows. The kingdom's balance of power is precariously maintained by the prophecies of the Oracles, and as Elara unlocks the secrets of her heritage, she learns of a dire prophecy foretelling the rise of a malevolent force known as the "Shadow." This entity seeks to rewrite destiny itself, plunging the kingdom into chaos and darkness. The prophecy also speaks of a "Guardian of Light," a figure destined to stand against the Shadow and restore balance. Elara must embrace her newfound abilities and take on the mantle of the Guardian to prevent the impending disaster. Elara's journey is one of self-discovery and courage, filled with trials and tribulations that test her resolve. Alongside her loyal companions—Kael, her steadfast friend and protector; Prince Alden, the enigmatic heir to the throne; Lady Isolde, a wise and experienced mentor; and Arion, a mysterious mage with crucial knowledge—Elara navigates the treacherous waters of court intrigue, political alliances, and magical dangers. Each ally brings unique strengths and perspectives, contributing to the rich tapestry of the narrative and the overarching theme of unity in the face of darkness. The richly imagined world of Eldoria provides a captivating backdrop for Elara's quest. From the tranquil village of Nareth to the bustling capital city and the eerie, enchanted forests, each location is imbued with history and magic. The ancient temples, hidden groves, and mystical artifacts that Elara encounters are not merely settings but integral elements of the plot, each holding secrets that propel her journey forward. At its heart, "The Forgotten Oracle" is a story of hope and resilience. It explores timeless themes of fate, free will, and the nature of power, delving into the complexities of leadership and the weight of legacy. Elara's journey is not just a battle against external forces but an internal struggle to accept her identity and the responsibilities that come with it. Her story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the enduring light that shines within each of us, even in the darkest of times. "The Forgotten Oracle: A Tale of Prophecy and Destiny" is a spellbinding adventure that will captivate readers from the first page to the last. With its compelling characters, intricate plot, and richly detailed world, it is a must-read for fans of epic fantasy and tales of heroism and self-discovery. Join Elara on her journey to uncover the truth, embrace her destiny, and save Eldoria from the encroaching darkness. The fate of the kingdom rests in her hands, and the legacy of the Oracles will never be forgotten.

Precious Souls

Publisher: Partridge Publishing
ISBN: 1482870614

Languages : en
Pages : 132
Book Description
Precious Souls: A journey into the inspiring lives of special children and their families, is a first of its kind effort to understand the world of children with special needs and create awareness among people about their small requirements. There are 24 lives in the book and all are replete with grim determination -- so unlike us they are, but so courageously they live. Precious Souls calls for each reader to give nothing, but share all the love that they have whenever they see a special child. Equal share of your love, confidence and support should also go to their parents, who nurtured their special child, without losing hope. Even though they have seen surroundings with healthy children, when they look home, they have found a certain incompleteness, but they never lost courage, and fought the battle with destiny, emerging victorious. Their profoundness is worth ounces of admiration. The book explores disappointments and triumph in a narrative manner; the author telling each life as it went on during his interaction with the families. The style gets the reader involved as if he or she is seeing the child or their parents right in front of them. Late Dr A P J Abdul Kalam was so touched by the subject that he even wrote the foreword for the book. To give a glimpse of a few stories, the book narrates the life of ten-year-old Diwakar Bhaskar who is diagnosed with Maple Syrup Urine Disease (MSUD), a metabolic disorder passed down through families in which the body cannot break down certain parts of proteins. But he trounced his disorder and found his calling in painting, drawing works of art which has a rare balance of colour and sensitive strokes. An example is the logo of the Precious Souls, which the author has used to mark the immense talent in each of the special children featured in the book. Then there is thirty four-year-old S Sushmitha Danabalana, who had developmental delays compared to other children, when born. Now, she is independent and part of her salary goes to sponsoring the education of a differently-abled student. She has even won the Karnataka State Women's Achievement Award. The book tells the tale of 15-year-old Adithya Venkatesh, who suffers from from Pervasive Developmental Delay (PDD), a type of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) that slows down the ability to perceive things. But with classical music he has awed everybody and his penchant for music has been removing all barriers he faces on a daily basis. With these 24 lives, the author has managed to bring out the true essence of life - nobody is perfect, and in the pursuit of perfection, we all are on the same road. It is necessary of all of us to get together and encourage children with disabilities and lend support in the form of understanding their families. Together, we can bring a change in their lives, a message crystal clear through Precious Souls. The author, Dr Anantha Krishnan M, is a seasoned aerospace and defence journalist in India. A disciple of Dr Kalam, he is currently entrusted with the task of carrying forward a digital initiative of the former President, Billion Beats. He also spearheads Inspired Indian Foundation (IIF), a movement for unsung heroes. His first book A Different Spirit, is a moving biography of wheelchair athlete Malathi K Holla. Similar to his first book, the author has pledged part proceeds from the book for the activities of IIF.

Just Like a Woman
Author: Dianne Hales
Publisher: Bantam
ISBN: 055337818X
Category : Health & Fitness
Languages : en
Pages : 418
Book Description
In recent years researchers in many scientific fields have actively focused on what being female really means. Their startling conclusion: Almost every assumption made about women--physical, medical, historical, psychological--turns out to be untested, unproven, or untrue. Stereotypes about women are as old as time--and as current as still-too-prevalent beliefs based on male models. Acclaimed health writer Dianne Hales brings together the cutting-edge research in anthropology, physiology, psychology, neuroscience, endocrinology, and medicine in a book that reveals the complex interconnections between all aspects of a woman's life from infancy to old age. Gender science is now clearly demonstrating that women are not the second sex but a separate sex, unique in body, mind, and spirit. Just Like a Woman explains what it means to live in a woman's body, think with a woman's brain, drink in the world with a woman's senses, and react with a woman's sensibility to the stresses and elations of her multiple roles. Refreshingly free of ideology, this meticulously documented book offers a stunningly liberating message that expands our concept of human potential--and will forever change the way every woman views herself.
