KC Hall loves her family, her small East Texas town, and her best friend, Emma Reynolds. All of that takes a backseat when her lover beckons. Lonnie is blond, beautiful, and willing. She's also married and a lifelong friend of KC's mama. KC knows the affair is a bad idea, but she just can't help herself. When presented with the lush landscape of Lonnie's body, KC subscribes to the philosophy of "orgasm first, think later." Unfortunately, a secret that big is impossible to keep in a close-knit community where everybody knows everybody else's business. The scandal would hurt her entire family. Emma is KC's exception, the one woman she loves enough to not have sex with. When Emma confesses that she's loved KC since high school, KC is terrified. One wrong move and she could lose Emma completely. Is she willing to let her family pay the price for her good time? Or will she turn to Emma to discover the true meaning of love and devotion?

Canadian-born David Jove was an actor, singer, songwriter, musician, poet, sculptor, writer and filmmaker. He could have been successful at anything he wanted to do, but it was the free-thinking 1960s and he wanted to be a magician, an alchemist, and a master of time and space. Instead, through heights of guile, gumption and glibness previously unseen in rock 'n' roll high society, David Jove achieved notoriety with one wave of his magic cane when in England he became known as "The Acid King" after partying with The Rolling Stones, and getting Keith Richards and Mick Jagger arrested in a landmark case in 1967. A few years later he became a fugitive, fleeing Canada on a felony charge, blazing a trail of music and adventure across three continents before slipping into Hollywood in the early '70s to be close to his wife, comedienne Lotus Weinstock, and young daughter, Lili Haydn. In 1980, Jove produced the pioneering pre-MTV punk-music cable-TV show "New Wave Theatre," hosted by Peter Ivers, an unsolved murder victim in 1983. He later launched the popular, top-rated website, thewholetruth.com. FREEDOM SPY is the author's first-hand, fact-based account of his friendship and writing partnership with Jove. It is the first-ever glimpse into the life of the controversial, talented, enigmatic dynamo the author calls "the wittiest, wildest, most brilliant runaway mind of the psychedelic '60s."

This book compares the respective concepts of the law of nations put forward by the Spanish theologian Francisco Suárez and by the Dutch jurist Hugo Grotius. This comparison is based on the fact that both thinkers developed quite similar notions and were the first to depart from the Roman conception, which persisted throughout the entire Middle Ages and the early Renaissance. In Rome, jus gentium was a law that applied to foreigners within the Empire, and one which was often mistaken for Natural Law itself. These two features can be found even in the works of writers such as Francisco de Vitória and Alberico Gentili. In Suárez and Grotius, the law of nations is applicable to an extra-national domain and inarguably becomes positive law. Yet, it also contains an ethical element that prevents it from transforming into a mere reflection of state interests. This work argues that this resemblance is hardly a coincidence: Grotius has read Suárez, and that influence has modified the foundations of his early thoughts on jus gentium. This should not be taken to imply that the Dutch jurist wasn’t original: in both authors, the definition of the law of nations pursues his own internal logic. Nevertheless, Suárez’s oeuvre allowed Grotius to solve a fundamental problem touched on in his early writings that had remained unanswered. Accordingly, his oeuvre promises to clarify one of the most significant moments in the History of International Law.
