DOWNLOAD EBOOKRock You (book 1) Working for a cranky hermit in an isolated house sounds like Ruby’s idea of heaven – but her boss isn't what she expects. Tex is a fugitive from the rock and roll world after a tragedy halted his career. The two of them live together but avoid each other until Tex screws up, forcing them to move into closer quarters. The sanctuary they build is enough for Ruby, but the outside world encroaches. She thinks their fledgling love can’t shine brighter than the rock dream but can Ruby bear to let Tex go? Cry For You (book 2) A million girls would swap places with me in a heartbeat. They weep for Tex and maul each other to get closer to him. The way they obsessed over him and put him on pedestal scared the hell out of me. I don't want our relationship made public. Every single fan would question my place beside me. Hell, I question it myself. Tex is a star and I'm nobody. Even worse, there's one fan scarier than all the rest. She'd go to any lengths to get Tex. Tex promised to protect me but she watches my every move, just waiting for her chance to destroy me. Be With You (book 3) So finally our house has been rebuilt and Tex is on track with his career. But where does that leave me? Tex thinks we can build a future together but I worry that I'm too damaged to be with him. It doesn't help that the man who almost destroyed me in the past comes back into my life. How can Tex help me when he has cracks appearing in his own life? He thinks he’s dealt with his sister’s death but he’s in denial. Is the love we share enough to overcome the ghosts of our pasts?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn this remarkable book, Dr. H.H. Nininger often called the world's foremost meteorite expert, recounts the excitement of his long love affair with "falling stars"-those "stones from the sky" that rain down upon our earth from outer space in great, but little known profusion. Fifty years ago the science of meteorites was at a low ebb. Nothing much had been done since 1900. It was Dr. Nininger's keen interest, however, that brought about a resurgence in an old science. His efforts, described with straighforward ease, account for more than half the "falls" recorded in the 20th century.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWritten for a young audience, this intense memoir explores the harsh realities of life on the streets in contemporary North Korea. Every Falling Star is the memoir of Sungju Lee, who at the age of twelve was forced to live on the streets of North Korea and fend for himself. To survive, Sungju creates a gang and lives by thieving, fighting, begging, and stealing rides on cargo trains. Sungju richly recreates his scabrous story, depicting what it was like for a boy alone to create a new family with his gang, “his brothers,” to daily be hungry and to fear arrest, imprisonment, and even execution. This riveting memoir allows young readers to learn about other cultures where freedoms they take for granted do not exist.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom Kwame Mbalia and Prince Joel David Makonnen comes an Afrofuturist adventure about a mythical Ethiopian empire. Sci-fi and fantasy combine in this epic journey to the stars. Yared Heywat lives an isolated life in Addis Prime -- a hardscrabble city with rundown tech, lots of rules, and not much to do. His worrywart Uncle Moti and bionic lioness Besa are his only family... and his only friends. Often in trouble for his thrill-seeking antics and wisecracking sense of humor, those same qualities make Yared a star player of the underground augmented reality game, The Hunt for Kaleb's Obelisk. But when a change in the game rules prompts Yared to log in with his real name, it triggers an attack that rocks the city. In the chaos, Uncle Moti disappears. Suddenly, all the stories Yared's uncle told him as a young boy are coming to life, of kingdoms in the sky and city-razing monsters. And somehow Yared is at the center of them. Together with Besa and the Ibis -- a game rival turned reluctant ally -- Yared must search for his uncle... and answers to his place in a forgotten, galaxy-spanning war.
