DOWNLOAD EBOOKAfter her divorce, Diane faced the daunting foreboding challenges of establishing a happy and meaningful life for herself, finding new friends, starting a new career, maintaining difficult but legally necessary contact with her ex, and reconnecting with her alcoholic mother. The only bright spot was Becca, her adorable five-year-old daughter, who preserved love and joy in her heart. A facial scar from an auto accident haunted her, but not simply cosmetically and emotionally. It helped to justify staying where she was comfortable - alone. She knew what she wanted, and needed, but obsessive worries - Am I worthy? Am I good enough? Can I trust him? Can I rust myself? - sabotaged her hopes and plans. She was ready to quit trying. Out of the blue, she won a one-week vacation in Jamaica, where Michael came into her life. He rekindled awareness of her womanhood and made her confront her doubts, jealousies and fears. When he held her, kissed her and made love to her, she thought, If ever again. it'll be for love.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTHE HOTLY ANTICIPATED SEQUEL TO THE NO. 1 BESTSELLER CARRY ON Simon Snow is back and he's coming to America! The story is supposed to be over. Simon Snow did everything he was supposed to do. He beat the villain. He won the war. He even fell in love. Now comes the good part, right? Now comes the happily ever after... So why can’t Simon Snow get off the couch? What he needs, according to his best friend, is a change of scenery. He just needs to see himself in a new light. That’s how Simon and Penny and Baz end up in a vintage convertible, tearing across the American West. They find trouble, of course. (Dragons, vampires, skunk-headed things with shotguns.) And they get lost. They get so lost, they start to wonder whether they ever knew where they were headed in the first place. With Wayward Son, Rainbow Rowell has written a book for everyone who ever wondered what happened to the Chosen One after he saved the day. And a book for everyone who was ever more curious about the second kiss than the first. It’s another helping of sour cherry scones with an absolutely decadent amount of butter. Come on, Simon Snow. Your hero’s journey might be over – but your life has just begun.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis work contains the novella Spear and the novelette The Iguana Chronicles. Spear is a prose elegy using elegy scansions, deeply influenced by Joyce's work with Dublin's dialect. My dialect is that of the California desert. It will appeal most to people who were involved in the 1980s/90s fanzine culture. There is a riddle element too. Each paragraph contains a pop cultural riddle solution. These riddles are in the Anglo-Saxon tradition. The Iguana Chronicles is a different beast all together. A jangling sprawling shaggy dog story featuring my folkloric depiction of Iggy Pop and the Stooges.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKTraffic is piling up, and strange things are headed your way in this new story collection by World Fantasy Award-winning author Tobias S. Buckell. In these twenty-seven stories you’ll find inhabitants of a small town who won’t vaccinate against a zombie plague, a lone sentry keeping motorists from stumbling into something ancient and evil, a man who puts stranded ghosts to rest, an ex-soldier traveling the seas who trades his new life of hardship for a return to swords and blood, and many more tales of speculative fiction. Buckell’s fertile imagination is on display in Shoggoths in Traffic and Other Stories as he comments on edgy issues of injustice and offers a thorny path to discover the human heart and all the strange things humans do. All the while, he keeps you looking over your shoulder, waiting for rush hour to end.
