It's raw, it's real, it's heartbreaking, and it is so, so page-meltingly hot. - Author Mary Catherine Gebhard What happens when your love isn't enough to save your marriage? "I do." Two words woven in love. In sickness and in health. For better or for worse. Til death do us part. And death dragged us apart. We both said those vows. But neither of us kept them. This is not one of those happy stories. Life isn't made of simple choices and happily ever afters. It's a dark place. It's not easy. It's full of mistakes and lessons. It hurts. And in the end, those two words said in love, are the same ones said in hate. "You want a divorce?" "I do." Each book in the Hollow Ridge series is a complete standalone.
Book 1 in Kendall Grey's "Just Breathe" paranormal romance series.Marine biologist Dr. Zoe Morgan is working her dream job: director of a whale tagging research project. She's in her dream location: the beautiful beaches of Australia. But her sleep is plagued by nightmares-fiery hellscapes, hideous monsters, strange people ... and the gorgeous man who rescues her from them. He might be a figment of her imagination, but he sure feels real.What Zoe doesn't know is that he's not a fantasy. He's a Sentinel charged with protecting humans from Fire Elementals, using his own blend of elemental magic. In the Dreaming, anyway. In the real world, he's Gavin Cassidy, a sexy rock star who indulges in all the excesses that money and fame can buy. Gavin hasn't been summoned to help anyone since his partner's death, and he likes it that way-until he meets Zoe in her dreams. With Zoe, it's impossible to stay detached, impossible to say no. But Dr. Morgan is more than just his muse-she's the key to restoring order in the Dreaming. Gavin never believed he could fall for someone like Zoe, nor does he realize he may have to sacrifice the woman he loves to save his country."[I] enjoyed this steamy paranormal fantasy romance! Multilayered with likable characters and great chemistry, Inhale is not my usual genre but it pulled me in for a lap around the Dreaming. Looking forward to the next in the series!" - Toby Neal, USA Today bestselling author"A unique paranormal lore with a touch of fantasy, the plot in Inhale is constantly on the move. ... If you're serious about Urban Fantasy novels that kick butt -I highly recommend this one!" - Giselle, Xpresso Reads
A 40-day devotional experience inspired by MercyMe’s best-selling album, inhale (exhale) follows the sixteen-track record to create a path for readers to breathe in and absorb God’s grace in their lives. Inspired by MercyMe’s album of the same name, inhale (exhale): A 40-Day Journey Breathing in Grace and Living Out Hope follows the sixteen-track record to create a path for readers to breathe in and absorb what God can do, and then release His spirit of grace by offering hope in the world. The heart of this devotional is found in two days of entries, an “inhale” day and an “exhale” day, designed to coincide with each song as readers work their way through the album and devotional. Each entry ties to a particular song and couples those thoughts and lyrics with scripture passages, application questions, meditative verses, prayers, and space to journal. These entries are: 1. Inhale 2. Blessed 3. On Our Way (Ft. Sam Wesley) 4. So Yesterday 5. A Little Love (Ft. Gary LeVox) 6. Whiplash 7. Bright Side of Broken 8. Let Yourself Be Loved 9. Hurry Up and Wait 10. Brand New (Ft. Gloria Gaynor) 11. Uh, Oh (Here I Go) 12. The Moment 13. Then Christ Came (Demo) 14. Say I Won’t 15. Almost Home 16. Exhale Marking the twentieth anniversary of the band, after being named Billboard’s Top Christian Artist of the Decade from 2010-2020, coupled with the breakout success of the 2018 film I Can Only Imagine, songwriter and lead singer Bart Millard said, “Going to these dark places that you have to go to write, I didn’t know how to make music that wasn’t connected to something painful, especially when I associated that with the songs that mean the most to me. It’s been hard to go to that place, but I love the results when I do. For the first time, with inhale (exhale) it was more about other people’s stories than mine. I was writing out of something that I witnessed more than I experienced myself.” This devotional helps readers to reflect on themes like: - Letting go of the past - Allowing God to teach you how to love yourself - Believing that when we are broken, hope is never far behind - Wrestling honestly in the battle between faith and doubt - Trusting Jesus through the chaos in this crazy world Readers will be challenged and encouraged on this 40-day journey with MercyMe as they meet with God, accepting His invitation to breathe in grace and live out hope.
Voters across America are passing legislation that allows the possession, cultivation, and use of marijuana for medical purposes. Despite the popular support for such legislation, officials continue to resist its implementation. Waiting to Inhale reveals the whole story about medical marijuana.

The Guardian's Best Science Book of 2017: the fascinating science and history of the air we breathe. It's invisible. It's ever-present. Without it, you would die in minutes. And it has an epic story to tell. In Caesar's Last Breath, New York Times bestselling author Sam Kean takes us on a journey through the periodic table, around the globe, and across time to tell the story of the air we breathe, which, it turns out, is also the story of earth and our existence on it. With every breath, you literally inhale the history of the world. On the ides of March, 44 BC, Julius Caesar died of stab wounds on the Senate floor, but the story of his last breath is still unfolding; in fact, you're probably inhaling some of it now. Of the sextillions of molecules entering or leaving your lungs at this moment, some might well bear traces of Cleopatra's perfumes, German mustard gas, particles exhaled by dinosaurs or emitted by atomic bombs, even remnants of stardust from the universe's creation. Tracing the origins and ingredients of our atmosphere, Kean reveals how the alchemy of air reshaped our continents, steered human progress, powered revolutions, and continues to influence everything we do. Along the way, we'll swim with radioactive pigs, witness the most important chemical reactions humans have discovered, and join the crowd at the Moulin Rouge for some of the crudest performance art of all time. Lively, witty, and filled with the astounding science of ordinary life, Caesar's Last Breath illuminates the science stories swirling around us every second.
A New York Times Bestseller A Washington Post Notable Nonfiction Book of 2020 Named a Best Book of 2020 by NPR “A fascinating scientific, cultural, spiritual and evolutionary history of the way humans breathe—and how we’ve all been doing it wrong for a long, long time.” —Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Big Magic and Eat Pray Love No matter what you eat, how much you exercise, how skinny or young or wise you are, none of it matters if you’re not breathing properly. There is nothing more essential to our health and well-being than breathing: take air in, let it out, repeat twenty-five thousand times a day. Yet, as a species, humans have lost the ability to breathe correctly, with grave consequences. Journalist James Nestor travels the world to figure out what went wrong and how to fix it. The answers aren’t found in pulmonology labs, as we might expect, but in the muddy digs of ancient burial sites, secret Soviet facilities, New Jersey choir schools, and the smoggy streets of São Paulo. Nestor tracks down men and women exploring the hidden science behind ancient breathing practices like Pranayama, Sudarshan Kriya, and Tummo and teams up with pulmonary tinkerers to scientifically test long-held beliefs about how we breathe. Modern research is showing us that making even slight adjustments to the way we inhale and exhale can jump-start athletic performance; rejuvenate internal organs; halt snoring, asthma, and autoimmune disease; and even straighten scoliotic spines. None of this should be possible, and yet it is. Drawing on thousands of years of medical texts and recent cutting-edge studies in pulmonology, psychology, biochemistry, and human physiology, Breath turns the conventional wisdom of what we thought we knew about our most basic biological function on its head. You will never breathe the same again.
