DOWNLOAD EBOOKFF Blachly's newly-discovered memoir from the late 19th century brings us an intimate view of his family's survival on the western slope of the Colorado Rockies, offering a remarkably detailed look at an historically-important era of the American Frontier. In 1880, when this story begins, land recently stolen from the Ute Indians, was being turned into ranches, farms, mines, and towns by white settlers who depended on horses for transportation and farming, while cowboys, grizzly bears and outlaws still roamed free. In 1893, a family tragedy involving the notorious McCarty Gang left the author at the age of 13 responsible for the welfare of his mother and seven brothers. His story is full of adventure, heartbreaking setbacks, and struggles against extreme poverty. Yet, in spite of seemingly insurmountable adversities, he and his family were blessed with a wealth of spirit, good health, intelligence, and wit that carried them through the hardest of times. In My First Life, Blachly takes us back in time, while painting an intimate portrait of the human experience that is both timeless and universal. It is a story that will touch the heart of every reader.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKCamden Pike has been grief-stricken since his girlfriend, Viv, died. Viv was the last good thing in his life: helping him rebuild his identity after a career-ending football injury, picking up the pieces when his home life shattered, and healing his pain long after the meds wore off. And now, he'd give anything for one more glimpse of her. But when Cam makes a visit to the site of Viv's deadly car accident, he sees some kind of apparition. And it isn't Viv. The apparition's name is Nina, and she's not a ghost. She's a girl from a parallel world, and in this world, Viv is still alive. Cam can't believe his wildest dreams have come true. All he can focus on is getting his girlfriend back, no matter the cost. But things are different in this other world: Viv and Cam have both made very different choices, things between them have changed in unexpected ways, and Viv isn't the same girl he remembers. Nina is keeping some dangerous secrets, too, and the window between the worlds is shrinking every day. As Cam comes to terms with who this Viv has become and the part Nina played in his parallel story, he's forced to choose - stay with Viv or let her go - before the window closes between them once and for all.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn essential American novel from Sandra Dallas, an unparalleled writer of our history, and our deepest emotions... During World War II, a family finds life turned upside down when the government opens a Japanese internment camp in their small Colorado town. After a young girl is murdered, all eyes (and suspicions) turn to the newcomers, the interlopers, the strangers. This is Tallgrass as Rennie Stroud has never seen it before. She has just turned thirteen and, until this time, life has pretty much been what her father told her it should be: predictable and fair. But now the winds of change are coming and, with them, a shift in her perspective. And Rennie will discover secrets that can destroy even the most sacred things. Part thriller, part historical novel, Tallgrass is a riveting exploration of the darkest--and best--parts of the human heart.
