DOWNLOAD EBOOKGuarding the manicured wilds of Florida's most exclusive retirement village might seem dull to a former homicide cop. But Addie Gorsky was tired of dodging bullets in Baltimore. After all, she’d moved to Florida to look after her father, and not chase criminals. Her new job as Mystic Cove security chief is a welcome change from all the big-city mayhem. But when Mystic Cove's most hated resident turns up in his souped-up golf cart with a bullet in his head, Addie springs into action. While the local cops focus on the unhappy wife, Addie knows there's more to the story. Only the deeper she digs, the more questions turn up. Surrounded by secretive, close-mouthed residents, Addie soon finds herself caught in a mystery as tangled as cypress roots--and directly in the sights of a calculating killer who is about to kill again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK'I don't know any tract of land in which in so narrow a compass may be found an equal variety of sublime and beautiful features'. So said the poet Wordsworth of England's Lake District, an area as rich in cultural associations as it is in beautiful scenery. Hunter Davies, who has spent every summer in the Lake District for nearly half a century, takes the reader on an engaging, informative and affectionate tour of the lakes, fells, traditions, denizens and history of England's most popular tourist destination. From the first discovery of Lakeland as a tourist destination in the 18th century, to the tale of the Maid of Buttermere, to the poet Coleridge's ascent of Scafell Pike in 1802, to such enduring local traditions as Cumberland wrestling and hound trailing, Hunter Davies brings England's Lake District memorably and informatively to life.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK"Fry was the American Schindler with desperate exiles, menacing Nazis, forged documents and midnight escapes [think] Casablanca." -New York Times Varian Fry, the only American honored at Yad Vashem, Israel's Holocaust memorial, was a young New Yorker who rescued more than 1,500 Europeans from the Nazi's including Marc Chagall, Max Ernst, Hannah Arendt, and other intellectuals, political activists, and "degenerative" artists, many of them Jews. This moving Holocaust rescue story is set against the backdrop of American isolationism and anti-Semitism. "The drama here is in the thrill of rescue, the realistic portrait of a complex leader, and the decidedly nonheroic truths about WWII at home." -American Library Association "One of the BEST BOOKS of 2001" -St. Louis Post-Dispatch

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWith diabolical characters, real struggles, and profound emotions, Love First chronicles the journey of young Sheila as she grows into adulthood. Inspired by true events, Sheila's coming-of-age story is about escaping the legacy of an abusive household. A strikingly dark narrative of the struggles of African American families in America and the unintended prejudices that come with it, Sheila, accompanied by her sister Lita, and her cousin Sarah, must persevere through harassment, emotional manipulation, physical abuse, and teenage pregnancy. She grows from a strong-willed, well-intentioned, albeit slightly gullible, young woman into a fierce adult who vows to fight for her children until the very end. After making it out, she finds herself on a drastically different path from Lita and Sarah, and she falls back into the same patterns that she so desperately wanted to avoid. She becomes the very thing that she wholeheartedly despises: her mother.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAlmendro is a true story about the life of the author and how so much can go so wrong in a short time. We all have dreams but how many come to pass? Laura had two. She wanted a good marriage and a happy home for the two families that tried to blend together to become one. Her second dream was to live out the Golden Years on an exotic island in the Caribbean. She got her first wish when she married Jim but he wasn’t what she wanted to believe he was. Laura got her second wish when the couple moved to that exotic island when they retired. It was here where the bottom fell out of both dreams and for Laura the struggle to survive began. Jim met Sheila before Laura ran off to Dominica with Gavin. Sheila wanted Laura’s life and everything she and Jim owned and Jim wanted to destroy his wife in any way he could. He joined forces with the psychopathic woman who betrayed him from the beginning but he was too blinded by need and revenge to see it. When Sheila realized Laura was a threat to her plan, there was only one choice to make. Get rid of Laura. Forced to live in isolation in fear for her life, Laura lived alone in the jungles of Dominica until she met the man who captured her heart and saved her life in many ways. The Afro Caribbean people took her into their care and taught her what she needed to know and gave her the strength to carry on. When Jim died mysteriously, Laura didn’t have to ask how or why. She put on her armour, picked up her sword and returned to the island she once called home. She declared war on Sheila and was willing to die to keep her dream.
