About three-fourths of the way through our life’s journey, we suddenly stop. We stop to ponder all the “what if’s.” What if Jo had never joined the military? What if Gina hadn’t gotten pregnant? What if their choices hadn’t taken them in completely opposite directions, with completely different lives? The young girls of Polk Ridge, Arkansas reunite in Tomorrow’s Promise to pick up the pieces of a friendship long ago abandoned. Jo, an Air Force Major and world traveler has returned home. Gina never left. That careless “friend request” on Facebook is about to have lasting consequences.
David Nichols tells the story of Australian rock and pop music from 1960 to 1985 – formative years in which the nation cast off its colonial cultural shackles and took on the world. Generously illustrated and scrupulously researched, Dig combines scholarly accuracy with populist flair. Nichols is an unfailingly witty and engaging guide, surveying the fertile and varied landscape of Australian popular music in seven broad historical chapters, interspersed with shorter chapters on some of the more significant figures of each period. The result is a compelling portrait of a music scene that evolves in dynamic interaction with those in the United States and the UK, yet has always retained a strong sense of its own identity and continues to deliver new stars – and cult heroes – to a worldwide audience. Dig is a unique achievement. The few general histories to date have been highlight reels, heavy on illustration and short on detail. And while there have been many excellent books on individual artists, scenes and periods, and a couple of first-rate encylopedias, there’s never been a book that told the whole story of the irresistible growth and sweep of a national music culture. Until now . . .
Graeme Nass—also known as Horse—is happy with where he stands in life. As Enforcer for the Freed Riders MC based out of Texas, his position demands respect from members and outsiders alike, enabling him to hold firm against all comers. The work is rewarding in its own way, and he gives back to the club with everything inside him. For a long time, the only thing missing from his life is a woman willing to put up with the business that comes with being smackdab in the center of all club business. He’d about given up on the idea until he met Glenna; a tiny, feisty whirlwind of a woman who blew into his life and turned everything upside down with her quick humor and biting wit. Pair those smarts with the looks on the woman, and what man alive would pass up on a piece of that? Horse has taken the bait: hook, line, and sinker, but the joke’s on her because what they’re about to go through will tie her to him just as tightly. Glenna lost the love of her life to a cruel disease and had withdrawn into herself, shunning friends while she holes up on her small ranch. She never expected to have a second chance at love, but the instant she’d seen Horse, bleeding and dazed on the side of the road, something in him called to her. Patching him up seemed the least she could do, and then he wedged his way into her life and heart in surprising ways. She’s not one to back away from a fight, and the danger swirling around them both brings many things into clear focus. She cares what happens to him. Club enemies come calling, driven by greed and rage over past run-ins. Horse hadn’t expected the woman to stand at his side through it all. Hadn’t expected how it felt to have a woman of her caliber at his back. Then, the way it was to have a woman so brilliant, so cherished, so precious—underneath him in her bed. Horse knows he can’t go back to the way it was. Now he just has to convince her.
Question EverythingThen Dig Deeper In the Presidential election year, David Drummer, Senior Analyst in Charge of Interagency Communications in the F.B.I.s Kansas City office, is planning his retirement to Eleuthera with his lover, Rachel. Suddenly, he is confronted by a scandal of far reaching consequences within the Bureau, two apparently unrelated police killings three thousand miles apart, and grass roots rallies designed to rile the voting populace against a foreign force. While he attempts to influence the outcome of the scandal investigation, he also digs into a negative political figure from the past. His team focusses on learning who is the driving force behind the rallies, and what they mean to the election. The Bureaus manipulative efforts to bury the scandal, as well as the facts uncovered about the dangerous conspiracy cause Davids emotional and physical well-being to spiral inexorably out of control. Rachel is his rock.
