Retirement isn’t easy for a former CIA assassin. For fifty-five-year-old Helen Warwick, it may be impossible. Even Helen’s family doesn’t know the true nature of the work she’s done for decades—the secret black ops, the sanctioned executions. But her plan to spend time reconnecting with her grown children has just been blown up—along with her son’s house—by hired killers. Why is she being targeted now—and by whom? Years of eliminating the nation’s enemies one sniper bullet at a time have earned Helen powerful adversaries. Then there are mysterious new foes, including a psychopath dubbed The DaVinci Killer, who wages a twisted war with a rival serial killer to turn murder into art. And when he sets his sights on Helen, she may very well become his next exhibit. From homegrown spies to Russian mafia hitmen, Helen’s ghosts don’t just haunt—they kill. And staying alive long enough to make up for the past, and protect those closest to her, will take every ounce of skill she possesses . . .

In Gracious Living in a New World, Alexandra Stoddard offers a rich assortment of ideas for achieving a gracious lifestyle. As a busy professional and dedicated wife, mother, and grandmother who revels in the energy of the city and basks in the tranquility of the village, Alexandra is uniquely poised to help us smooth the frayed edges of our lives. Positive and practical, her path toward gracious living does not require money or "extra hands" around the house. When we give ourselves and others positive time and space, our life expands to gracious proportions: "We are surrounded by opportunities for living with grace—our own hands and our own hearts are all the tools we'll ever need."

DOWNLOAD EBOOKHer gun was his wake-up call...until her courage stole his heart. In the shattered world that followed the Dying, djinn warrior Omar al-Qadir has only one goal: to eradicate the few humans left. Then he’s shot by lone survivor Olivia Raskin while investigating her isolated ranch. He should kill the dark-haired beauty on sight, but something in her defiant green eyes speaks to a part of his soul he’s done his best to ignore. Instead of ending her life, Omar instead becomes Olivia’s protector, dedicated to keeping her safe from the ruthless outlaw djinn Khalim al-Usar, whose depravities know no bounds. As they’re hunted from one refuge to another, Omar finds unexpected sanctuary in Olivia’s quiet strength and selfless compassion, a tenacious light in the darkness he’s immersed himself in for too long. With their latest haven engulfed in Khalim’s fury, Omar is faced with a choice — cling to the hatreds of the past, or embrace his growing love for the human woman who has reawakened his humanity. To protect her, he’ll have to become the one thing he loathes — a djinn bound to a human Chosen. Torn between duty and desire, Omar must wage the biggest battle of all — against his own fears and prejudices — to claim the soulmate who has released him from the shackles of his own making.
