I can`t believe I did that! What was I thinking? We’ve all got one: an inner brat that compels us to grab one more cookie or throw a hissy fit over a minor irritation. This inner brat can wreak havoc at work, in relationships, and with our self-esteem. With humor and kindness, Taming Your Inner Brat gives you specific strategies to bring your attitudes and bratty behaviors under control. You can learn to deal with any situation in a productive, adult manner. By teaching you how to recognize your inner brat, psychologist Pauline Wallin, Ph.D. helps you bring problems into manageable perspective and make changes that last. . . . Which leaves just one question, answered in this new edition: “Now that I’ve tamed my own inner brat, what do I do about people who haven’t tamed theirs?”

Get swept away by daring romance in the first novel in the Claimed by the Highlander series. In the Highlands of Scotland, plays for power are fought without rules, treachery and intrigue hold court, and, in one woman’s heart, danger stirs as relentlessly as passion... Wrongfully accused of murder and left to die in a hellish Highland dungeon, Ana Bisset has lost all hope of freedom. But the beautiful healer’s luck takes an unexpected turn when a hooded stranger appears as her rescuer. After a harrowing escape, Ana settles alone in a quiet village where no one knows her past or her reputation. The last thing she ever expects is to meet her mysterious savior again... Niall MacCurran is no hero, but a warrior on a dangerous mission to expose a threat to the realm. After his decision to free Ana, he now realizes that it is he who needs her help—willing or no—to advance his quest. But his growing feelings for the delicate yet resilient beauty soon jeopardize their safety—and not even Ana’s healing gifts may be enough to protect their love, or their lives.

You can survive the "kitchen wars"—and live in peace with your family "My sisters-in-law couldn't stand me. I was really hurt when my kids weren't mentioned in their grandmother's obituary because they weren't 'full-blooded' family." "My mom is always giving advice, always telling me to do such and such when she doesn't do it herself. If my husband and I have a fight, she takes his side!" "My sister did call me a week later to apologize but proceeded to tell me everything that was wrong with me, my husband, and my children." Sound familiar? There's nothing new or unusual about conflict between mothers, sisters, and other female family members—but that doesn't make it any less painful or destructive. Adding to the hurt of relational abuse within the family is the permanent nature of the relationship: you can sever relations with an abusive friend, but you can't stop being the sister/daughter/niece of an abusive relative. Does that mean that there's no way out? In Forced to Be Family, you'll discover how to determine whether a female family member is being abusive, recognize the sources of that abuse, and break the vicious cycle that keeps the abuse alive. You don't have to choose between accepting abuse and "making a scene." This insightful, reassuring guide gives you the strategies and understanding you need to reestablish warm and loving relationships with the women who will always be closest to you.

From NYT & USA Today Bestselling author Cherise Sinclair comes an outstanding addition to the beloved Masters of the Shadowlands series. The secret of author Murphy’s success is hands-on research. Murphy loves writing popular Regency thrillers and jumping into new adventures under the guise of research. For one novel, she’d joined a K9 search-and-rescue group—and liked it so much she stayed. But this book… Why had she thought a Regency birching club was a good setting? The challenge is, she’ll have to return to the Shadowlands. Years ago, she’d sneaked into the area’s most exclusive, private club. And what had happened to her there…well, she still has nightmares. But she’s healed now, right? When she gets up her courage to visit the club, the owner hands her over to Master Saxon. Master Saxon is handsome, powerful, and dominant. The veterinarian has a gorgeous smile, a trust-me voice, and does Search and Rescue with his canine helper, Sherlock. In the Shadowlands, he’s known as the Viking god. For years, he’s avoided serious relationships. A quiet, little author can’t possibly slip past his defenses. Even if he does adore her books. Master Saxon guided her into the dungeon. “If I birch you extra hard, will that get you to write faster?” Her mouth dropped open at his wicked grin, then his words registered. “No!” Note: Full-length, sizzling-hot novel with no cliff hanger and no cheating. A protective, dominant hero. A vulnerable, intelligent heroine. Page-turning adventure, sigh-worthy romance, hilarious girl-gang moments…and an adorable, fluffy dog.

Walking across shards of glass - breaking arrows with your throat - firewalking, Tolly Burkan shares the secrets of why people engage in these extreme practices and how, even if we only read about them, they can be spiritually educational. Through reading about over 20 of these practices, readers learn how even unpleasant or dangerous situations can help us experience love, wisdom and compassion. The interconnections we then make reveal aspects of our divine nature and leave us with a crystal clear distinction between our egos and our higher-selves. This book, using many different examples, uses a logical and enthusiastic approach to teach people how to assume a totally spiritual perspective in any situation. By doing this, even sorrowful or frustrating situations are diminished in their power to cause suffering. We can choose our reactions to them and use them as insights for spiritual growth.
