Told from the male perspective, complete with playlists and photos, this tale will leave your heart hurting. Do you remember those first feelings of all consuming love and desire? What about that first loss that never completely healed, yet has always been there to define what you are looking for....your true spark. Blonde haired, blue eyed Desmond Clermont had a plan to be the best he could possibly be. He wanted to be the leading man every girl desired. He started with the basics. His clothes, his interests, his mannerisms. He knew he had to be exceptional. Then one morning it all changed. With the ring of his phone she redefined everything. She became his focus, his desire, his world. It was as if she cast a spell and became the very blood that pumped through his veins. She was everything he wanted, she was perfect. She became his addiction. Two years later yet another call leaves Desmond heartbroken and feeling incomplete. "Was I not everything she wanted in a man? Was I dreaming when she said she loved me? The one person who knew me decided I wasn't enough. What does that say about me?"

The association between our ancestors and fire, somewhere around six to four million years ago, had a tremendous impact on human evolution, transforming our earliest human ancestor, a being communicating without speech but with insight, reason, manual dexterity, highly developed social organization, and the capability of experimenting with this new technology. As it first associated with and then began to tame fire, this extraordinary being began to distance itself from its primate relatives, taking a path that would alter its environment, physiology, and self-image. Based on her extensive research with nonhuman primates, anthropologist Frances Burton details the stages of the conquest of fire and the systems it affected. Her study examines the natural occurrence of fire and describes the effects light has on human physiology. She constructs possible variations of our earliest human ancestor and its way of life, utilizing archaeological and anthropological evidence of the earliest human-controlled fires to explore the profound physical and biological impacts fire had on human evolution.

Named one of the best 25 space opera books by BookRiot! The first book in a scifi retelling of the Mahabrahata. When Esmae wins a contest of skill, she sets off events that trigger an inevitable and unwinnable war that pits her against the family she would give anything to return to. In a universe of capricious gods, dark moons, and kingdoms built on the backs of spaceships, a cursed queen sends her infant daughter away, a jealous uncle steals the throne of Kali from his nephew, and an exiled prince vows to take his crown back. Raised alone and far away from her home on Kali, Esmae longs to return to her family. When the King of Wychstar offers to gift the unbeatable, sentient warship Titania to a warrior that can win his competition, she sees her way home: she’ll enter the competition, reveal her true identity to the world, and help her famous brother win back the crown of Kali. It’s a great plan. Until it falls apart. Inspired by the Mahabharata and other ancient Indian stories, A Spark of White Fire is a lush, sweeping space opera about family, curses, and the endless battle between jealousy and love.
