Have you ever wondered what caused that feeling of someone walking past you when there was nobody there? Have you ever smelled perfume when you were alone in a room? Kelsey Baxter was just another single girl in the world. She'd go to bonfires with her friends and she'd work all day with the horses. It was her dream job. When she volunteered to help clear someone's name online, she got a lot more than she bargained for. Wyatt Cage was a military man. He'd had the training to get almost any task done. When he joined in on the task of clearing someone's name online, he saw her picture. The only thing he knew was her name - Kelsey. When Wyatt started seeing threats against her, he decided it was his duty to protect her. What he didn't count on was falling for her. In this story of mystery, romance and the supernatural, things aren't always what they seem. People aren't what you think they are. It's a story of finding an Impossible Fate. A story of true love that will pull you in and not let you go.

Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Rana Dajanis Five Scarves: Doing the ImpossibleIf We Can Reverse Cell Fate, Why Cant We Redefine Success? is an exploration of the intersections between gender, race, religion, and science told through the eyes of one of the worlds leading Muslim women scientists. Dajani, a Professor of Molecular Biology at the Hashemite University of Jordan, points to the 2006 discovery of induced pluripotent stem cells which allowed researchers to reverse engineer embryonic life forms, and asks us why a similar breakthrough might not be possible in the pursuit of gender equality. Seeking a paradigm shift in the fight against womens oppression, Dajani makes the case for radically transforming the social institutions, cultures, and customs of our world to fully validate and support all women. The reader is led through the many phases of Dajanis dizzying life journey, from the bustling world of Amman, to the quiet neighborhoods of Iowa City, back through Jordans universities, schools, and refugee camps, and into the halls of Harvard, Cambridge, Grenoble, and the United Nations. The author wears five scarves, those of a mother, teacher, scientist, social entrepreneur, and feminist. Her story tells of all the challenges shes faced and the innovations shes made in everything from genetic analysis and science pedagogy, to grassroots social change and Islamic perspectives on evolution. Finally, Dajani offers a provocative and far-reaching meditation on the fight for womens liberation today and what it would take to build a truly equal and humane society.

Book Description
Stranded as a mortal after Karma decided to balance him, Fate faces the challenge of living out life as one of the humans he normally mocks. His first problem: all the other deities, demons and Immortals who want payback for him messing with their futures now know he’s vulnerable. But it’s his second issue he doesn’t know exactly how to handle. There’s this girl. She’s special. And she shouldn’t exist, because he tweaked his own future to keep his preordained mate from being born. Stephanie doesn’t think twice about the handsome, enigmatic man she crosses paths with at a book festival in the swanky coastal town of Carmel. She definitely isn’t happy about having to rescue him from a freakish looking gang of men. She outright flees when the man with the beautiful eyes claims he stole her soul – and the demons are coming for them both. Soon, demons are the least of their worries. Without Fate to keep them in check, the Dark One and the Council That Was Seven are poised to tear the world apart. Stephanie becomes stuck in the middle of the brewing war, while Fate, for the first time in his life, is forced to watch from the sidelines. Love takes a backseat to dangerous politics, and the two strangers are forced to trust one another in order to stop what’s coming.

Book Description
“We are on our own now … From here on out, we win or lose on our own merit. We either save the realm, or we condemn it to burn.” With the war in the Upper Realm in full swing, Grace has her hands full fighting for a society that has only just begun to accept her as its own. The House of Darkness and High Lord Carron only grow stronger, and with demonic magic involved, there’s no telling what havoc the enemy plans to wreak across the Three Realms. She has no time to think about Aiden’s return to the House of the Evening and her conflicting feelings for him. And there’s no time to confront Faolan about the kiss they shared and what might be brewing between them. There are battles to fight, lands to liberate, and, most importantly, an all-too-pressing prophecy to decipher. Caught in a vicious cycle of victory and defeat, Grace has to confront her heritage once and for all and fulfill the prophecy with her friends by any means necessary, whether or not it is the fate that she desires for herself.

On Poets and Others
Author: Octavio Paz
Publisher: Skyhorse
ISBN: 1628723920
Category : Literary Collections
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
The Nobel Prize–winning poet and man of letters Octavio Paz was also a brilliant reader of other writers, and this book selects his best critical essays from over three decades. In the sixteen pieces collected here, Paz discusses a wide range of poets and writers, both American and international, from Robert Frost and Walt Whitman to William Carlos Williams; from Fyodor Dostoevsky to Luis Buñuel to Alexander Solzhenitsyn; and from Charles Baudelaire to Jean-Paul Sartre, André Breton, and Henri Michaux. Paz writes, “I believe that a writer’s attitude to language should be that of a lover: fidelity and, at the same time, a lack of respect for the beloved object. Veneration and transgression.” When this original thinker meets these writers, each essay is an adventure of the mind.
