Book Description
At the age of thirty-two, Harriet Swift thinks she has the perfect life - a satisfying career, her own flat and a new boyfriend. But when her only sister is killed in a car crash, Harriet is forced to give up her well-ordered life and move back to her childhood home, Maple Drive, to help her parents look after her orphaned niece and nephew. Sacrificing so much doesn't come easy and before long Harriet discovers things about her family and herself she never believed possible. Meanwhile, the shabbiest house in Maple Drive has a new occupant. In his mid-forties, Will Hart also thinks he has the perfect life. Having dispensed with an early mid-life crisis and swapped his successful career as a lawyer for that of an antiques dealer, Will believes in living for the moment. He has everything he needs; two fantastic daughters and a comfortable home. But after a startling revelation, things begin to unravel. Then, from nowhere, tragedy strikes and Will finds himself facing the biggest challenge of his life. Both Harriet and Will have no choice but to piece together a new future for themselves, but can they see it through?

Book Description
What can the Bible teach us about unconditional, everlasting, life-changing love? Join #1 New York Times bestselling author Dr. Les Parrott as he shows us that we all deserve Love Like That. In this authentic, practical book, Dr. Parrott provides a simple plan to improve all of your relationships--with spouses, family, friends, coworkers, and even strangers. Dr. Parrott takes proven findings from psychology and sociology and blends them with biblical teaching to reveal five transformative ways of relating to people demonstrated by Jesus himself. In Love Like That, Dr. Parrott gives you the tools you need to love like Jesus, because when you do: you become less detached and more mindful you become less exclusive and more approachable you become less judgmental and more grace-full you become less fearful and more bold you become less self-absorbed and more self-giving Dr. Parrott teaches us that loving like Jesus can be a daily reality for anyone who chooses it. Why? Because this love isn't elusive. It isn't pie-in-the-sky. It isn't out of reach or relegated to untouchable saints. It's real. Jesus gives us practical examples of how to love in extraordinary ways. And you're likely closer to it than you know. Praise for Love Like That: "From the first vulnerable sentence, this heart-felt message from Dr. Parrott will compel you to not only be a better person, it will show you exactly how you can do just that." --Dave Ramsey, #1 bestselling author and radio host "Refreshingly honest and incredibly practical.

I've personally benefited from this helpful book, and you will too." --Lysa TerKeurst, president of Proverbs 31 Ministries and bestselling author of Forgiving What You Can’t Forget "With an incredible blend of contemporary social science and a deep understanding of Scripture, Les Parrott's writing will help you see beyond what you may be tempted to settle for. And he'll show you the way, step-by-step, to realizing the kinds of relationships we all long for." --Lee Strobel, New York Times bestselling author of The Case for Christ

Book Description
A collection of poems and thoughts that are an ode to the domain of the heart, Beyond Love and Devotion cajoles and inspires the reader to look at love as a synonym of the infinite, a soliloquy of an all pervading love. The expression of the relationship between the lover and the beloved is an overriding theme of Shodhan's work. Strongly reminiscent of the devotional Bhakti tradition of Hinduism and the mystical Sufi poets, at times his writings express the pain and agony of separation, at other times offering an insight into the profound bliss of communion. These poems and writings follow no obvious course; they flit effortlessly and seamlessly from one seeker to another, staying true only to the path: the journey of love. Discarding all explanations and transcending the norms and conventions of society, a lover's whispers to his or her Beloved offer a primordial combination of lyrical eloquence with a mystical revelation. This is a journey that is timeless, appealing to the hearts of all those aspiring for love and beauty.

Book Description
KC Hall loves her family, her small East Texas town, and her best friend, Emma Reynolds. All of that takes a backseat when her lover beckons. Lonnie is blond, beautiful, and willing. She's also married and a lifelong friend of KC's mama. KC knows the affair is a bad idea, but she just can't help herself. When presented with the lush landscape of Lonnie's body, KC subscribes to the philosophy of "orgasm first, think later." Unfortunately, a secret that big is impossible to keep in a close-knit community where everybody knows everybody else's business. The scandal would hurt her entire family. Emma is KC's exception, the one woman she loves enough to not have sex with. When Emma confesses that she's loved KC since high school, KC is terrified. One wrong move and she could lose Emma completely. Is she willing to let her family pay the price for her good time? Or will she turn to Emma to discover the true meaning of love and devotion?

Book Description
A deeply-reported examination of why "doing what you love" is a recipe for exploitation, creating a new tyranny of work in which we cheerily acquiesce to doing jobs that take over our lives. You're told that if you "do what you love, you'll never work a day in your life." Whether it's working for "exposure" and "experience," or enduring poor treatment in the name of "being part of the family," all employees are pushed to make sacrifices for the privilege of being able to do what we love. In Work Won't Love You Back, Sarah Jaffe, a preeminent voice on labor, inequality, and social movements, examines this "labor of love" myth—the idea that certain work is not really work, and therefore should be done out of passion instead of pay. Told through the lives and experiences of workers in various industries—from the unpaid intern, to the overworked teacher, to the nonprofit worker and even the professional athlete—Jaffe reveals how all of us have been tricked into buying into a new tyranny of work. As Jaffe argues, understanding the trap of the labor of love will empower us to work less and demand what our work is worth. And once freed from those binds, we can finally figure out what actually gives us joy, pleasure, and satisfaction.
