We all have guilty pleasures.
Mine was the boy my father took in. The guy everyone said I was too good for. The one I knew would ruin me.
The way Noah Greyson's voice sounded when he sang whiskey lullabies to me in the dark; how perfect his arms felt wrapped around my stomach with his nose nuzzled in my hair-that's what made me fall. That intimacy was what made me weak.
But now millions of women drift off to sleep while Noah sings the love story we wrote, and it was never meant for the world.
The worst mistake I made wasn't loving him, it was thinking he loved me, too. At least that's what I thought, until now . . .
This is the first story collection ever from bestselling fantasy and science fiction writer L. E. Modesitt, Jr. Modesitt began publishing short fiction in the SF magazines in the 1970s, and this collection includes a selection of stories from the whole of his career. Some of the early stories are kernels for his early SF novels, others display the wide range of his talents and interests, from satire to military adventure.
This book also contains three new Modesitt stories: 'Black Ordermage,' set in Modesitt's bestselling Recluce series; 'Beyond the Obvious Wind,' set in his Corean Chronicles universe; and 'Always Outside the Lines,' which is related to the Ghost of Columbia books. Viewpoints Critical is an excellent introduction to the work of one of the major SF and fantasy writers publishing today.
Git O'Rourke is from the wrong side of the tracks-even if, in the depressed Rust Belt town of Baxter, it's not always clear where that designation begins. A single mother, she works hard to support her daughter Charlie, but still finds time to cut loose every once in a while, to go to a local bar, drink martinis, and find a companion for the night. Which is exactly how she ends up in a hotel room with a strange man passed out on heroin, and how she comes to possess the bag of money and guns that he left open as he got his fix.
When the dead body is discovered at the Skyview Motor Court, a bullet through its forehead, officer Delia Mariola is one of the first on the scene. She recognizes the victim as the perpetrator in an earlier crime-a domestic violence call-but that does little to explain how he ended up in the situation in which they find him. She knows he's connected to the local mob, but the crime scene doesn't exactly resemble their typical hit. Instead, all signs point to a pick-up gone wrong. Which means that all signs point to Git.
A twisted tale set in a tough town, The Yards is a multiple-voiced mystery with two unforgettable women at its core; its suspenseful, thrilling, and unpredictable plot will keep the listener guessing until the very end.
Gulf Coast Paranormal returns for an all new season of paranormal investigations!
Faced with the challenge of building a new team, Sierra and Joshua accept a landmark paranormal activity case. After receiving Midas's blessing, the McBrides quickly call in favors to meet the deadline so the new owners of Wayland Manor can safely open the historic home to the public. The new paranormal investigators include Macie Graves, the sister of the late Jocelyn Graves. Everyone brings their A-game to discover who or what may be haunting the historic home, but will it be enough?
Books fly off shelves, jewelry disappears, and even worse, a collection of haunted dolls seem to have a mind of their own. After one of the team members disappears, Sierra uses her skills as a medium to connect to the other side.
One particular entity makes his presence known with inappropriate and terrifying behavior. Will the Gulf Coast Paranormal team be able to put the owner's fears to rest? Will they all survive?
What if you fell in love with the same man who wanted to fire you?
Billionaire Sawyer Drake made it abundantly obvious he didn't want an assistant. Traumatized by a fatal accident, he stayed to himself, shunned human contact, and would rather die than open up to another person-much less a beautiful college woman. His inner wounds ran deeper than the scars on his face.
When Ivy Wolfe ran away to Alabama to nurse a broken heart, the last thing she expected was to fall in love again. She needed a job to support her college expenses, and even though the salary for an assistant position in the home of a billionaire appeared too good to be true, she ignored the red flags and charged ahead.
With insecurities of her own to overcome, she found working for a self-absorbed recluse much harder than she anticipated. Determined to get through to Sawyer, Ivy wrote a letter that would change the course of their relationship.
But finding love with Sawyer was like playing with fire. Would she regret the day she hired on as his assistant? Or would she find the love of her life?
The cliche in love stories is that the good girl falls for the bad boy who smells of leather and exhaust from his motorcycle, and at the end of the day love conquers all.
The stories make it seem so easy. Life, on the other hand, makes it hard. The awful truth is: sometimes love leaves you in ruins.
Elias Black may have had a sleeve of tattoos and grown up on the wrong side of the tracks, but he didn't have a true bad bone in his body. I loved him from the moment he kissed me, when I knew I no longer owned my heart, until the world pulled us apart.
And then I wanted nothing more than to unlove him, and he wanted nothing more than to unlove me.
I was just a girl who fell in love with a boy who fell in love with me until . . .
