School teacher, Anna O 'Riley's melancholy Sunday abruptly changes with a knock on her door from an Austin Police Officer. She's even more startled to learn that she is a person of interest in a brutal homicide that occurred at the downtown Cathedral that she has been an active member of for almost twenty years. Her summer vacation from school takes her from Cozumel to San Miguel De Allende and back to Austin all in a vain attempt to solve the mystery surrounding the death of her fiancé and the whereabouts of his autistic child. Betrayal and lies confront her at every turn. But through peril and love she eventually discovers her own oasis of truth.
They say monotony is the enemy of monogamy. Mike Rivers was a self-confessed geek and there was nothing monotonous about his life after he met her. He was a computer nerd who knew nothing about women or much about life away from his keyboard. Then he met Bunny and thus began his lessons about women and about sex and about love. Three things of which he had zero knowledge. Mike innocently entered into a world he had only read and dreamed about. A world of sex, sex and more sex. Bunny told him there was a vast difference between love and fucking and that he shouldn't confuse the two. Luckily he was a quick study and Bunny was a patient teacher. Mike tell the story of how he entered into a family of hedonists and came to love it and Bunny's odd family. Mike listened intently as Bunny tells him about her life before they met. This is a shooter's yarn so of course there is interracial sex. There is plenty of one on one, two on one and more on one. There is also some girl on girl sex.
This book presents the method developed by Dr. Silvia Helena Koller and her students and collaborators to apply Urie Bronfenbrenner’s Bioecological Theory of Human Development to empirical studies with children and adolescents.

Karen Idlewild had two young sons. One died in a fire, the other, Jonah, survived in unusual circumstances. On a visit to Paris, and against the instinctive warnings of her father, Karen takes Jonah on a bizarre quest to meet Samuel Beckett, a writer whose philosophy she admires, and who, she is sure, can explain her tragedy in terms she can accept. To meet the famous man is no easy mission, as he is vigorously protected from such people by his wife, Suzanne, and others. Ultimately, it is the 9 year old Jonah, bold and unaccompanied, who finally urges the reluctant, ailing old Beckett to speak.
