Colton. The only boy to steal my heart and soul. Then he handed it back to me with missing pieces, and I never heard from him again. That was ten years ago, and now I'm running from a man who took a vow to protect me but instead left scars across my mind and body. They say you won't understand love until you're older. But I knew more love at 17 than I do now at 27. Because love shouldn't hurt you. It shouldn't almost destroy you. Love shouldn't break vows. .... Ashley. The only girl I ever gave my heart to. I planned on marrying her. That is, until I screwed up and made a decision at 17 that put us on a cataclysmic path of destruction. Now, I'm trying to chase away the demons of my past and survive the days atoning for my sins. Until I see her again. Everything I thought I did right ten years ago, comes back to haunt me in the hazel eyes of the only girl I loved.
Dea Donahue has been able to travel through people's dreams since she was six years old. Her mother taught her the three rules of walking: Never interfere. Never be seen. Never walk the same person's dream more than once. Dea has never questioned her mother, not about the rules, not about the clocks or the mirrors, not about moving from place to place to be one step ahead of the unseen monsters that Dea's mother is certain are right behind them. Then a mysterious new boy, Connor, comes to town and Dea finally starts to feel normal. As Connor breaks down the walls that she's had up for so long, he gets closer to learning her secret. For the first time she wonders if that's so bad. But when Dea breaks the rules, the boundary between worlds begins to deteriorate. How can she know what's real and what's not?
One false move and I'm locked out of Hell...Hey there. I'm Lucia. Queen of the Underworld. Ruling over demons and souls for countless millennia has left me... a little bored and restless. I've been dreaming of a trip around Earth, a chance to experience some of the delicacies the souls all talk about. You know.

A girl locked away for eternity needs to be able to experience at least one earth-shattering "O".Too bad my escape plan ends up locking me and the four Princes of Hell on the wrong side of the door. Now we're all cast out of Hell and none of us know how to reopen the portal to return home. It wouldn't be too bad if I didn't have four sexy as sin Princes blaming me for it. Working alongside them to figure out the backdoor into Hell is literal torture... and not necessarily of the bad kind. How was I supposed to know once the Devil escapes she can't go back?This is a Paranormal Reverse Harem story that contains content for 18 or older.
This is the phenomenal true story of the world-renowned psychic medium George Anderson—the groundbreaking book that first brought afterlife experience into the light. For over 12 years Joel Martin documented evidence of Anderson's powers—the ability to reach 'the other side'—and repeatedly astonished believers and skeptics. This is the book of those universal visions, the inspiring messages of hope, truth, and peace, and a glimpse into eternity to answers to the unfathomable questions about life and death.
Albert is a duck-billed platypus, who has escaped from a zoo in Adelaide to look for somewhere that may, or may not, exist: Old Australia, a place where humans never venture, and animals still rule. Albert knows it's somewhere in the middle of the Outback - not the ideal habitat for a water-loving animal - but now he's lost and close to death. He's saved, though, by Jack, a pyromaniac, sardine-loving wombat, who promptly gets him into even worse trouble taking him to a marsupial-only bar run by a kangaroo called O'Hanlin, getting him drunk and then burning the bar down. And this is just the beginning of Albert's adventure ... A glorious romp of a novel, Albert of Adelaide is a story of friendship, loyalty and heroism. And marsupials. Pacy and poignant, it's completely original -- a book for people (and animals) of all ages.
