“An absorbing, generous, ravishing book by a high priestess of you-have-to-read-this prose." —Cheryl Strayed, author of Wild Pam Houston, an "early master of the art of rendering fiercely independent, brilliant women in love with the wrong men" (Sarah Norris, Barnes & Noble Review), delivers a novel that whisks us from one breathtaking precipice to the next. Along the way, we unravel the story of Pam (a character not unlike the author), a fearless traveler aiming to leave her metaphorical baggage behind as she seeks a comfort zone in the air. With the help of a loyal cast of friends, body workers, and a new partner who helps her to be at home, she finally finds something like ground under her feet.

Something Shifted is a nonfiction, inspiring Christian book that acts as a tapestry of different threads brilliantly woven together: first, the thread of author and doctor Peter Osterbauer's life, which went from frequenting strip clubs, to joining an occult order, to having a drinking problem, having an affair, to attempting suicide, all while masking his inner struggles with a successful career in neurology. The second thread is the thread of teaching, from the author's own experience, what it means to shift-that is, crossing that line consciously, going from "maybe" to "yes." This book will teach readers what it means to be forgiven, what it means to be redeemed, what it means to become a new creation in Christ, and learn to shift from shame to grace.

Jared Stone is a freaking wolf. And I don't mean that metaphorically, either... I thought I had it bad-living in my dead Dad's old hunting blind in the woods, barely staying alive on apples and ramen...that was before the storm hit and destroyed the only form of shelter I had left. Enter, Jared. The hottest-and most unavailable-guy at school. Except he wasn't Jared when he pulled me out of the mud. He wasn't even human. As if that wasn't unsettling enough, when he brought me back to his cabin, I found he wasn't alone. Another guy, one I'd only ever heard about in whispers beneath the bleachers, was there too. Clayton Armstrong: bad boy extraordinaire. And it turned out, he wasn't human either. Mindf*ck, right? At first, all I want to do is run away. But I have nowhere to go, and for whatever messed up reason, Jared is insistent that I stay. Despite Clay's loud protests. So, now I'm stuck in a cabin in the woods with two hot as hell wolf shifters. One who wants to protect me. And another who wants to eat me for lunch...

In 2007, the Center for Automation in Nanobiotech (CAN) outlined the hardware and software platform that would one day allow robots smaller than human cells to make medical diagnoses, conduct repairs, and even self-propagate. In the same year, the CBS network re-aired a program about the effects of propranolol on sufferers of extreme trauma. A simple pill, it had been discovered, could wipe out the memory of any traumatic event. At almost the same moment in humanity's broad history, mankind had discovered the means for bringing about its utter downfall. And the ability to forget it ever happened. This is the sequel to the New York Times best-selling Wool series.

Jared "Mac" MacKenzie is used to making tough decisions as the President of the Silver Saints MC. When a member of a rival MC puts one of his brothers in a coma, he'll do whatever it takes to get answers-including kidnapping Bridget Pierce, their president's daughter.

An Urban Fantasy Romance novel A telepath with a lethal twist. My name is Neely and I live among shapeshifters in the desert truckstop town of Sundance, California. As a wolf shifter, I'm not much of a threat. But as a telepath-spiker, I'm deadly. For six months, life has been peaceful. Business at my panaderia is holding steady, alpha leader Lucas Blacke and I are in a devoted relationship, and the kidnapping attempts have slowed to a crawl. I'm finally part of something bigger than myself-the Blacke shifter group. I haven't exactly come to terms with my wolf shifter side, but I'm getting there. When a dangerous group from my past makes an unexpected appearance in Sundance, I know my hard-won peace is coming to an end. The malicious shifter faction I fought against in Texas has spent the last few months planning a rebellion. They're gearing up for war with paranormals and humans alike, and they're bringing the first battle to Sundance. It's kill or be killed, and we're not going down without a fight. For readers who enjoy urban fantasy with a side order of romance, fast-paced action, and a dash of humor.

An updated edition of a standard in its field that remains relevant more than thirty years after its original publication. Over thirty years ago, sociologist and University of California, Berkeley professor Arlie Hochschild set off a tidal wave of conversation and controversy with her bestselling book, The Second Shift. Hochschild's examination of life in dual-career housholds finds that, factoring in paid work, child care, and housework, working mothers put in one month of labor more than their spouses do every year. Updated for a workforce that is now half female, this edition cites a range of updated studies and statistics, with an afterword from Hochschild that addresses how far working mothers have come since the book's first publication, and how much farther we all still must go.
