Life as she knows it, came crashing down in mere seconds. A horrific crime, a tragic accident, and an assumed alias. Can Kendall come to grips with the past or will she allow it to control her life forever? Kendall lives in a prison of her own making. Living one day at a time with each day mimicking the day before. The world beyond her 4 walls continues to flourish without her, until a delivery mistake brings an unwanted intruder into her life. John brings balance to Kendall’s life and challenges her to push her limits daily. He fights his own internal battle, allowing her to do what she can, while working to protect her from the unknown man that continues to follow them. If you like emotional heroines, slow burn relationships, and real-to-life drama, you will rave over Haley Rhoades Uncaged, 7 Deadly Sins: Sloth. When lust meets fate the 7 deadly Sins await.

The only deadly sin that is not a sin of commission. Sloth, or laziness, is not something we do; rather, it’s NOT doing something we should that makes it so sinful. The Latin words “tristitia” or “acedia” mean “without care.” When we stop caring, things go wrong. How come laziness is so destructive, especially when we are not actually doing something wrong? What does the Bible say about sloth? Is it even mentioned there? Is there such a thing as “good laziness?” What modern-age faces of sloth do we get confronted with? How do we avoid becoming lazy, especially when it has become easier to give up and miss out on life? In holy writ, life is sometimes referred to as a spiritual war. This analogy can have a lasting effect on our attitude. When we look at it this way, we must figure out how to become a better soldier for the right cause, and to actively get engaged in good projects and activities that make the world a better place. This is exactly the kind of thinking you will read about when you pick up this book. It will help you avoid excuses, see the sin of sloth for what it really is, and motivate you to become a better person.

Presents a number of tales of the unreal and the supernatural, including "The Sentinels," "The Second Staircase," and "Made in Goatswood"

Seagrasses are unique plants; the only group of flowering plants to recolonise the sea. They occur on every continental margin, except Antarctica, and form ecosystems which have important roles in fisheries, fish nursery grounds, prawn fisheries, habitat diversity and sediment stabilisation. Over the last two decades there has been an explosion of research and information on all aspects of seagrass biology. However the compilation of all this work into one book has not been attempted previously. In this book experts in 26 areas of seagrass biology present their work in chapters which are state-of–the-art and designed to be useful to students and researchers alike. The book not only focuses on what has been discovered but what exciting areas are left to discover. The book is divided into sections on taxonomy, anatomy, reproduction, ecology, physiology, fisheries, management, conservation and landscape ecology. It is destined to become the chosen text on seagrasses for any marine biology course.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “A fascinating look at how consumers perceive logos, ads, commercials, brands, and products.”—Time How much do we know about why we buy? What truly influences our decisions in today’s message-cluttered world? In Buyology, Martin Lindstrom presents the astonishing findings from his groundbreaking three-year, seven-million-dollar neuromarketing study—a cutting-edge experiment that peered inside the brains of 2,000 volunteers from all around the world as they encountered various ads, logos, commercials, brands, and products. His startling results shatter much of what we have long believed about what captures our interest—and drives us to buy. Among the questions he explores: • Does sex actually sell? • Does subliminal advertising still surround us? • Can “cool” brands trigger our mating instincts? • Can our other senses—smell, touch, and sound—be aroused when we see a product? Buyology is a fascinating and shocking journey into the mind of today's consumer that will captivate anyone who's been seduced—or turned off—by marketers' relentless attempts to win our loyalty, our money, and our minds.
