A simmering supernatural romance set in the crumbling Italian city of Castello, where mafia clans make the rules, dark magic pulses the streets and the sins of the past threaten to consume the present. . . As seen on TikTok..... Perfect for lovers of Chloe Gong, Renée Ahdieh and V.E. Schwab When sixteen-year-old Lilly arrives in Castello, she isn't impressed. A secluded town in the Italian mountains is not where she saw her last years of high school playing out. Divided for generations by a brutal clan-family war, the two halves of Castello are kept from destroying each other by the mysterious General, a leader determined to maintain order and 'purity'. . . whatever the cost. Lilly falls in with the rebellious Liza, brooding Nico and sensitive Christian, and sparks begin to fly. But in a city where love can lead to ruin, Lilly isn't sure she can trust anyone -- not even herself. And then she accidentally breaks Castello's most important rule: when the General's men come to test your blood, you'd better not be anything more than human... "Startlingly original . . . Readers will be lured in to this tumultuous world of warring families, forbidden power, and heart-searing romance." - Lyndall Clipstone, author of Lakesedge and Forestfall

A new treasure unearthed by Némirovsky’s biographers: another never-before-published novel from the author of the #1 bestselling Suite Française. This perfect gem of a novel was discovered only recently in separate archive files. A few pages were in the famous suitcase that Irène Némirovsky’s daughters saved, but the balance had been deposited with a very close friend during the war. A morality tale with doubtful morals, a story of murder, love and betrayal in rural France, Fire in the Blood, planned in 1937 and written in 1941, is set in a small village (based on Issy l’Evèque, where Suite Française was written), and brilliantly prefigures the village community in her later masterpiece. Fire in the Blood is a beautiful chamber piece which starts quietly, lyrically, but then races away with revelations and narrative twists in a story about young women forced into marriages with old men, about mothers and daughters, stepmothers and stepdaughters, youthful passions and the regrets of old age, about peasant communities and the ways they hide their secrets. Némirovsky looks at her characters, both young and old, with the same clear-eyed distance and humanity as she displayed in Suite Française, unpeeling layer after layer. As atmospheric and haunting as Sándor Márai’s Embers, and with the crystalline perfection of Chekhov, Fire in the Blood is another gripping literary find.

Hannah is a Christian who documents her life as an abused wife who discovered that she has been demonized due to the misdeeds of her parents. After attending a Pentecostal church deliverance ministry, she discovers that her parents' part in the occult practice of Obeah had led to her suffering from a generational curse causing a harsh and negative impact on her life. The story documents real life drama as the writer tells of her encounter with the Pastor at the deliverance ministry which led to years of research and digging deeper into the spirit realm. Hannah narrates her painful and humiliating struggles whilst going through the deliverance process and how she learned to use the full arsenal of heavenly weaponry to receive and maintain her deliverance by keeping all the spiritual doors to Satan and his demons firmly closed.

If her Viking family are to escape annihilation, Sassa must venture through ice-wastes haunted by ravening tribesmen and blood-famished revenants, just to fulfil her arranged marriage to the depraved prince they call The Werewolf. And she must arrive chaste. But the sleep demons are out there, armed with all their powers to lure and seduce. Legend knows these demons feed off your soul. They come in your dreams; they draw out your darkest desires and make them come true. There never can be any escaping them. Sassa yearns for a warrior-life: the fighting, the feasting, and the carnal pleasures she’s denied being a princess who must remain pure for marriage. And now she’s off the leash, how can she fight off the seductions and ravishments? The warrior Aleks arrives as an unlikely ally. He needs her alive and free of the sleep demons. But he wants her too, for they share one of her deepest yearnings: to see her over his knee and her bare behind roasted by his open palm. The question remains: is he after her heart, her body, or her blood?

Victory over a believer's carnal nature by total surrender of the will and that restores a covenant relationship with God. The cross is the only way to victory.

A vivid and moving portrait of America's farm families Farming is essential to the American economy and our daily lives, yet few of us have much contact with farmers except through the food we eat. Who are America's farmers? Why is farming important to them? How are they coping with dramatic changes to their way of life? In the Blood paints a vivid and moving portrait of America’s farm families, shedding new light on their beliefs, values, and complicated relationship with the land. Drawing on more than two hundred in-depth interviews, Robert Wuthnow presents farmers in their own voices as they speak candidly about their family traditions, aspirations for their children, business arrangements, and conflicts with family members. They describe their changing relationships with neighbors, their shifting views about religion, and the subtle ways they defend their personal independence. Wuthnow shares the stories of farmers who operate dairies, raise livestock, and grow our fruit and vegetables. We hear from corn and soybean farmers, wheat-belt farmers, and cotton growers. We gain new insights into how farmers assign meaning to the land, and how they grapple with the increasingly difficult challenges of biotechnology and global markets. In the Blood reveals how, despite profound changes in modern agriculture, farming remains an enduring commitment that runs deeply in the veins of today’s farm families.

This book covers the blood of Jesus Christ from the very beginning of creation. It shows that the entire Bible is about Jesus Christ and his blood that purchased man's redemption. The reader will not only be introduced to important aspects of the significance of His blood but also to the significance of the very lineage from which He came. The summation of these facts is that contrary to how it may often seem, there is still Power in the Blood of Jesus. Reverend Rudolph K. Roberts has dedicated his life to the work of the Lord.
