Ryder "Playboy" King is what everyone calls me, in and out of the octagon. I'm fine with being known as a Playboy. I've turned it into an art form. A big smile, charm, and a little flattery - and my needs are easily met. Besides, giving a shit can get a man hurt - I'd rather get in and out in one piece. Enter Tessa Jameson. One fiery lust filled moment with her, is not enough. If anything, it leaves me wanting more, but she's not interested. Me? I know I've met my match - I want more. She thinks men only want sex. I'm determined to prove her wrong. But it isn't easy. The closer I get, the more I want. Lust, is the act of taking. Love, is the act of giving. Can I continue to give and not take? Can two bruised people long committed to a lust filled life be willing to change - to love? Will lust just be another beatable opponent? I think so. Until I'm knocked to my knees with a blow I never see coming.

Some girls like to throw caution into the wind, let fate take them where she wants them to be. But not Pyper Lexington. She's all about the plan. Graduate college and own a successful business have been marked off the list. All that's left of her perfect little plan is marrying a man equal to her father in success and wealth. And of course, adding to that the 2.5 children and picket fence, every girl wants that-right? But fate has other ideas and like the old saying goes, 'the best-laid plans often go awry.' In walks Rixton Andrews, a cocky bartender with a sexy, southern drawl. He makes his intentions clear after a night they both can't forget. He wants Pyper - and he's determined to make her want him too. But can a man of Rixton's status convince a princess like Pyper that he's the man she's been waiting for and that love can't be planned? Will the secret Rixton's keeping tear them apart? Or will Pyper's need to please others make her deny what her heart really wants?

Born with an unusually long tail, Roo has endured years of relentless teasing and torment from his fellow kangaroo tribe, he knows his only option is to run away. There is nothing more Roo desires than the respect of his tribe. He decides the best way to prove his worth is to attempt to cross the Valley of the Winds, a place feared by all creatures of the Outback and for good reason. Here Roo must face the first, and one of the most frightening challeges he will face along the way...Wanambi (a giant and powerful snake). Roo's journey quickly turns into much more than he bargained for. What he thought would be a short journey to prove himself, turns into far more than he could have ever imagined. Wee Waa and The Outback Roo is a story of self acceptance, courage and everlasting friendship.

Some people get a tattoo - a piece of art that enhances or reveals something about them that they like. Other people, like me, are branded by something - actions or words. "No one will ever love you, Rowan, you're not worthy." Those are the words that created my blemish, my scar, my mark upon my soul. They were words whispered by the woman who should have loved me most. But in the darkest moment of my life, one where I stood abandoned and alone, one man proved to me that she was wrong. When I desperately needed someone, MMA fighter Jackson Stone crashed into my life. He wasn't the one who should have been there, but he was exactly the person I needed He believed that only fools live in the past. He showed me that a real relationship is full of dreams, faith, trust and passion.

He proved that the wrong man at the right moment can heal everything. *This book does NOT end in a cliffhanger. Due to language and sexual content recommended age is 18+

There are a lot of Bible study methods available online and in print but it isn't so easy to find a simple Bible study method that does not require extra materials and access to resources beyond your Bible. This Bible study method was born out of necessity - how to help someone with no background or preexisting knowledge of the Bible, study it in a meaningful way without access to additional resources and materials.When choosing a method for studying your Bible, your goal or motivation is important to consider. You can always read the Bible just to know what it says, which is often what happens when people tackle intense Bible-reading plans that require you to read multiple chapters a day. However, at some point in your faith journey, the goal should shift and be to go deeper than just "head knowledge" and, instead, chew on it and take it into yourself and digest it, like food.That is why this Bible study method is organized around the acrostic E.A.T. It is meant to encourage every believer to learn how to EAT their Bible because, as Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God." (Matthew 4:4)

?Do you know what it took for Socrates' enemies to make him stop pursuing the truth???Hemlock.?Storied, fiercely competitive Mariana Academy was founded with a serious honor code; its reputation has been unsullied for decades. Now a long-dormant secret society, Prisom's Party, threatens its placid halls with vigilante justice, exposing students and teachers alike for even the most minor infraction. Iris Dupont, a budding journalist whose only confidant is the chain-smoking specter of Edward R. Murrow, feels sure she can break into the ranks of The Devil's Advocate, the Party's underground newspaper, and there uncover the source of its blackmail schemes and vilifying rumors. Some involve the school's new science teacher, who also seems to be investigating the Party. Others point to an albino student who left school abruptly ten years before, never to return. And everything connects to a rare book called Marvelous Species. But the truth comes with its own dangers, and Iris is torn between her allegiances, her reporter's instinct, and her own troubled past. The Year of the Gadfly is an exhilarating journey of double-crosses, deeply buried secrets, and the lifelong reverberations of losing someone you love. Following in the tradition of classic school novels such as A Separate Peace, Prep, and The Secret History, it reminds us how these years haunt our lives forever.
