Book Description
"James has initiated Bianca into a dark and drugging world of passion and pain. He taught her about her own submissive, masochistic nature, and she fell swiftly and deeply in love with the undeniably charming and impossibly beautiful Mr. Cavendish, but a painful misunderstanding and the return of the brutally violent demons of her past have combined to overwhelm Bianca, and, confused and hurt she pushes him away"--P. [4] of cover.
Eight Mile High
Author: Jim Ray Daniels
Publisher: MSU Press
ISBN: 1628950277
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 262
Book Description
In these linked stories, the constants are the places—from Eight Mile High, the local high school, to Eight Miles High, the local bar; from The Clock, a restaurant that never closes, to Stan’s, a store that sells misfit clothes. Daniels’s characters wander Detroit, a world of concrete, where even a small strip of greenery becomes a hideout for mystery and mayhem. Even when they leave town—to Scout camp, or Washington, DC, or the mythical Up North, they take with them their hardscrabble working-class sensibilities and their determination to do what they must do to get by. With a survival instinct that includes a healthy dose of humor, Daniels’s characters navigate work and love, change and loss, the best they can. These characters don’t have the luxury of feeling sorry for themselves, even when they stumble. They dust themselves off and head back into the ring with another rope-a-dope wisecrack. These stories seem to suggest that we are always coming of age, becoming, trying to figure out what it means to be an adult in this world, attempting to figure out a way to forgive ourselves for not measuring up to our own expectations of what it means to lead a successful, happy life.

Book Description
First published by Mountain Press in 1970 and in print nearly continuously through several editions by different publishers, Mile High Mile Deep is once again available through Mountain Press. Part memoir, part novel, Richard Kilroy O�Malley�s compelling coming-of-age story captures life in Butte in the 1920s, when the city was a lusty, two-fisted copper camp. Written with sensitivity and feeling, this wonderful book brings to life the Irish, Scandinavians, Slavs, Cornishmen, Syrians, Greeks, Finns, and Italians who scratched a living in the boisterous mining city. First as observers and then as participants, Dick and his friend Frank see and feel the stark power of the mines�a mile high in the blue sky of Montana, but a mile deep, too, in the sweat and gloom of the underground shafts that trapped and destroyed.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 280
Book Description
FBI Agent Logan Reed specializes in explosives. He can track and defuse almost any incendiary device... Except for the one buried deep inside his soul. Home from Afghanistan now for two years, Logan has secured the perfect assignment on the FBI-K9 Bomb Squad in Denver. His new partner, a Belgian Malinois named Gunner, is an expertly trained bomb-sniffing dog. He's everything a handler could hope for, except he's not Lobo. Agent Addison Thorne, a Bomb Technician at the top of her game, doesn't trust the new guy. He's too quiet and never goes out with the crew for a beer after work. There's just something about him that makes her nervous, and nerves aren't what a bomb-tech likes to feel. Tasked with finding a bomber on the loose in the Mile-High city, the explosives team must discover who is planting the devices and why before the civilian casualties skyrocket. Will they find all the bombs before panic ensues and they are forced to evacuate the capital? When Reed finds himself in a situation mirroring his painful past, he freezes up. Will Thorne be able to snap him back to the present before it's too late? Can he hold it together or will he fail once again? Either way, his own life and that of Thorne and Gunner could come to a fiery end.
