She's been the victim and the survivor. Poppy never dreamed she would find the love she's found with Prince Casteel. She wants to revel in her happiness but first they must free his brother and find hers. It's a dangerous mission and one with far-reaching consequences neither dreamed of. Because Poppy is the Chosen, the Blessed. The true ruler of Atlantia. She carries the blood of the King of Gods within her. By right the crown and the kingdom are hers. The enemy and the warrior. Poppy has only ever wanted to control her own life, not the lives of others, but now she must choose to either forsake her birthright or seize the gilded crown and become the Queen of Flesh and Fire. But as the kingdoms' dark sins and blood-drenched secrets finally unravel, a long-forgotten power rises to pose a genuine threat. And they will stop at nothing to ensure that the crown never sits upon Poppy's head. A lover and heartmate. But the greatest threat to them and to Atlantia is wh...

The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity AND Giving Makes You Rich - Special Edition by Catherine Ponder (2 books in 1) The Dynamic Laws of Prosperity This book is the result of several recent recessions and many years of lean living. Nobody likes recessions and nobody likes lean living - and indeed nobody should like them. For fifteen years I tried to find such a book as this one. During those years of searching the bookshelves, I found that there are many books which give various ideas, but in none of them did I find a set of compact, simple laws for assuring success. I began searching for a book such as this after having been widowed and left with a small son to rear and educate. Since I had no training for work and no means of income, I would have given anything to have known then about the power of prosperous thinking. For a while I experienced depression, ill health, loneliness, financial lack and a sense of complete failure. It seemed that the whole world was against me, and that everythi...

This illustrated story explains a day in the life of Jet, a hired assassin. It's amazing just the power of one plant to influence so many events in so many different ways. Well, in this case, it just happens to be a cactus at the center of it all. Jet takes twists and turns throughout the humorous story, as there is nonstop action and humor interspersed from the beginning to the end of this clever tale. You will laugh out loud at the writing, and you will also be intrigued with the colorful visual display which you will relate to the story in your own way. The artwork in this book starts with a simple photo of a cactus houseplant. Each page shows another step in the photo manipulation process to display a deconstruction, of sorts. It's cool watching how the images develop throughout and affect what you take from the story. The images aren't entirely intended to go along with the story, but as the story unfolds, so do the images, which only adds to the humor. This is a coo...

He woke up the next morning with one hell of a hangover, a raging headache ... and a pair of horns growing from his temples. Once, Ig lived the life of the blessed: born into privilege, the second son of a renowned American musician, and the younger brother of a rising late-night TV star, Ig had security and wealth and a place in his community. Ig had it all, and more - he had the love of Merrin Williams, a love founded on shared daydreams, mutual daring, and unlikely midsummer magic. Then beautiful, vivacious Merrin was gone - raped and murdered, under inexplicable circumstances - with Ig the only suspect. He was never tried for the crime, but in the court of public opinion, Ig was and always would be guilty.
