I know what it's like growing up in a house like that. I had to do some things I'm not proud of. But it was all for her. I would do anything to protect her. But then we had to go our own ways, and I ended up taking part in underground MMA fights to live while on the run from the cops. She's back in town. It's been a few years since I've seen Brooklyn. I want her so bad. I wonder if she feels the same, after all this time? I still haven't told her my deadly secret.

I've never liked the motorcycle club, but one of its members might just be the man that saves me. Lauren… I didn’t care that he was the sexiest man I’d ever seen. I didn’t care that I’d wanted him since I was old enough to know what desire felt like. I was a good girl, and I’d be damned if I fell for him. He was big and rough and hard and I didn't want any of that...That was before the El Diablo Rojas kidnapped me. Now all I can hope is that Jacob finds me before they make good on their threats.

I accepted the contract even though I knew the subject of the hit. Years had passed and I no longer cared about anything - except for the money that would find its way into my bank account. The crosshairs settled on her body - a body I once knew intimately - and I felt nothing. I took up the slack on the trigger. Memories counted as nothing, as less than nothing. Three steps to the mark, two steps, one step.... And then the world turned upside down.

This book contains a brief but unconventional look at the Titans and Olympian gods of Greek mythology. Brief, because a thorough treatment of these legendary super beings could take thousands of hours. Unconventional, because digging for truth is far more interesting than reciting old stories which have little relevance to us today. Attempting to reveal some semblance of truth brings the stories to life. It gives them relevance to our modern world. Here, we will look at many of the more fascinating stories.

Power has an appearance and appearance has power. Ideally those two would line up together and the world would be full of good, masculine men who dress and look like good masculine men. But all too often, reality is something different. There are good men and strong leaders out there who dress and look like children or bums. There are awful, lazy men in the world who dress in a way that hides their vices from those around them and makes them appear better than they truly are. In an attempt to correct for these disparities, our current culture tries to rob both appearance of its power and power of its appearance - to say that the way a person dresses or looks doesn’t - or at least shouldn’t matter.

Stoicism, one of the oldest Western philosophical schools, has enchanted scholars and the general public alike for over 2,000 years. Where some accounts of human nature and the particularly human good fall short by the reduction of human being to physical or psychical phenomena, Stoicism's power lies in engaging with the whole range of human experience, addressing rationality, emotion, piety, will, and both inner and outer impressions, each on their own terms, in language that treats each as significant in its own right.
