Sinossi

A demon escaped from Hell. A lovely virginal nun. An apprentice succubus and her teacher, sworn to hunt down and kill those who would prey on mankind. Bound by fate, they will all be thrown together. Love, desire, sin and forgiveness entwine in the tale of "Hell's Horny Angels!"
 
~~~~~ PG Excerpt ~~~~~ 
 
~Look,~ a voice whispered, seemingly from nowhere. ~A weapon.~
 
Kathleen’s eyes flicked to her right, on her clear side. A long-handled push-broom leaned against the wall. Slowly, so as not to draw attention to herself, she reached out her hand. Shaking fingers began to unscrew the handle from the base.
 
“So,” Juwan sneered. “Do you come with me, Desirée? Or do I start dishing out some payback?”
 
The handle came loose. The long staff of wood felt…natural in her hand.
 
With a snarl, Kathleen shook her arm loose from Desirée and vaulted over the desk. Swinging the broom-handle like a quarterstaff, she smacked one end against the pimple-spotted temple of one of Juwan’s cronies before he had time to react. The young man blinked once and sagged to the ground, senseless.
 
“What the hell?” A second man came forward, a knife appearing in his hand. “Put it down, bitch. Or I cut you.”
 
Kathleen snickered. “Never trust a man who brings a knife to a broom fight.” She faked once at his belly, then at his face. When he flinched back, she jabbed the butt end of the broom into his larynx. A gurgling croak emerged from his mouth, and he sank to the ground, fighting for breath.
 
Before the slack-jawed Juwan had a chance to move, she was on him, whirling like a dervish. A swing of her staff behind his knees toppled him to the floor. When he pushed himself up, raising the gun to point it at her face, she swung the staff like a mace, striking his wrist and arm again and again. The broom handle splintered, unable to withstand the fury of her blows, but she continued, screaming in rage, until she heard the sweet crack of breaking bone and the gun fell from his spasming fingers.
 
“Ah-ah!” she warned, kicking the gun aside as Juwan pushed himself to his feet. The splintered end of the broom pointed at his belly. “Don’t move,” she whispered, her voice deadly. “Don’t you move one single solitary damned muscle, or I’ll gut you like a fish and let you bleed to death on the floor.
 
“Now,” she continued, striving for calm, though her body was shaking in a combination of adrenaline and exhilaration. “This is what’s going to happen. In a few minutes, the police are going to arrive, because I’m sure someone has already called nine-one-one. Haven’t they?” she added, her eyes sweeping the room. Half a dozen hands rose. “Right. And you’re going to tell the truth to the nice policemen. And then they’re going to take you away.”
 
Her voice dropped. “And you will never, ever, bother anyone on these streets again, Juwan. You, or anyone who looks up to you. If I hear one rumor, one whisper that you are making a nuisance of yourself, mothers will frighten children with the stories of your fate. Do you understand me?”
 
“You bitch. You-”
 
Her hands flickered, and a scarlet line appeared on Juwan’s left cheekbone, dripping blood into his beard. “Do you understand me?” she repeated,
 
His good hand clenched. “You’re nothing. I’ll-”
 
Another flicker, and a matching gash opened on Juwan’s right cheekbone. “Now you’ve got a matching set,” she said cheerfully. She lowered the point of the broom-handle until it was resting in the hollow of the young fool’s throat. She tilted her head as he swallowed. “Do you have anything else to say?” she asked sweetly. “Or do you try to breathe around this?” Very delicately, she dug the point into his skin.

    A hopeful memoir about adapting when life doesn't go to plan, redefining family, and creating your own path. 
     
     
     
    One afternoon, Emma Nadler gets a call from her daughter's doctor that changes her life forever. Faced with the realities of raising a child with a rare genetic condition, Nadler must confront her preconceptions of motherhood and her perfectionistic beliefs. 
     
     
     
    Nadler—who also happens to be a psychotherapist—offers a rare window into the unconventional ways she and her family adapt to their improbable path. Every relationship in her life—with herself, her husband, children, friends, and even clients—is reimagined as she navigates the heartbreak and hilarity of her daily life. 
     
     
     
    As she and her husband join the 53 million caregivers in the US, Nadler wrestles to belong in a society that devalues both caregivers and people with disabilities. She challenges the scripts that mothers should be martyrs, or that self-sacrifice is a necessary component of love. Nadler illustrates the complexity, grief, and joy of living an unexpected life, all with the wisdom of a therapist, the heart of a loving parent, and the ingenuity of a queer woman who refuses to be shackled by cultural expectations.

    We are sometimes our own worst enemies, sabotaging our success and with it our chance for lasting happiness and opportunities for personal and professional fulfillment. It's Not Your Fault helps listeners uncover the subconscious reasons they hold themselves back. These blind spots were often created in childhood as coping mechanisms in response to trauma. Rather than teaching tactics that ignore or give surface attention to adverse childhood events, the book lovingly guides listeners to explore the ways these events have impacted their lives and how this knowledge will help them access true transformation. 
     
     
     
    Those who have been let down by traditional therapeutic techniques know that behavior modification doesn't work for everyone. Simply doing things differently while staying the same on the inside might help for the short term, but before long old patterns emerge. Once they decide to get serious about change, however, and stop tweaking habits in the hope it will result in lasting transformation, they can create a life by design instead of default. It takes work, an internal excavation, and Laura comes alongside the listener as a trusted guide who has been where they are now. She provides the tools and anecdotal evidence to show them how to overcome the pain of self-sabotage and create the life they desire.

    Madison & Adams Press presents the Civil War Memories Series. This meticulous selection of the firsthand accounts, memoirs and diaries is specially comprised for Civil War enthusiasts and all people curious about the personal accounts and true life stories of the unknown soldiers, the well known commanders, politicians, nurses and civilians amidst the war. 
    Detailed Minutiae of Soldier Life in the Army of Northern Virginia is not a classical memoir work from the Civil War. Author did not want to write exclusively about his experience in the war, even though he drew on his time in the army for several chapters. Instead, he wanted to underscore the importance of common Confederate soldiers within Lost Cause memory.The Lost Cause of the Confederacy is an ideological assertion made by many Confederate veterans which claimed that the cause of the Confederate States during the American Civil War was just, heroic, and not centered on slavery.

    The only goal Prince Syrius Fortune of Rosenhip had during his twin sister's "meet the suitors" ball, was to stay quiet and out of the way. His sister's event had been in the planning for five years, and he and his loving father had already agreed trying to seek a wedding contract for himself was not a good idea. Prince Syrius had quirks, and it wasn't as though he needed to open himself up to ridicule from someone else, especially a spouse he would have to get to know. The event was only a week, and being a lot smaller than his older brothers, Syrius was used to not being seen. Until someone saw him. 
    King Mintyn of Marinkaw had been a soldier since he was fifteen years old. He was not impressed to find out the one time of the year he was supposed to be meeting King Fortune to sign their Golden Straits agreement was apparently the one time his friend decided to have a huge event going on.  
    However, his aide told him he had been invited, and it was only one ball. Mintyn could enjoy some good food, network a while, and then leave the following morning once the treaty was signed. That was until he saw a young vision being hassled by an entitled duke. On learning the vision being hassled was his friend's youngest son, Mintyn decided to intervene. It was a nice thing to do. One shortened dance later as Prince Syrius walked away from him after he put his foot in his mouth, Mintyn told his aide to rejiggle his schedule. He had a spouse to woo.   
    This is one of those light stories that my muse weaves sometimes simply to make people smile. There are no deep and meaningful plot lines, just a bit fun between two men who look so unsuited for each other on the surface of things, but their pairing proves opposites do attract and stay together. It is in the same universe as the Infidelity Clause but is totally standalone. Watch for cameo appearances by a cupcake eating dragon, an episode of prince throwing, and potato cuffs.

    An extraordinary memoir of Communist China, the Cultural Revolution, and a yearning to be free 
     
    When Kent Wong was a young boy, his father, a patriotic Chinese official in the customs office in Hong Kong, joined an insurrection at work, allowing the family to return to the newly established People’s Republic of China. Hailed as heroes, they settled in the southern city of Canton. But Chairman Mao’s China was dangerous and unstable, with landlords executed en masse and millions dying of starvation during the Great Leap Forward. 
     
    In Swimming to Freedom, Kent Wong captures his childhood amidst revolutionary times, where boyish adventures and school days mixed with dire poverty and political persecution. Mao’s Hundred Flower Campaign had ensnared Kent’s father. A decade later, the Cultural Revolution closed schools, plunged the country into chaos, and scattered Kent and his sisters to disparate villages, where they struggled to eke out a bare existence. As the son of a “capitalist rightist,” Kent began to realize that with higher education closed to him, he had no future in China. So when he hooked up with a dissident underground and heard about fellow countrymen, known as “Freedom Swimmers,” braving great hardship to reach freedom by swimming across miles of open water to Hong Kong, he decided to join them, risking his life for a better future. A gripping, heart-rending journey, this memoir is a moving testament to the human spirit.
