F*ck Steal Kill

F*ck Steal Kill

It's only a game... until someone gets hurt. In a town known for the macabre and bizarre, it didn't provide many options for women outside of marriage. Working as a maid in a themed hotel hadn't been my dream, but at least I got to do it with my two best friends-Lacey and Joy. To help with the boredom of living in a town with no future, we started a game.Select three people and cast them into their lots-to f*ck, steal from, or kill. At first, it was all hypothetical, but after an accidental murder, it became so much more.It became our escape. And with it, the birth of the XOXO killer and a way out of Foolshope for good.But when three gorgeous guys snagged my attention, it appeared our luck had finally run out. Someone was after us. It looked like we'd discovered another way out of this town after all-in a body bag.One thing was certain: we would be leaving this town-either as another foolish victim of hope or covered in the blood of our enemies.Go ahead, underestimate us, and see which list you end up on.XOXO

It was the curveball I never saw coming. The only thing worse than almost dying as a child... surviving. Now, hear me out. I was very much happy to be alive. It was the constant need to feel grateful for something I had no control over... that grated on me.I'd become so passive in my own life that when my boyfriend proposed, I couldn't remember what I liked about him outside of his dimple. I mean, it was cute. But enough to marry someone? Nah.I hadn't meant to be a runaway bride, but here I was, all dressed in white and escaping the baseball diamond like my life depended on it. Just a good old cleat retreat.Landing in my brother's best friend's car was a nice surprise. Spending the next twenty-four hours with him...even better. Maybe I could convince him to rid me of my pesky virginity once and for all. Besides, I knew the score, and he never played for keeps. He was the one who'd coined the term cleat retreat in the first place.A virginal bride and a grumpy, tatted baseball player sharing one bed. What could possibly go wrong?

Secrets. Hidden Pasts. Mistakes. I was tired of pretending I had it all together. I was ready to do whatever it took to redeem myself. I just hadn't expected them to be part of the equation. This beautiful omnibus contains: Stiletto SinsLipstick LiesBonus ContentAll new formatting in the paperbackStiletto Sins blurb (Book 1): These shoes were made for more than just walking.I didn't belong.Not with the things I'd done. Not with my past.To move forward, I needed to finish what I'd started all those years ago. I had to face him. My only barrier to the life I wanted was me, and it was time to face the sins of my youth instead of running.Except now, I had to run.My family wouldn't understand, and I knew this would hurt, but I was out of options. If I didn't do this now, I'd always be wondering, waiting for him to strike. It was time for me to strike first.So, I would be selfish just this once and find him, take him down, and make him pay.At one time, he'd been my salvation until he became my damnation. My sins were dark, my spirit broken, but I was no longer weak.It was time I remembered who I'd been. It was time I returned to Oblivion. This time, my stilettos wouldn't just be sinful. No, this time, they'd be deadly.

Is it better to swing and miss or never get up to bat? Growing up a baseball princess had taught me a few things: - One, the only truly scary thing about ball players was their superstitions.- Second, baseball always came first. It was their one true love.- And third, never take your eye off the ball, or you just might get pitch-slapped.The past three years I'd been licking my wounds in Greece after I ran away from my wedding, and somehow forgot all three.Too bad the baseball gods weren't as forgetful. Lured back home by my brother with the perfect job opportunity to photograph the YellowJackets baseball team, and I had no clue I'd step up to bat before even entering the stadium.And the pitches just kept coming.Strike one-a plane-night stand ghosting after being stranded in a storm.Strike two-a grumpy ex who coincidentally was my brother's best friend.Foul Ball-a mistaken text with two players saved me from striking out completely, especially when it turned into a sexy exploration.But there was no doubt I had a full count and only one swing away from striking out.My first mistake was taking my eye off the ball; the second was believing I'd ever come before baseball. But most grievous of all, learning that the scariest thing about ball players wasn't their superstitions...No, it was falling in love with them.

Message from the Author: Stories were the first form of journalism. They inspired my entry into journalism and study of literatures and travel through many lands. My father told us stories from his imagination every night as children growing up in the Caribbean. The story of Munnie and her world of travels began as I wrote for my Nephew, Saiesh, when he was only three years old. I found it difficult to convey the realities of many of the children's books available to stimulate his creativity and imagination from not one but multiple dimensions. His mom read the stories to him. He was its first critic. He grew into an avid reader. His enthusiastic reception and wish for more encouraged these Festival Fables. Over the last decade, these Munnie stories inspired other children in oral traditions of storytime, theatre workshops, and in my activities as an independent educator and journalist trying to stimulate interests in reading and cultural heritage in stimulating literary tributes and tours (LiTTributes & LiTTours) - our Reading Room Outside the Reading rooms, available on request in any city. The purpose is to integrate entertainment with education, nurturing curiosity while encouraging appreciation of diversity, respect, value and appreciation of others. I now move the stories from private to the public spheres to be available to all. I hope these encourage family activities with children, even while they integrate new technologies with multimedia animation, musical and dramatized versions.

Shores Beyond Shores: From Holocaust to Hope - A Bergen-Belsen Survivor's True Story

Irene Hasenberg Butter; John D Bidwell; Kris Holloway

pokkari
Irene Butter's memoir of her experiences before, during and after the Holocaust is not a recounting of misery and tragedy; rather it is the genuine story of a girl coming to terms with a terrible event and choosing to view herself as a survivor instead of a victim. When the Dutch police knock on their door, Irene and her family are forced to leave their home and board trains meant for cattle. They are taken to Nazi-controlled prison camps and finally to Bergen-Belsen, where Irene is a fellow prisoner with Anne Frank. With limited access to food, shelter, and warm clothing, Irene's family needs nothing short of a miracle to survive. Irene's memoir tells the story of her experiences as a young girl before, during, and after the Holocaust, highlighting how her family came to terms with the catastrophe and how she, over time, came to view herself as a survivor rather than a victim. Throughout the book, her first-person account celebrates the love and empathy that can persist even in the most inhumane conditions.

The story of Santa Claus is finally here In this rich novel, the remarkable story of Kris restores the hero of readers' youth in the compelling tale of a man who, amidst his greatest struggles, gave to others. This compelling tale will transport readers into the mind of Kris as he grows from tragic boyhood experiences into the inspiring man who brings joy every Christmas season. The plague-ridden Norwegian countryside lays the setting for Kris's unexpected beginnings where he is forced to find homes for his seven orphaned brothers and sisters. Driven by loyalty and feelings of failure, this first delivery launches Kris through his young life in search of redemption. He becomes apprenticed to a carpenter and meets an extraordinary girl who makes him a unique red jacket. But there are reindeer to discover and a people the Norwegians refer to as elves, not to mention chimneys and cookies and stockings hung by the fire. The world has heard many stories about Santa. Here, for the first time, is Santa's story.

Kris (1934) handlar om Malin Forst, Karin Boyes alter ego. Forst är ung och hängivet gudstroende, hon hamnar i en depression som hon tolkar religiöst. Hon upplever inte längre en gudsnärvaro. Forst blir förälskad i en kvinna för första gången, vilket dämpar hennes samvetskval och oro. Kris är ett modernistiskt formexperiment som varvar två olika typer av partier. I det ena får vi följa Malins inre liv och utveckling. I andra stycken är olika livshållningar representerade; läsaren når även kunskap om Forsts liv via insprängda prosadikter, citat ur brev och dagböcker... För de som tidigare endast stiftat bekantskap med Boyes poesipärlor utgör Kris en utmärkt introduktion till hennes prosa.

KARIN BOYE kom ut med denna sin tredje roman Kris 1934. Den är ett modernistiskt formexperiment. Hon kände ett inre tvång att skriva romanen och försöka förstå sig på sina egna inre kval. Malin Forst är ett alter ego i romanen. Boken kom ut tretton år efter de egentliga händelserna. Karin Boye hade tagit studenten och började på lärarseminariet. Under året, i sin sena tonårstid, drabbades hon av både fysiska och psykiska kval. Hon var djärv som satte sig upp mot olika auktoriteter. När det i Sverige fortfarande var olagligt med homosexualitet bejakade Malin Forst sin förälskelse i en studiekamrat. Och när hon var en av den kvinnliga rektorns favoritelever trotsade hon ändå henne, hon hävdade att psykologi var viktigare än kristendom. Uppgörelsen med den bokstavstrogna religionen eskalerade under seminarieåret. Extramaterialet i denna specialutgåva är två förord, det ena av LENNART KOSKINEN, före detta biskop på Gotland, och det andra av BIRGITTA HOLM, professor i litteraturvetenskap vid Uppsala universitet. Också brev och dikter av Karin Boye ingår, precis som funderingar författarkollegan HARRY MARTINSON hade om Karin Boyes livssituation. KARIN BOYE (1900-1941) tillhör våra klassiska författare, både med ofta citerade dikter och romanen Kallocain. När hon vann ett nordiskt pris 1931 för sin debutroman Astarte var hon en etablerad författare. Snart följde fler romaner, bland annat Kris, och sist men inte minst Kallocain. På Lindelöws bokförlag finns också ett urval av hennes mer okända noveller, med titeln Snäckors sorl. Plus de tre romanerna.
