How To Make Him BURN With Desire...Only For YOU (FOR WOMEN ONLY Book 2)


Lanie Stevens - 2013
    There are a few chapters dedicated to what men have shared with me about things that will make them leave a relationship or be unhappy with their mate. However, this book is to empower you (women) and help you get ANY man to desire you. Get any man without making changes to your looks, behavior or personality. If you decide to make changes it will just be to improve yourself AND because that is what you desire. Let's face facts, most relationship books tell you "what you need to do to change yourself" and attract a man. Some tell you that you need to be a "bitch" and others that you need to be a "pussycat"…really? Just like there are all kinds of reasons you are attracted to a certain man, there are all kinds of reasons he will be attracted to you. Why would you arbitrarily change anything about yourself? What if the thing you change would be the ONE thing he would like about you? There are a few things that I found ALL men hate: 1) women who let themselves go physically; 2) women who "nag, bitch and complain"; and 3) women who use the "bait and switch" to get their man. I will cover those things in the book BUT this book is not written to change you. This book will have men desiring you (and only you) in spite of what you look like, your personality, physical appearance or outward desirability. You will learn a technique that can be used at any time and place. A technique that will have him wanting you and thinking about you with desire….whenever you please. Ladies, the power of the pussy is not located between your legs. It is located between your ears! You just don't know how to use it…yet! In "Pussy Whip" A Guide To Control Your Man I taught you a technique that will change your life. Did you read it and listen? This book will take it a step further and add desire to your capabilities. You don't need to remember how long to look in someone's direction, how many times to bat your eyelashes, whether you should call him or not, how many dates before having sex….silly dating books written by people who don't know my technique. If you want to change yourself to attract a man...go for it! It you want to have a man (any man) desiring you using one simple technique... then this is the one book you need. One technique to have ANY man panting after YOU!!! It may be a total stranger OR the man who sleeps next to you each night. He will think of you with a burning desire! Lanie Stevens is the author of: Lustful Lanie (Erotic Romance) - Book One Lustful Lanie (Erotic Romance) - Book Two Lustful Lanie (Erotic Romance) - Book Three "Pussy Whip" A Guide To Control Your Man (non-fiction) How To Make Him BURN With Desire…Only for YOU (non-fiction)

Tessy Rawlins - 2014
    True stories of those who went to Heaven. “I feel now as though I have stolen a piece of heaven and brought it back to earth and feel as if each time I’m able to share it with somebody, I break a piece of that heaven off and hand it to them.” “It felt like the whole time I was in somebody's arms. Like somebody was holding me.” “I have to tell you that the joy I felt was absolutely beyond description, because I doubt that there is such a word in any human language.” “The place I had just come back from was the place I knew. God is real; heaven is absolutely real.” “Heaven is such a beautiful place and heaven is for real.” “It was mind-blowing and breathtaking” “A current of love so deep, it seemed unfathomable that such a place had existed without my knowing. How could I have been blind all my life to this bright river of love, peace, joy that cradled me?” “It felt like all the love of everybody in the world, everybody I knew, was hugging me,” "I know without a doubt there's no such thing as death.” From Tessy Rawlins, comes more astonishing, affirming and comforting true stories of those who went to Heaven, and came back to tell of the beauty, and the love that is waiting for us too. It seems that more and more people feel the desire to speak out about their life-changing experiences of going to Heaven. No longer do people feel they must keep quiet about what happened to them; and often they feel compelled to share their experience with as many people as will listen to them. They have a message, and that message is always of the unconditional love and acceptance of Heaven. Of the forgiveness, of the all-encompassing, loving light that wraps around them as though embracing them, and of the re-uniting with their loved ones...

The Alpha Female's Guide to Men and Marriage: How Love Works


Suzanne Venker - 2017
    She’s the quintessential modern woman—assertive, razor sharp, and fully in control. Her success in the marketplace is undeniable, a downright boon to society. But what happens when the alpha female gets married? She becomes an alpha wife, of course. An alpha wife is in charge of everything and everyone. She is, quite simply, the Boss. The problem is, no man wants a boss for a wife. That type of relationship may work for a spell, but it will eventually come crashing down. Since 1970, just as women became more and more powerful outside the home—more alpha—the divorce rate has quadrupled. And it is women who lead the charge. Today, 70% of divorce is initiated by wives. Do men just make lousy husbands? Not at that rate, says Suzanne Venker, bestselling author of The War on Men. The truth is that women don’t know how to be wives. Why would they? That’s not what they were raised to become. But women can learn. There’s an art to loving a man, says Venker, and any woman can master it. An alpha female herself, Venker learned how to be a wife the hard way—through trial and error. Lots of error. And here’s what she knows today—the set of skills a woman needs to pursue a career, or even to raise children, is the exact set of skills that will mess up her marriage but good. No man likes to be told what to do. And no woman respects the man who does. The Alpha Female's Guide to Men and Marriage gives women who are used to being in charge the tools they need to make their marriages less competitive and more complementary. Part memoir, part advice, this brave manifesto argues that while marriage is more challenging for the alpha female, it is possible to find peace in your marriage. In fact, it may be easier than you think.
