In a desperate situation, Mason stood tall and reached out a hand, pulling Myron out of trouble. For Myron, Mason and his Rebel Wayfarers offered not only a way out but—most importantly—a chance at a life filled with honor. Through the years, Myron has diligently held up his end of the bargain. Working tirelessly to ensure things in the ever-growing club run smoothly, his efficient efforts pave the way for Mason to make bold changes, continuing to build a worthy legacy. Time and again Myron has watched men plucked from the world of citizens be molded into what the club required. He’d often been an observer when Mason adjusted the club’s vision to accommodate things the men didn’t even know they needed, giving them the best possible life filled with love and brotherhood. He just never expected that would happen to him. That was until he met Andrus Kasmouski, and Myron found himself thrown into a game of cat and mouse with his own desires. During this trial by fire, can he dig deep and find the courage to take destiny into his own hands? 18+ due to explicit content.

    Mohana made us want to read more..."Kamy Wicoff, author and founder of She Writes.com Sita is the firstborn, but since she is a female child, her birth makes life difficult for her mother who is expected to produce a son. From the start, Sita finds herself in a culture hostile to her, but her irrepressible personality won’t be subdued. Born in India, she immigrates as a toddler to the U.S. with her parents after the birth of her much anticipated younger brother. Sita shifts between the vastly different worlds of her WASP dominated school and her father’s insular traditional home. Her journey takes us beneath tales of successful middle class Indians who immigrated to the U.S. in the 1980s. The gap between positive stereotypes of South Asian immigrants and the reality of Sita's family, who are struggling to stay above the poverty line is a relatively new theme for Indian literature in English. Sita's struggles to be American and yet herself, take us deeper into understanding the dilemmas of first generation children, and how religion and culture define women.

    He has plenty to do, being the head ranger of the Tahoe National Forest, but living alone in a cabin in the middle of the woods isn’t exactly the most riveting life. He’s known excitement, too. For many years he served as a sniper in the marine corps, but a devastating shoulder injury has reduced him to civilian duties. These days, a walker’s twisted ankle or a trapped raccoon is about as exciting as it gets. Nothing can prepare him, though, for the day he comes across a man lying in the middle of a lonely forest road. The man is alive, but he’d certainly been left for dead. When he wakes up in the hospital, it becomes obvious that he’s suffering from amnesia. With nothing to identify him save for the huge angel tattoo that spreads across his shoulders, the hospital staff name him Gabriel, and tell Hopper that with nowhere else to send him, once he’s recovered from his injuries he’ll have to be sent out into the world. Against his better judgement, but always a sucker for swarthy looks and piercing blue eyes, Hopper agrees to allow Gabriel to stay with him. Perhaps, together, they can work at finding out who this mystery man is, why he was left lying in the forest, and who could possibly have attacked him so badly. What Hopper can never prepare himself for is how deeply he will fall for this handsome stranger, and how he will be able to let Gabriel go when the past, as it always does, comes to catch up.
