Carved


Book Description

River, As the perilous journey across a country I'd long thought destroyed begins, I don't know who I am anymore or what I'm becoming. My abilities grow stronger with each passing day, as does the fear of what comes next. All I know is that I will do anything to avoid becoming like Lucifer, and to protect those I love, even if that means protecting them from me. Kobal, No matter what it takes, I will keep River safe, even if my actions end up driving a wedge between us. River is mine to protect, no matter how hard that might be to do now that our journey has begun. I won't stop until Lucifer is destroyed, won't stop until I claim my throne, and she will be by my side when I do. It's all just a matter of keeping her alive until then. ***There are four books in this paranormal romance series which is now complete. Not all things will be resolved in this book.

Good Intentions (The Road to Hell Series, Book 1)


Book Description

This series contains the king of demons falling for one feisty heroine, lots of love, no cheating, and creatures from your wildest imagination. River Thirteen years have passed since the war started, bombs fell, and the central states became a thing of the past. When the war ended, the government erected a wall to divide the surviving states from the destroyed ones. I never expected to leave my town, but unlike those who volunteered to go, I wasn't given a choice. With a dim knowledge of my strange abilities, the soldiers came for me. They took me beyond the wall, where I learned the truth is far more terrifying than I imagined. Alone, with humans and demons eager to see what I can do, I find myself irresistibly drawn to the one man I should avoid most—a man who isn't even really a man. Kobal I've spent my entire life with one mission… reclaim my throne from Lucifer and fix what the angels tore apart when they cast him from Heaven. Not even when the humans tore open the gates, and unleashed Hell on Earth, did I waver from my goal. I've never been closer to my throne, yet I find myself risking everything because I can't stay away from her… the woman who might be the key to destroying Lucifer. *** Due to sexual content, violence, and language, this book is recommended for readers 18+ years of age.***

Carved in Sand


Book Description

A journalist tackles her growing forgetfulness and inability to concentrate as she seeks to understand how the brain works. Why can’t you remember where you put your keys? Or the title of the movie you saw last week? Anyone older than forty knows that forgetfulness can be unnerving, frustrating, and sometimes terrifying. With compassion and humor, acclaimed journalist Cathryn Jakobson Ramin explores the factors that determine how well or poorly one’s brain will age. She takes readers along on her lively journey—consulting with experts in the fields of sleep, stress, traumatic brain injury, hormones, genetics, and dementia, as well as specialists in nutrition, cognitive psychology, and the burgeoning field of drug-based cognitive enhancement. Along the way, she turns up fresh scientific findings, explores the dark regions of the human brain, and hears the intimate confessions of high-functioning midlife adults who—like so many of us—are desperate to understand exactly what’s going on upstairs. Praise for Carved in Sand “[An] insightful and well-researched journey through memoryland.” —Scientific American Mind “The variety of perspectives and the wealth of scientific information Ramin provides, as well as her warm personal style, will reward readers and may well help them stay mentally sharp.” —Publishers Weekly
