The Hate of Loving You


Book Description

Six years ago, in the dead of night, I woke up to a cold bed and an even colder future without her. I would've followed her anywhere and she left. I thought I'd moved on and left all she meant to me behind. But a first love is never easy to forget. Even harder when I once felt our love is inevitable--inescapable. And I've been proven right once again. One night brings us back together and derails our lives. We're sent on a collision course with a future apart and even scarier--a future together. I'm back basking in the warm glow of her gaze and burning with the unquenchable fire of her touch. We've walked this path before and our shattered hearts have been pieced back together. As easy as it would be to run again, I can't stop wanting her. This is our final chance to have what we've always wanted--each other. Or it'll be our ruin. The final book in the Falling Trilogy, a Fulton U Universe novel.




I Love You, But I Hate Your Politics


Book Description

We've all been there – the family dinners turned full-fledged political debates, the awkward chat in the kitchen at work, the difficulty of discussing politics on a first date or even at dinner with a long-time partner. Today's divisive climate – and the seemingly neverending circus of Brexit – has made discussion of current events uncomfortable and often uncivil. So, how exactly do we find ways to reach across the aisle to those whose views we find unpalatable? Psychotherapist and lifetime liberal Jeanne Safer hopes to shed some light on the situation. Combining her professional expertise with personal experience gleaned from over forty years of happy marriage to her stalwart conservative husband Richard Brookhiser, as well as a wealth of interviews with politically mixed couples, Safer offers frank advice for salvaging and strengthening relationships strained by political differences. Part relationship guide, part anthropological study, I Love You, But I Hate Your Politics is a helpful and entertaining how-to for anyone who has felt they are walking on eggshells in these increasingly uncertain times.
