In an age fraught with terrorism, United States Secret Service canine teams risk their lives to safeguard the president, vice president, their families, visiting heads of state, and a host of others. Unprecedented access to these heroic dog teams has allowed a fascinating first-time-ever look at a very special breed of heroes.Wherever the president goes, there will be dogs. They'll be there no matter what the country or state. They'll be there regardless of the political climate, the danger level, the weather, or the hour. "If you let down your guard on the job," says Special Agent Bill Glady, canine program director, "it can change the history of the world."It's a burden Secret Service dog handlers take extremely seriously regardless of their specialty. Tactical dog handlers on the White House lawn, handlers whose dogs sniff for explosives around the world, and those who walk their amiable floppy-eared dogs up and down Pennsylvania Avenue all live one common...

Emil isn’t your usual adoring leading man. He’s the monster anti-hero. Aishe isn’t your classic protagonist. She’s the temptress anti-heroine. This isn’t your typical romance. It’s a horror anti-love story. This isn’t the traditional novel where the sweet, innocent girl finds her prince charming and they live happily-ever-after. If that’s what you’re looking for, look somewhere else. Because in this story, no one gets out unscathed. Aishe is running. Running from the burn of a love she knows will consume her. Running from a soul mate she’s never even met. If only she hadn’t been hired as a merch girl for the hottest indie band on earth. If only she’d never laid eyes on its front man, Emil—intense, sexy, and so unlike the men of her culture. If only she hadn’t fallen onto his lips, then into his bed. If only her flame hadn’t exploded into a full-on forest fire. If only Emil’s heart didn’t belong to someone else. Emil is running. Running from a broken heart. Running from who he was with her. If only Zoe hadn’t left. If only Aishe hadn’t been right there. If only she hadn’t been so damn gorgeous—insistent—different. If only he could control himself around her. If. Only. $2.99 sales price 2 first days only.** Views: 30

I turned eighteen in October, and that's practically a woman.A woman whose feelings for him have only grown stronger.The good news is, Gunner is spending Christmas break with my family this year while his parents are in Europe. He hasn't seen me much in the past two years. Not since he and my brother went to college out of state. Will spending three weeks under the same roof finally make him see me as the woman I've become and not just his best friend's little sister?I hope so, because I would like nothing more than to give him a Christmas present this year neither of us will ever forget. A gift no other man will ever receive from me.My... Views: 30
