As a Seminus demon, Raze’s life literally depends on having sex with females. The problem is that he doesn’t desire females, and it’s physically impossible for him to be with males. Thankfully, he and his best friend, Fayle, have an arrangement that keeps him alive . . . if lonely. He finds some solace in his work as a medic at Thirst, a vampire club known for its rough clientele. But his carefully structured world turns upside down when he meets a mysterious male who makes him want what he can never have. Slake is an assassin used to getting what he wants, and what he wants is Raze. But he also wants to earn back the soul he sold when he was a much different demon. All he has to do is capture a runaway succubus named Fayle and hand her over to her family. What he doesn’t count on is being caught himself by a web of lies—and his attraction to Raze. Raze and Slake must navigate a dangerous world to be together. But as Fayle’s jealousy of their relationship turns deadly, they find themselves embroiled in a battle not only for their love, but their lives and souls.

Understanding how these instincts work can not only change the way you think about your own affairs, it can alter how you think about a whole range of economic and business issues (from what constitutes a fair salary to the impact of globalisation).A new breed of economists - known as behavioural economists - has started to observe economic life more closely. This book reveals the fascinating results of their studies . Human instincts have long been ignored by traditional economics, but they are crucial factors in major economic decisions, and hence important for our futures. This engaging book is about those human instincts and how the study of them has begun to change fundamentally the science of economics and our own behaviour in today's world
Tap into your God-given intuition and start achieving ultimate success with this inspiring #1 New York Times bestseller from Bishop T.D. Jakes. If you have ever felt misaligned, this book is for you. If you have lost the rhythm, the passion, or the thrill of living in alignment, then keep reading. As He did with the very cells that comprise our bodies and the dry bones that were joined together for new life, God has given us deeper instincts to be attracted to those things that fit a higher and better purpose. Never settle for less than God's best for your life. Some people have the courage to move beyond the ordinary, from the methodical mediocre into the revolutionary realization of where they belong. You can have this sense of belonging only when you connect to your core calling. The calling to creativity, the calling to teach, to give, to build, are all part of allowing your instinct to guide you to the "something more" that you suspect is out there. If you are ready to break through the confines of where you are and discover where you are meant to be, then Instinct is your key! !--EndFragment--

Open any other book on creativity, and you will hear the clichéd rallying cries of current creative culture: Be True to Yourself! Find Your Voice! Express Your Authentic Self! This book is different. This book will not tell you to “Be true to yourself,” but will implore you to “Humble yourself.” This book will not repeat the slogan, “Find your Voice,” but will ask you to consider how your moral weaknesses are inhibiting your creativity. Examining the current creative culture, The Humble Creative argues that creativity can easily become disordered by vices that Christianity has long understood, but most have forgotten; vices such as vainglory, envy, sloth, anger, lust of the eyes, greed, and pride. The Humble Creative integrates the long-held Christian understanding of moral vice with creativity, providing an accessible exploration of individual vices and their role in disordering creativity—ultimately offering exercises for moral and creative formation. Written in an accessible way, this book explores the stories of several individuals whose creativity have become disordered by vice, introducing the reader to the often overlooked relationship between the moral character of the creative and the successful pursuit of flourishing creativity.

It is written in the style of a handbook so that you can read the chapters in order, or you can just begin with any chapter that appeals to you. Furthermore, it was originally written for those that have strayed from a Christian life. However, this book can also be very helpful for anyone that is searching for a deeper connection with God. Focusing on E.D.G.E. principles will strengthen your faith and enrich your life.

Are today's young people being psychologically conditioned to violence, sexual perversion, and suicidal hopelessness? Will mass shootings continue? Is the rise in same-sex attraction a closely related problem? Will violence continue to increase? Will deaths of despair continue to rise? Will America destroy itself from within? REVISED AND EDITED: America is now facing the worst psychological crisis in its history. What has changed over the past fifty-plus years that would produce such an outcome? How long will mass shootings (and school shootings) continue? Why do so many young people struggle with murderous and suicidal impulses (not to mention depression, anxiety, and same-sex attraction)? "I want to show how the problem of mass shootings, and America's mental health crisis in general, can be attributed to three primary causes: 1) the psychological effects of today's passive childrearing practices (producing low self-worth, insecurity, depression, self-doubt, anger, envious resentment, self-loathing, entitlement, loneliness, vindictive behavior, and same-sex attraction). Kids today are hurting on a much deeper level than anything seen in recent generations. They are also more unbridled than ever and likely to act upon distorted emotional urges and impulses. 2) the breakdown of the traditional family structure which produces these same psychological effects only worse. This has been accomplished primarily by extending sexual permissiveness throughout society, which has produced countless fatherless and dysfunctional homes. The majority of mass shooters and other violent offenders come from these environments. 3) the uncivilized means by which we bring about change in society (radical politics). This third element is what brings it all together. It is also a product of the first two. As most are aware, the spiritual seekers of the sixties (hippies) that brought us the sexual revolution were predominantly the children of gross neglect. This revolution is where today's social liberalism rapidly gained its influence within the political and cultural spheres. As a consequence of the unstable home environments, many of today's young people simply do not possess the emotional and psychological stability necessary to endure life's more negative circumstances and challenges." This book exposes the true culprit behind America's mental health crisis and reveals how this trend can be reversed if the necessary changes are made.
