Ian Woods came to 1890’s New York to work on his dream, designing the buildings of the future: skyscrapers. He had vowed never to lose his heart again, and so his career consumed him. Then he met the beautiful Julia, daughter of his patron…and sensed a woman of keen intelligence and passion, chafing at society’s restraints. Julia seemed to be a shallow society miss, but to Ian, she was beguiling—and dangerous. They were drawn to the brink of love, despite his vow—and then Julia stated her preference for another!
"Gilded Hearts" is set in the bustling streets of the city, where opulent mansions towered over cobblestone alleys, and the air was thick with the scent of wealth and ambition, there lived a young socialite named Eliza.

"Blew me away! Set within a dark, richly layered steampunk world, D'Abo pens a sweetly romantic yet steamy love story with a fresh, inventive spin on the Jack the Ripper tale that kept me guessing until the end. Loved it!" -- Bestselling author, Kristen Callihan on Gilded Hearts Piper Smith is an Archivist, one who extracts memories from the dead-and her first job is more difficult than she ever imagined. Not only is her subject the victim of murder, but the first man to arrive on the scene is the last man she ever expected to see again: handsome, tormented, and devilishly sexy Samuel Hawkins. Years ago, he fled the Archivists' Guild unceremoniously, leaving behind both unanswered questions . . . and Piper's aching heart. Sergeant Samuel Hawkins of the King's Sentry can hardly believe the strong, beautiful woman before him is the same shy girl he once knew. His instincts scream to hold her, to kiss her, and to make amends for disappearing from the Archives-and her life. Yet when Piper's extraction of the victim's memories reveals something unsettling, the line between ally and enemy suddenly begins to blur. And the question becomes whether their fragile love will blossom or fade like a distant memory.
A heart is said to be the powerhouse of the emotion that we all long to be drowned into—love. Yet, what happens when you no longer have a heart to love? That even the heart that beats inside you ceased to acknowledge its mere existence? Nevertheless, it is said that the only way to know if you still have love is to know that love cannot exist without a heart—or so they thought. No Heart Left to Love is a poetry and prose collection that pertains to all things about love, family, romance, heartbreaks and heartaches, betrayal, loss, longingness , unrequited love, and whether you still have what it takes to love—a living, beating heart within your chest.
Despite his determination to concentrate all his attention on designing skyscrapers in 1890's New York, Ian Woods can't help falling in love with Julia
The Heart and Its Healing Plants by Wolf-Dieter Storl Pdf
An ethnobotanical look at ancient heart beliefs, heart-strengthening herbs, and folk remedies for cardiovascular diseases • Discusses traditional understandings of the heart from early European cultures and indigenous peoples of the Americas, Asia, and Africa • Examines the heart as the home of the soul and an organ of perception and looks at traditional beliefs on what makes the heart sick • Presents a materia medica of plants used for millennia to treat heart-related conditions as well as plants in use by modern herbalists and cardiologists Among our ancestors as well as indigenous people still maintaining traditional diets there is little record of heart diseases in the modern sense. In the traditional worldview, the heart was considered the home of the soul and the source of love and vitality. As such, heart sickness was not seen as a result of poor nutrition, too much stress, or lack of exercise, but reflected an imbalance of the heart’s emotional and spiritual energies. Plants and folk remedies used as traditional heart medicine worked on the mental and spiritual level to help make the heart happy again. In this book, renowned ethnobotanist Wolf D. Storl, Ph.D., examines traditional understandings of the heart from early European cultures and indigenous peoples of the Americas, Asia, and Africa as well as a wealth of plants used in both ancient and contemporary times to treat heart conditions and ailments. He explores the heart as an organ of perception as well as its ability to remember, citing studies about the phenomenon of complete personality changes following a transplant. He examines what makes the heart sick, including different healing paradigms used to address the causes. He also looks at how time is perceived by the heart and how the modern epidemic of heart disease can be linked to our culture’s pervasive disconnection from nature’s rhythms. Presenting a materia medica of heart-strengthening herbs and folk remedies for cardiovascular diseases, the author offers in-depth descriptions of plants used for millennia to treat heart-related conditions as well as plants in use by modern herbalists and cardiologists. Sharing a holistic view of the heart—and heart disease—based on traditional perspectives, ethnomedical research, and herbal wisdom, this book reveals new ways to heal the heart by recognizing its integrated role in our physical, emotional, and spiritual wellness.
