My Life as a Doormat (in Three Acts) by Rene Gutteridge Pdf

Act I: Avoid conflict at all costs. Even when someone signs you up for something you really don't want to do. Act II: Try to hold things together, even when your life is spinning out of control. Act III: (You'll have to read the book to learn how it all plays out.) Playwright Leah Townsend doesn't think of herself as a doormat. In fact, her life is pretty good. There's the gorgeous and dependable Edward (even if he is a little dull), and her challenging career (even if the last two plays were flops). The trouble is, Leah's feeling restless these days. The new play isn't going well. Her agent is handing out ultimatums. And her boyfriend Edward, who insists Leah "doesn't handle conflict well," has the nerve to enroll her in a conflict-management class full of people she's sure are her polar opposites, including a conservative talk-radio host named Cinco Dublin who thrives on the very thing Leah wants to avoid--making waves. Can a conflict-challenged playwright ever learn to stand her ground...even if life doesn't come in three predictable acts?

Gardenias for Breakfast by Robin Jones Gunn Pdf

"Everybody has a story. You listen to that story, Honeygirl, and your story will come find you." Her Grand Lady spoke these words when Abby was just a girl, spending the summer in rural Louisiana, surrounded by an extended, loving family. She's been listening carefully ever since. Now Abby is raising her own family thousands of miles away. And even though Hawaii might seem like paradise to some, it's a long way away from those idyllic days she remembers, sitting with her grandmother, learning about the beauty and mystery of life. So Abby has just one wish: that her daughter Hannah might be touched by the beauty of her 92-year-old Grand Lady's stories, before it's too late. But when Hannah finally does spend time with Grand Lady, the old woman crushes her tender spirit. And a mother-daughter journey home becomes an adventure of discovery-about the importance of family and the healing found in forgiveness. In Gardenias for Breakfast, mothers and daughters may recognize a branch or two from their own family trees and find themselves wishing not only for Grand Lady's guidance but also for Hannah's ability to smell the clouds.

Four-Hands and the Legion Blade by Rin Greenwood Pdf

Euphie--Elf, wanderer, casual drinker--carries a perhaps ill-considered loyalty and lifelong debt to Kieran 'Four-Hands' Sheaford--thief, philanderer, adequate poet. She recounts her travels with him, not least of which is that of the Legion Blade. When the pair of mercenaries have their tab called in at their usual haunt, Kieran steers them to a high-paying job to recover the stolen heirloom of the Widow Fairfax. However, the quest is not the quick cash-grab it appeared to be, as the circumstances of the theft call for suspicion, and the heirloom in question holds striking similarities to a sword of legend --the Legion Blade-- which is said to be possessed by one thousand murdered souls. Driven by his love for the mystical and a certain fondness for the client's physical form, Kieran accepts the job, trusting the grunt work to his long-suffering companion.
