In The Light We Carry, she opens a frank and honest dialogue with readers, considering the questions many of us wrestle with: How do we build enduring and honest relationships? How can we discover strength and community inside our differences? What tools do we use to address feelings of self-doubt or helplessness? What do we do when it all starts to feel like too much?

Michelle Obama offers readers a series of fresh stories and insightful reflections on change, challenge, and power, including her belief that when we light up for others, we can illuminate the richness and potential of the world around us, discovering deeper truths and new pathways for progress. Drawing from her experiences as a mother, daughter, spouse, friend, and First Lady, she shares the habits and principles she has developed to successfully adapt to change and overcome various obstacles—the earned wisdom that helps her continue to “become.” She details her most valuable practices, like “starting kind,” “going high,” and assembling a “kitchen table” of trusted friends and mentors. With trademark humor, candor, and compassion, she also explores issues connected to race, gender, and visibility, encouraging readers to work through fear, find strength in community, and live with boldness.

“When we are able to recognize our own light, we become empowered to use it,” writes Michelle Obama. A rewarding blend of powerful stories and profound advice that will ignite conversation, The Light We Carry inspires readers to examine their own lives, identify their sources of gladness, and connect meaningfully in a turbulent world.

noreply@blogger.com (UR) — Sat, 19 Nov 2022 12:58:00 +0000

A woman goes head-to-head with the CEO of a corporation threatening to destroy her neighborhood in this fresh and modern retelling of Pride and Prejudice by debut author Nikki Payne.

Liza B.—the only DJ who gives a jam—wants to take her neighborhood back from the soulless property developer dropping unaffordable condos on every street corner in DC. But her planned protest at a corporate event takes a turn after she mistakes the smoldering-hot CEO for the waitstaff. When they go toe-to-toe, the sparks fly—but her impossible-to-ignore family thwarts her every move. Liza wants Dorsey Fitzgerald out of her hood, but she’ll settle for getting him out of her head.

At first, Dorsey writes off Liza Bennett as more interested in performing outrage than acting on it. As the adopted Filipino son of a wealthy white family, he’s always felt a bit out of place and knows a fraud when he sees one. But when Liza’s protest results in a viral meme, their lives are turned upside down, and Dorsey comes to realize this irresistible revolutionary is the most real woman he’s ever met.

New Release : The Pleasure Chest : Cairo

noreply@blogger.com (UR) — Sat, 05 Nov 2022 13:49:00 +0000

Welcome to The Pleasure Chest, where secrets unravel, libidos unleash, and forbidden pleasures swirl into sensual surrender . . .

Nairobia Jansen is back. And, with all of her uninhibited sexual energy, she’s delivering more pleasure, more temptation, and more eroticism beyond the world’s wildest imagination. And, now, with the opening of her latest erotic endeavor, The Pleasure Chest, she’s taking seduction and decadent bliss to unbelievable heights.

At the Pleasure Chest—her ultra-chic, adult’s-only sex club, elite members abandon themselves to their sexual yearnings, and indulge in their carnal desires in the world’s most hedonistic playground ever. And membership alone is a small fortune well worth every dollar spent for access to unlimited salaciousness, debauchery, and sweet release.

With her exquisite beauty, insatiable sex drive, and limitless wealth, the luscious gray-eyed, half-Dutch, half-Nigerian vixen is a woman who causes a commotion wherever she goes.

She is unyielding. She is extreme. She is cunningly elusive. And uncompromising—to a fault. And she never allows a man to define her or decide her life for her. But when she haphazardly seduces a lover from her past, she finds her world slowly tilting uncontrollably out of her grasp. And it is the free-spirited, sexually uninhibited hunk who knows her body better than she knows herself who matches her energy. He takes what he wants and delivers toe-curling pleasure, unapologetically, in a sensuous game of heated passion and deep, dark, desire.

But will he have her spinning out of control, losing herself in him, in endless possibilities? Or will she finally embrace her truest desires, step into the light, and allow love to do what love does best?
