“A must-read about an American patriot whose courage and determination will have a lasting impact on the future of our Armed Forces and the nation.”—Senator John McCain On July 29, 2009, Air National Guard major Mary Jennings “MJ” Hegar was shot down while on a Medevac mission on her third tour in Afghanistan. Despite being wounded, she fought the enemy and saved the lives of her crew and their patients. But soon she would face a new battle: to give women who serve on the front lines the credit they deserve... After being commissioned into the U.S. Air Force, MJ Hegar was selected for pilot training by the Air National Guard, finished at the top of her class, then served three tours in Afghanistan, flying combat search-and-rescue missions, culminating in a harrowing rescue attempt that would earn MJ the Purple Heart as well as the Distinguished Flying Cross with Valor Device. But it was on American soil that Hegar would embark on her greatest challenge—to eliminate the military’s Ground Combat Exclusion Policy, which kept female armed service members from officially serving in combat roles despite their long-standing record of doing so with honor. In Shoot Like a Girl, MJ takes the reader on a dramatic journey through her military career: an inspiring, humorous, and thrilling true story of a brave, high-spirited, and unforgettable woman who has spent much of her life ready to sacrifice everything for her country, her fellow man, and her sense of justice.

This book fills a gap in the historiographical and theoretical fields of race, gender, and war. In brief, Race and Gender in Modern Western Warfare (RGMWW) offers an introduction into how cultural constructions of identity are transformed by war and how they in turn influence the nature of military institutions and conflicts. Focusing on the modern West, this project begins by introducing the contours of race and gender theories as they have evolved and how they are employed by historians, anthropologists, sociologists, and other scholars. The project then mixes chronological narrative with analysis and historiography as it takes the reader through a series of case studies, ranging from the early nineteenth century to the Global War of Terror. The purpose throughout is not merely to create a list of so-called "great moments" in race and gender, but to create a meta-landscape in which readers can learn to identify for themselves the disjunctures, flaws, and critical synergies in the traditional memory and history of a largely monochrome and male-exclusive military experience. The final chapter considers the current challenges that Western societies, particularly the United States, face in imposing social diversity and tolerance on statist military structures in a climates of sometimes vitriolic public debate. RGMWW represents our effort to blend race, gender, and military war, to problematize these intersections, and then provide some answers to those problems.

This is book 1 of the Blood Eagles MC series! Books 2 and 3 are available everywhere now! I broke every rule to make her mine. She was sent to keep me under wraps. But no one tells me what to do. I don’t give a damn if her brother says she’s off-limits: This one’s belongs to me. CAIN My body is still aching from that beatdown. But I’m fired up, looking for someone to take my anger out on. I want revenge – not just for me, but for my MC. The Blood Eagles are a family, and loyalty runs thick in our veins. No one messes with us and walks away clean. But the boss has me stuck at home, healing… With his kid sister for a nurse. Missy Dermott is here to make me feel better and keep me out of trouble. But the curvy vixen is causing trouble of a whole ‘nother kind. Every sassy retort makes me want to do one thing and one thing only: Crush my lips against hers and own her ‘til the sun comes up. MISSY I was born into the biker life. I’d die for the Blood Eagles MC. But my brother, the club president, has me babysitting his injured soldier while the big boys plan revenge. I’ve got the connections to help us drive our rival away from the territory border. But instead I’m spending my nights helping Cain Vale wash his hair and get into bed. What a waste. It’s a good thing the biker is easy on the eyes. Because his temper is driving me crazy. But the longer we’re trapped in here together – emotions running high, tensions building – the longer we risk something dangerous happening. Something sinful. Something that might destroy us both. It won’t be long until the havoc erupts. *** She has biker blood in her veins, so Missy isn’t exactly “innocent,” but she pales in comparison to the sexy, filthy motorcycle club alpha male who comes to claim her as his. This dark MC romance series has the ingredients – hot sex, thrilling suspense, bad boys with bodies to kill and hands to claim – to make it your favorite book ever. Come check out the HAVOC today!

A national bestseller, the story of “a boy’s last days of youth and a history his father can’t leave behind” (The Daily Beast). Tom Harry has a streak of frost in his black pompadour and a venerable bar called The Medicine Lodge, the chief watering hole and last refuge in the town of Gros Ventre, in northern Montana. Tom also has a son named Rusty, an “accident between the sheets” whose mother deserted them both years ago. The pair make an odd kind of family, with the bar their true home, but they manage just fine. Until the summer of 1960, that is, when Rusty turns twelve. Change arrives with gale force, in the person of Proxy, a taxi dancer Tom knew back when, and her beatnik daughter, Francine. Is Francine, as Proxy claims, the unsuspected legacy of her and Tom’s past? Without a doubt she is an unsettling gust of the future, upending every certainty in Rusty’s life and generating a mist of passion and pretense that seems to obscure everyone’s vision but his own. The Bartender’s Tale wonderfully captures how the world becomes bigger and the past becomes more complex in the last moments of childhood.

As with all the Lucas Rook mysteries, there's the darkness, the tension, the violence, and the terrible visuals that culminate as only Richard Sand, the Master of the Nightmare, would have it; a three-way shootout that reveals the awful secret of Hell's Reunion, which is even too ugly for Lucas Rook.
