The Complete Broken Mirror Series Boxed Set Book 1: The Way Down Roark Miller protects people for a fee. A substantial one. It’s a fair exchange. His expertise in security for their money. Socialites. Diplomats. Famous athletes. He doesn’t ask questions once the check clears. No matter how screwed up the job gets, it’s still less stressful than his days as a homicide detective in Detroit. Roark had blurred the lines between right and wrong too many times to pick up his badge again. But his past won’t stay buried for long. Demi Kay finds herself choking on a cloud of body spray in a bar crawling with college-aged kids. It was meant as a night of celebration but turns quickly to a nightmare she can’t wait to escape. The only silver lining is the attractive bodyguard who looks equally disappointed with the establishment. Roark and Demi find they have far more in common than their mutual distain for the party scene. When Roark realizes Demi is a victim from a case he’d consulted on a decade ago, he knows trouble is just around the corner. Mysterious threats turn to violence and Roark is the only thing standing between Demi and danger. But will he be enough? Book 2: The Way Home There are things, once put in motion, that can’t be stopped. Demi has found herself on the wrong side of danger. Everything she once thought to be true is suddenly in question. Roark has never let his feelings get in the way of his job. Protecting people requires the ability to keep his distance. Those rules flew out the window the moment he met Demi. Book 3: The Way Back Alexandria runs. She hides. She evades. The last ten years of her life have been spent trying to survive. The best strategy was to travel alone. People were liabilities and never worth the trouble. When her sister tracks her down and longs for a relationship, Alexandria knows it won’t end well. Especially when danger and death lurk around every corner. Charger won’t let up. The men who shot up his car and almost killed him have to pay for what they’ve done. The more he learns the more he realizes just how despicable they are. He planned for danger. He expected gunfire. But Charger hadn’t accounted for Alexandria and the whirlwind of drama that came with her. When there is no where else to turn and no roads left to run down, Alexandria must decide if she’ll embrace the safety of those who want to protect her, or set off on her own again.

"Body dysmorphic disorder, or BDD, is a disease that causes sufferers to be obsessed by perceived flaws in their appearance. In the original edition of The Broken Mirror, the first book ever written on the topic of BDD, Dr. Katharine Phillips brought readers an authoritative and comprehensive guide to this often-debilitating illness. Like the original, this Revised and Expanded Edition draws on Dr. Phillips' years of clinical practice and scientific research, including professional evaluations of approximately 900 individuals with BDD. Phillips describes severe cases, but also a multitude of milder cases. Whereas some sufferers are debilitated by their concerns, others are able to function well in society, but remain secretly obsessed by their "hideous acne" or "horrible nose," sneaking constant peeks at a pocket mirror, or spending hours at a time redoing makeup. BDD may afflict as much as two percent of the population - nearly 6 million people."--BOOK JACKET.

All four books in 'Gods & Ghosts', a series of contemporary fantasy novels by T.H. Morris and Cynthia D. Witherspoon, now in one volume! Gods & Ghosts: Jonah Rowe knew that he didn't know everything about his abilities as an 11th Percenter - a human who could access the power of their auras. But he knew enough to not believe in the myths of the Greek Gods. Those were stories for kids and Hollywood. Eva McRayne wanted nothing more than to get back to her Hollywood life after a senseless tragedy derailed it. So when she and her film crew went to Rome, North Carolina to film an episode for her show, Grave Messages, she had no idea that she was walking straight into a trap. One that only Jonah Rowe could help her escape from. Gods & Thieves: Eva never thought in a million years she could get kidnapped. Maybe what the books said about Greek heroes and hubris had a point. She was too good of a fighter. There was no way Ares could get his hands on her. Jonah Rowe was willing to work with anyone or anything to get Eva back home. Even if that meant working with the Devil himself. He had no idea that he was falling right into the plans that Hades had for him. For Eva. Jonah was done being the hero. He would take what he wanted. Live how he wanted. The rest of the world be damned. Gods & Reapers: After Joey gets seriously injured, Eva is beside herself. She's the first to admit it: Joey Lawson is more than just her cameraman. He's her brother; the one solid through her time as the Sibyl. She couldn't give up on him, despite the threats that the spirit of his attacker piled on her head. So she ran to Jonah Rowe, the man who had become her best friend and savior. But Jonah has trouble of his own in the form of Mary Anne Greene, the country sweetheart he had met on the road to be with Eva. And the longer the two of them are around each other, the harder Jonah has fallen for her. But the sweet Mary Anne isn't all that she seems to be, and Eva knows it. She can feel it. And by the gods, if Jonah is hurt by this woman, there will be hell to pay. Gods & Monsters: Eva had gone from one fire straight into another. After her run-in with a deranged Spirit Reaper and Persephone, she was sure that returning to filming the episodes for Grave Messages would be a vacation. How could she possibly get into any more trouble than she'd already been in? But there was something much worse on the horizon. Much darker. Much more dangerous. Poveglia Island.
