“A beautifully touching story of true love and triumph over heartbreaking situations.”​ — People.com From New York Times bestselling author Mia Sheridan comes an emotional, slow burn romance about a woman desperate to hide and the man who sees through her walls, perfect for fans of Colleen Hoover and Lucy Score. I wanted to lose myself in the small town of Pelion, Maine. To forget everything I had left behind. The sound of rain. The blood. The coldness of a gun against my skin. For six months, each breath has been a reminder that I survived--and my dad didn't. I'm almost safe again. But the moment I meet Archer Hale, my entire world tilts on its axis . . . and never rights itself again. Until I trespass into his strange, silent, and isolated world, Archer communicates with no one. Yet in his whiskey-colored eyes, something intangible happens between us. There's so much more to him than just his beauty, his presence, or the ways his hands communicate with me. On me. But this town is mired in secrets and betrayals, and Archer is the explosive center of it all. So much passion. And so much hurt. But it's only in Archer's silence that we might just find what we need to heal . . . and live. Includes an exclusive extended epilogue from Archer's POV!

We all go through life with similar struggles and desires, but not everyone follows their childhood dreams, not everyone is successful, or at least feels that way. There are also moments in your life when something unusual happens. An accident, a health problem, or something bigger than your job, your career. In those moments, life loses its meaning and you start to think: Is what I am doing now all there is? Is this what I dreamed of as a child? What am I here for? Similar questions have been on my mind for more than two decades of my life, and I have found answers that I am willing to share with you in this book. People who are truly successful do things differently than most, and it is not too late for you to learn what they know. Without finding your purpose, true success can be very difficult to achieve. It is never too late to change the way you think, to act differently, and to make a difference. Everyone needs to believe in something, even if it is only in their own abilities. I invite you on an exciting journey of self-discovery and the beginning of a new phase of your life. What you will find in this book is a great insight into the psychology of who you are and a different perspective on widely accepted truths. It will teach you how to work on yourself and apply the knowledge you find to your own life. I've turned my life around, and so can you. You already have what you need. Find out how you can live the life of your dreams! "The world of subjective contrast and compassion Is a false world, built entirely By each person’s imagination. Nothing is as it seems...” ~ Zen proverb

"Do You Have a Band?"

During the late 1960s, throughout the 1970s, and into the 1980s, New York City poets and musicians played together, published each other, and inspired one another to create groundbreaking art. In "Do You Have a Band?", Daniel Kane reads deeply across poetry and punk music to capture this compelling exchange and its challenge to the status of the visionary artist, the cultural capital of poetry, and the lines dividing sung lyric from page-bound poem. Kane reveals how the new sounds of proto-punk and punk music found their way into the poetry of the 1960s and 1970s downtown scene, enabling writers to develop fresh ideas for their own poetics and performance styles. Likewise, groups like The Fugs and the Velvet Underground drew on writers as varied as William Blake and Delmore Schwartz for their lyrics. Drawing on a range of archival materials and oral interviews, Kane also shows how and why punk musicians drew on and resisted French Symbolist writing, the vatic resonance of the Beat chant, and, most surprisingly and complexly, the New York Schools of poetry. In bringing together the music and writing of Richard Hell, Patti Smith, and Jim Carroll with readings of poetry by Anne Waldman, Eileen Myles, Ted Berrigan, John Giorno, and Dennis Cooper, Kane provides a fascinating history of this crucial period in postwar American culture and the cultural life of New York City.
