“We have always been greedy.” All three of them are star-crossed lovers, tattered strings colored with tragic red yet with an unwavering bond. Doctor Kian with grace and tailored malevolence. FBI agent, Remo, with corrupted honor and violence. One paved the way with dependency, and the other followed with a lock behind him. The trust was ingrained into her mind, a smooth transition of memories into another, and Maya doesn’t know when that memory happened. One is crazy, the other isn’t any less insane, and nobody knows the sins resting peacefully in their hearts. Maya’s efforts to live a normal life fail when an invitation lures her to a snow-capped villa, and she’s stuck with two men who make her head dizzy and her instincts go haywire. They pay a little too much attention to Maya and are unaffected by the chaotic aftermath of a guest mysteriously dying. Keeping Maya was always the objective, and they didn’t mind sharing.

Melissa Morelli Lacroix explores the love and longing, loss and pain, grief and healing found in the music of Frédéric Chopin, Clara Schumann, and Claude Debussy in a series of poetic cycles that respond to each composer’s work. Lacroix writes with her ear finely tuned to the music of death and decay, to the harmonies and discords of music, nature, and human desire. Always, in A Most Beautiful Deception, we find the chords of love and devotion being torn apart by the deterioration of the body. Lacroix uses her research into the composers’ lives to add layers and nuance, thus creating a complex triangle between the reader, the music, and the poet. Woven almost imperceptibly into these accounts of three composers and their respective fights against the decay of the body and the mind, lies the thread of the poet’s own relationships and loss.

Error filled teachings reflect an artificial light that beckons to those that are wandering in darkness. According to Bible, the end times will be marked by widespread deception, counterfeit miracles, and the appearance of false prophets. Each of these evils will contribute to an atmosphere that will deceive an untold number of people throughout the world. Satan disguises himself as an "angel of light" and his ministers as ministers of righteousness (2 Corinthians 11:14-15). Jesus has warned us that the signs and wonders to come from these false "angels of light" will be so deceptive, that if we do not seek the truth then we will be deceived. Lies have many elements of truth in them. Unfortunately, there are many professing Christians today that rely on their own "feelings" as to whether something is of God. Experience should never validate truth, and to judge something on how it "feels" or "looks" rather than testing it against God's Word and sound doctrine is a road that will lead to ruin. This is the perfect "set-up" for the Antichrist. Yasmeen Suri was born in India believing in the new age gods of her culture and converted to Christianity years later. She is a licensed ordained minister and speaks and sings professionally across the world. Yasmeen has regularly appeared on the 700 Club, TBN, TCT, National and International radio, churches, and conventions and sharing the dangers of "spiritual deception." She regularly sings the U.S. " National Anthem" and "God Bless America" for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, U.S. Department of Justice, U. S. Military, American-Arab Anti Discrimination Committee, Access of Dearborn, Major Sports Teams, and Conventions.

Five years after writing Deceived on Purpose: The New Age Implications of the Purpose-Driven Church, former New Age follower Warren B. Smith continues to reveal how Rick Warren and other Christian leaders-wittingly or unwittingly-are leading the church into a spiritual trap. Rick Warren's Broad Way examines church metaphors, concepts, and beliefs that are essentially the same as those being used in today's New Age teachings. And while biblical prophecy is being minimized and explained away, the "New Science" is being used to prepare the world-and the church-to accept a new spirituality and a false New Age Christ. This book explains how all the puzzle pieces are in place for the "strong delusion" described in 2 Thessalonians. Rick Warren's Broad Way pierces right into the heart of this deception while preparing believers in Jesus Christ to effectively stand against it.

After a disastrous car crash outside New York City, Ridley Duchannes--Dark Caster, Siren, and bona fide bad girl-has gone missing. Her wannabe rocker and quarter Incubus boyfriend, Wesley "Link" Lincoln, was driving, and when he comes to, Ridley is nowhere to be found. The only clue is the giant raven emblazoned on the hood of the truck that hit them, which can mean only one thing: Silas Ravenwood is back. And he has Ridley.
