Emily knew there would be strings attached when she relocated to the small town of Willow Creek, Maryland, for the summer to help her sister recover from an accident, but who could anticipate getting roped into volunteering for the local Renaissance Faire alongside her teenaged niece? Or that the irritating and inscrutable schoolteacher in charge of the volunteers would be so annoying that she finds it impossible to stop thinking about him? The faire is Simon's family legacy and from the start he makes clear he doesn't have time for Emily's lighthearted approach to life, her oddball Shakespeare conspiracy theories, or her endless suggestions for new acts to shake things up. Yet on the faire grounds he becomes a different person, flirting freely with Emily when she's in her revealing wench's costume. But is this attraction real, or just part of the characters they're portraying? This summer was only ever supposed to be a pit stop on the way to somewhere else for Emily, but soon she can't seem to shake the fantasy of establishing something more with Simon or a permanent home of her own in Willow Creek.

The I Ching is an ancient book of divinatory practice and wisdom that helps us find harmony and guide us at the crossroads of life. 64 figures or hexagrams make up this ancestral oracle, each of which offers an answer that connects directly with our inner wisdom. However, in its traditional version, the texts that accompany each hexagram are often excessively cryptic or alien to the experience of the readers. And that is the magic of this proposal signed by the youth writer Javier Ruescas, who adapts and simplifies the texts of the I Ching to our time. Each of the responses to the questions made becomes a map that warns us of opportunities and dangers, points out solutions and allows us to find the orientation we need when faced with life's questions and concerns.

Is your Partner a Narcissist? is a moving story that offers a route to break the psychopathic bubble that secretly traps your partner when they fall into the webs of a narcissist. In addition, it is a guide to be able to successfully get out of a relationship like this, whether it is years old or recent, and continue with a completely different life and free of ties. The manipulations, minimizations and other negative elements that a PNI makes its victims believe are not real, they are just the result of the pathological circle that surrounds and momentarily blinds those who experience it. You have before you a deep and very well worked text that shows the cycle of psychopathic abuse and its characteristics. Its objective is to report and share the most current and complete information to warn those who do not know that this profile exists and accompany, in the recovery process, those who suffer next to a PNI. The lack of information on the subject is the main cause of the increasing number of victims of emotional fraud at the hands of integrated narcissistic psychopaths.

"It was supposed to be a relaxing vacation in sweet, sunny Cape Cod-just me and my beloved brother-but discovering a corpse in our rental house really throws a wrench into our tanning schedule. Now a rude, crude bounty hunter has arrived on the back of his motorcycle to catch the killer and refuses to believe I can be helpful, despite countless hours of true crime podcast listening. Not to mention a fulfilling teaching career of wrangling second graders. A brash bounty hunter and an energetic elementary schoolteacher: the murder-solving team no one asked for, but thanks to these pesky attempts on my life, we're stuck together, come hell or high tide. I'm just here to do a job, not babysit an amateur sleuth. Although...it is becoming less and less of a hardship to have her around. Sure, she's stubborn, distracting and can't stay out of harm's way. She's also brave and beautiful and reminds me of the home I left behind three years ago. In other words, the insatiable hunger and protectiveness she is waking up in me is a threat to my peace of mind. Before I sink any deeper into this dangerous attraction, I need to solve this murder and get back on the road."--Provided by publisher.
