What would you give up for the people you love?
When Megan Taylor, a single mother and artist living on Cape Cod, receives the shocking news that her cancer has returned, she's faced with the most difficult decision she's ever had to make. The love she has for her daughter, Olivia, and her closest friends will be stretched and frayed.
Megan's illness reawakens her best friend, Holly Townsend's, torment of a long-held secret and years of betrayal. How does one choose between a daughter and a life-long best friend? Can the secret she has been keeping be revealed after years of lying without destroying everyone in its wake?
Meanwhile, fourteen-year-old Olivia's world is falling apart right before her eyes, and there's nothing she can do about it. She finds herself acting in ways she cannot even begin to understand. When her internal struggles turn to dangerous behavior, even the paranormal connection she shares with her mother might not be enough to save her - her life will hang in the balance.
Megan's Way is a journey of self discovery and heartfelt emotions, exploring the depth of the mother-daughter bond, and the intricacies of friendship.

People die every day.
But not all of the souls can or want to move onto the afterlife.
That’s where the brothers Thane and Mort Grym come in.
Thane and Mort are bounty hunters for dead souls. They inherited the job from their father and they’re two of the best in town.
But when there’s a double homicide at the Kirkland Motel the Grym brothers end up with more than they bargained for. In a world without vampires, zombies or the undead, one of their bounties might not be as dead as he’s supposed to be.

The Secret in the Love of God by Osman Nuri Topbas

Product Description
The Secret of Love was penned to engrave hearts with the love of Allah and His Prophet, through words reflecting a love of the kind straight from the author’s heart. It consists of two main chapters.
The first chapter deals with themes that manifest the love of Prophet Muhammad –blessings and peace be upon him-, drawing attention to the affect of this love on each creation. To give an example, under a title inspired from a date log weeping from the separation of the Prophet –blessings and peace be upon him-, it elaborates the love towards him experienced by what is on the surface an inanimate object. The chapter then goes on to dwell on issues constructive of Muslim character; like insan-i kamil, staying on the path of uprightness, being in the company of the righteous and spirit and body, laying emphasis thereby on the balance of life a Muslim ought to maintain.
The second chapter voices the way in which the righteous led their lives, their lifelong commitment and service to Islam and their love and devotion, aspects sure to provide an example for others.
The book teaches us the way to love the Beauty of all Beauties, instead of being deceived by beauties which are only temporary.
In an eloquent style, The Secret of Love serves to remind us of the truth that only Allah, glory unto Him, is the Absolute Beauty.

But these aren't just any group of people. They are the best of the best, brought to her by chance; tied to her by a bond stronger than any she's ever known before. Being discovered by the human world isn't Khalida's only concern, however. She has made enemies in the vampire world.
When she makes a mistake that exposes her to those who want to take revenge on her, she is tossed into a whirlwind of death and destruction. She has to find out who is killing the humans who have become her family, and save those who remain.
Khalida has spent her entire life trying to protect the people she loves, but ultimately, she will have to decide between the ghosts of her past and the people who have put their lives on the line for her. Her decision may haunt her for the rest of her life.
