The Two Sides of Love
Find the balance between tough love and tender love. In The Two Sides of Love, best-selling authors John Trent and Gary Smalley explain how to find a healthy balance between the protective, consistent, “hard side” of love and the tender, understanding, “soft side” of love. This is the groundbreaking book that introduced the four “animal” personality types (Lion, Otter, Golden Retriever, and Beaver) and it will show you how to best demonstrate both sides of love in all your relationships—with your spouse, children, and friends. Included in this thoroughly updated edition is a free online assessment of your core personality type. This updated edition is a helpful tool for personal growth, small group studies, and couples’ classes.
The Secret Between Us
The Secret Between Us – A Passionate and Heart-Wrenching Romance Giuliana came to Paris for a fresh start, leaving behind the shadows of a past she swore never to revisit. When she accepts a job as a nanny for the sweet and innocent Charlotte, she never expects to fall for her powerful, brooding father—Mason, a billionaire doctor with a guarded heart and no interest in love. Mason is everything Giuliana should avoid—dominant, emotionally unavailable, and dangerously alluring. To him, she's nothing more than a tempting distraction, a woman who fits perfectly into his world of no-strings-attached passion. But when undeniable chemistry turns into something deeper, neither of them can resist the fire between them. Just when Giuliana believes she's found a chance at happiness, a dark secret from her past comes crashing into the present. In a moment of desperation, she makes a choice that shatters everything—forcing Mason to push her away in the cruelest way possible. Heartbroken and alone, she flees Paris… only for Mason to uncover the truth she never had the chance to tell him—she's carrying his child. Now, Mason must confront his own fears, fight for the woman he let go, and prove that love is stronger than pride. But will Giuliana be able to trust him again? Or will the secrets between them keep them apart forever? Will love be enough to rewrite their story? Find out in The Secret Between Us!
The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness
“A remarkable journey. I laughed. I cried. I got another cat.” —Lily Tomlin “Paula Poundstone is the funniest human being I have ever known.” —Peter Sagal, host of Wait Wait . . . Don’t Tell Me! and author of The Book of Vice “Is there a secret to happiness?” asks comedian Paula Poundstone. "I don’t know how or why anyone would keep it a secret. It seems rather cruel, really . . . Where could it be? Is it deceptively simple? Does it melt at a certain temperature? Can you buy it? Must you suffer for it before or after?” In her wildly and wisely observed book, the comedy legend takes on that most inalienable of rights—the pursuit of happiness. Offering herself up as a human guinea pig in a series of thoroughly unscientific experiments, Poundstone tries out a different get-happy hypothesis in each chapter of her data-driven search. She gets in shape with taekwondo. She drives fast behind the wheel of a Lamborghini. She communes with nature while camping with her daughter, and commits to getting her house organized (twice!). Swing dancing? Meditation? Volunteering? Does any of it bring her happiness? You may be laughing too hard to care. The Totally Unscientific Study of the Search for Human Happiness is both a story of jumping into new experiences with both feet and a surprisingly poignant tale of a single working mother of three children (not to mention dozens of cats, a dog, a bearded dragon lizard, a lop-eared bunny, and one ant left from her ant farm) who is just trying to keep smiling while living a busy life. The queen of the skepticism-fueled rant, Paula Poundstone stands alone in her talent for bursting bubbles and slaying sacred cows. Like George Carlin, Steve Martin, and David Sedaris, she is a master of her craft, and her comedic brilliance is served up in abundance in this book. As author and humorist Roy Blount Jr. notes, “Paula Poundstone deserves to be happy. Nobody deserves to be this funny.”
