What if love, honor, and faithfulness began long before you ever laid eyes on your future spouse? As a teenager, Amber committed to wait faithfully for the husband God had chosen and set apart for her. She chose to save her heart and all physical affection for him alone. In the waiting, she grew closer to Jesus and fell more in love with Him, serving Him with joy and abandon. Then, at thirty-six years of age, Amber met her prince, the one God had been saving and preparing just for her. As their love story unfolded, she came to see that truly, when we trust in God and wait on Him, He exceeds our greatest hopes and dreams and does more than we can imagine! This book you are holding is her story (much of which was written when she was still single) and is filled with encouragement to the one who is waiting and the one who desires to wait but is unsure of what that looks like. It also offers encouragement to the one who hasn’t waited, but who longs to give up the world’s way of finding true love and discover the wonder and beauty of letting God unfold His story for them. And most of all, it’s for the one who longs for Jesus to be their first love. Read Amber’s testimony of waiting faithfully for her future husband and be amazed at the goodness and faithfulness of God. As He was to her, He will be to you ... faithful.
The terrifying finale is a doozy, and Ky is a capable (can you say muay thai?), whip-smart, snarky joy. Readers will follow her anywhere, no matter how dangerous. Dark and thrilling." —Kirkus When her FBI agent father is framed for murder, Kylene is forced to move in with her grandfather, back to the small town that turned its back on her, and the boy who betrayed her. All Ky cares about is clearing her father’s name, but someone won’t let her forget the photo scandal that drove her away two years ago. As the threats gain momentum, Ky finds an unlikely ally in the rookie FBI agent sent to keep an eye on her. Determined to expose the town's hidden skeletons, Ky unwittingly thrusts herself into a much bigger plot. They thought she’d forgive and forget. They’re about to learn they messed with the wrong girl. "A quick-witted heroine, a fast-paced plot, and a twisty whodunit mystery kept me on my toes. Fans of Riverdale will adore Kylene Danners and devour this suspenseful story." —USA Today bestselling author K.A. Tucker At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Pretty Little Liars meets Riverdale in Don't Say a Word, a standout YA mystery from indie-pub favorite Amber Lynn Natusch. Kylene Danners’s ex-FBI agent father is in prison for murder and she’s hell-bent on getting him out. But trying to investigate in the small town where a defensive lineman is a hero no matter who he tries to kill and the girl who gets him locked up is public enemy number one is dangerous. Dark secrets are everywhere in Jasperville—the kind Ky can’t walk away from. When rookie FBI agent Cedric Dawson returns to town to finish an open investigation, he goes undercover at her high school—as her ex. Determined to keep her from interfering, Dawson’s plan backfires after Ky gets an anonymous call about missing girls officially labeled as runaways—runaways that didn’t really run away at all. Because dead girls can’t run. And they don’t say a word. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
More than eighty designs--iconic, archaic, quotidian, and taboo--that have defined the arc of human reproduction. While birth often brings great joy, making babies is a knotty enterprise. The designed objects that surround us when it comes to menstruation, birth control, conception, pregnancy, childbirth, and early motherhood vary as oddly, messily, and dramatically as the stereotypes suggest. This smart, image-rich, fashion-forward, and design-driven book explores more than eighty designs--iconic, conceptual, archaic, titillating, emotionally charged, or just plain strange--that have defined the relationships between people and babies during the past century. Each object tells a story. In striking images and engaging text, Designing Motherhood unfolds the compelling design histories and real-world uses of the objects that shape our reproductive experiences. The authors investigate the baby carrier, from the Snugli to BabyBjörn, and the (re)discovery of the varied traditions of baby wearing; the tie-waist skirt, famously worn by a pregnant Lucille Ball on I Love Lucy, and essential for camouflaging and slowly normalizing a public pregnancy; the home pregnancy kit, and its threat to the authority of male gynecologists; and more. Memorable images--including historical ads, found photos, and drawings--illustrate the crucial role design and material culture plays throughout the arc of human reproduction. The book features a prologue by Erica Chidi and a foreword by Alexandra Lange.
