Book excerpt: This book focuses on six women who are often seen as particularly tough-minded: Simone Weil (1909-1943, French philosopher), Hannah Arendt (1906-1975, German-American philosopher), Mary McCarthy (1912-1989, American writer), Susan Sontag (1933-2004, American writer), Diane Arbus (1923-1971, American photographer, and Joan Didion (1934, American writer). It traces the careers of these women and their challenges to the pre-eminence of empathy as the ethical posture from which to examine pain.

Book excerpt: From the author of the New York Times bestselling Bad Boys novels comes the second book in a dark, sexy contemporary trilogy. He’s a fighter who never loses, but is he tough enough to win her heart? There was a time when I had everything–a wonderful family, a bright future. Love. But all that was taken away in a single night, torn from me like flesh from bone. Since then, I’ve hidden away in my second-choice job as a makeup artist. But I prefer it that way, actually. I’m comfortable in the shadows, where no one can see my scars. Kiefer Rogan literally took my breath away the moment I met him. MMA champion-turned-actor, notorious playboy, charming to a fault—he’s everything I vowed to avoid. But he just wouldn’t stop until I opened up and let him in. Maybe I should’ve tried harder to resist him. Maybe I shouldn’t have fallen in love with him. Because I, of all people, know that everyone has secrets. Scars. And that they’re usually ugly and painful and destructive to the people we love most. I just never guessed that they could be deadly, too.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in the 1950s, these beautifully illustrated stories for young readers recount the adventures of the Tatums, a backwoods family, and their puppy, Tough Enough. Mainly set on a farm in Appalachia, the tales are noteworthy for their realistic portrayal of rural life. This collection features the first three books from the Tatum family series: Beanie: It's Beanie's birthday, and he gets the best gift of all: a new puppy, Tough Enough. The two new friends find more than they bargained for when they head off to the hills to go bear-hunting. Tough Enough: The Tatum family dog is a mischievous creature, but surely he can't be responsible for the farm's missing hens? Tough Enough's Trip: When the Tatums set off on a long trip to visit relatives, Tough Enough can't bear to be left behind and stows away in the family truck. He and the Tatums drive past villages and towns, farms and factories, and across rivers on their way to the ocean, meeting a host of lost animals along the way.

Book excerpt: When her father’s health falters, Shae Harriman leaps into action, taking the reins of his construction empire and spearheading Sullivan’s Creek, the company’s most ambitious project yet. Armed with knowledge but lacking in experience, she faces immediate pushback from her skeptical crews. Enter Ned Collier, the larger-than-life entertainer with a secret mission: to secure a safer home for his mother amid the chaos of his superstar lifestyle. Strapped for cash and determined to keep his struggles hidden, he insists on micromanaging the project, much to Shae’s frustration. As they navigate the challenges of construction and the complexities of their personal lives, their clashes fuel a magnetic attraction. Despite his penny-pinching and her construction crises, they find themselves drawn closer, the tension between them crackling with unspoken desire. But can their fiery chemistry withstand the pressures of the job and the weight of their secrets? Their only way forward may be the hardest—to open up to each other and unlock the sizzling connection that just might be the key to their hearts and future.

Book excerpt: Tough Enough By: Maria Rose Born in a Vietnamese prison, the son of a prostitute and an American soldier, Asa Greyeyes suffers through the most difficult of beginnings. From the start, he must fight to better his life, to survive. Tough Enough follows Asa’s single-minded efforts to protect his “mother” Emma and earn their freedom and a peaceful, comfortable life. On their journey from Vietnam to America to New Mexico to that life, they tangle with fight promoters, crime lords, soldiers, gun runners, and drug smugglers, but even a few of those have compassion and offer help. Asa is repeatedly faced with choices between right and wrong, but having studied the Bible with Emma while in prison, he has a firm understanding of what is it to be a good man, to be fair. Asa Greyeyes is clever, loyal, caring, and determined, but is he tough enough to earn the life he wants for him and Emma after so many years of not really knowing where he belongs? Any incidents in this book related to recent current events is purely coincidental.
