A passionate and powerful romance featuring a transgender man and an ex-Orthodox woman who find each other through their devotion to art, and fall in love despite all odds, from bestselling author Victoria Lee “A sensual love story about art and passion . . . emotional and heart-aching.”—Ashley Poston, New York Times bestselling author of The Dead Romantics Elisheva Cohen has just returned to New York after almost a decade away. The wounds of her past haven’t fully healed, but four years of sobriety and a scholarship to study photography with art legend Wyatt Cole are signs of good things to come, right? They could be, as long as Ely resists self-sabotage. She’s lucky enough to hit it off with a handsome himbo her first night out in the city. But the morning after their mind-blowing hookup, reality comes knocking. When Wyatt Cole walks into the classroom, Ely realizes the man she just spent the night with, the man whose name she couldn’t hear over the loud club music, is her teacher. Everyone in the art world is obsessed with Wyatt Cole. He’s immensely talented and his notoriously reclusive personal life makes him even more compelling. But behind closed doors, Wyatt’s past is a painful memory. After coming out as transgender, Wyatt was dishonorably discharged from the military and disowned by his family. Since these traumatic experiences, Wyatt has worked hard for his sobriety and his flourishing art career. He can’t risk it all for Ely, no matter how attracted to her he is or how bad he feels about insisting she drop his class in exchange for a strictly professional mentorship. Wyatt can help with her capstone photography project, but he cannot, under any circumstances, fall in love with her in the process. Through the lens of her camera, Ely must confront the reason she left New York in the first place: the Orthodox community that raised her, then shunned her because of her substance abuse. Along the way, Wyatt’s walls begin to break down, and each artist fights for what’s right in front of them—a person who sees them for all that they are and a love that could mean more than they ever imagined possible.

Shots in the Dark available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. “The fascinating story of the 1963 deaths of Boston mobster Rocco Balliro’s girlfriend and her son in a police shootout . . . a real page-turner.”—Dennis N. Griffin, bestselling author of The Rise and Fall of a “Casino” Mobster On a frigid winter night in early 1963, Rocco Anthony Balliro and a pair of associates stormed a darkened apartment on the outskirts of Boston and were immediately embroiled in a deadly shootout with several unseen assailants. Unbeknownst to Rocco at the time, the men who returned his fire were several Boston police officers, waiting in ambush for him. It was, as Rocco later described it, a hastily planned rescue mission that went downhill in a hurry. In the aftermath, his beloved girlfriend and her toddler son lay dead. “Author Daniel Zimmerman, the woman’s nephew, was granted exclusive access to Balliro in prison and met with him over the course of 2 years to hear his side of the story. This book, which chronicles the events of that night, Balliro’s trial, and his attempt to clear his name is a true crime story with a local twist.”—Patch

Download and read online ebook A Shot in the Dark write by Solon Duane Lewis. This book was released on 2014-10-28. A Shot in the Dark available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. The book is the true life story of Solon B. Lewis, a County Rural Policeman, Deputy Sheriff, and South Carolina Governors Officer in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s in Marion County South Carolina. Solon was shot 2 times in the line of duty, was forced to kill an armed robber, and faced many personal and professional tragedies in his life because he fought to clean out his community of organized crime, bootleggers, murderers, and robbers. This is a fascinating true story of one man's life during the Prohibition era and behind the scenes look at local, county, and state politics. Solon Lewis captured many high profile criminals of the time using the art of fingerprint science. Solon became a fingerprint identification expert at a time when the FBI was just experimenting with the science. Solon Lewis would compile over 525 fingerprints of known criminals from the area, and he would be called upon by the FBI and other law enforcement officials to help them solve cases. The book covers some of the most interesting cases Lewis and other officers investigated in the rural farm communities of Marion County, SC. I am the grandson of Solon B. Lewis Sr., and as a child, I would hear many fascinating stories from my father and his brothers about Solon's shootouts with criminals and all of the tragedies he faced in his life. My research provides official documents, letters, and actual newspaper articles that supports this true story. This is the life of a man faced with corruption, political fighting, and crime of that era.
