📚 Read Free Book 🔥 Read [DOCS] | Unbind (Alchemy #6) by Elodie Hart by Natalie
Why is life so unfair?
It wasn't fair when my dad lost his company and we were ruined.
It wasn't fair when my brother lost an eye, curtesy of the most brutish, unhinged bully at our school.
And it certainly wasn't fair when the same bully got out of prison, turned his fortunes around, and became a billionaire.
It's not fair when he shows up in my life again as the newest member of the exclusive sex club where I work.
But most grievous of all? While his soul may be rotten to the core, the guy looks like a fallen angel.
Adam
You know what they say. An eye for an eye...
But it seems I've got away too lightly.
Atoning for my wrongs is the only thing that allows me to face myself in the mirror each day.
I've atoned in more ways than anyone knows, but I've failed to make amends for my sins with the people who deserve it the most.
I join Alchemy to find the kind of absolution only the sins of the flesh can provide.
Instead, I find hatred burning in the eyes of the stunning brunette at the front desk.
She's a mirror reflecting every dark and loathsome part that still pulses within me, and she gives me a new purpose in life:
To become worthy of her.
Unbind is an enemies to lovers, billionaire, forced proximity, age gap romance set within the luxurious decadence of the Alchemy club for adults. It forms part of a series of interconnected standalones and has a monogamous HEA. 🔥 📚

Rule number one: Committing crimes is not a group project.
Rule number two: Don’t start fights. Finish them.
Rule number three: Don’t try to hustle a hustler.
I should have walked away. I should have ignored that sweet-talking cowboy.
Good things don’t happen to people like me. Good people stay away from people like me.
But that cowboy wouldn’t leave me alone.
He should have known better. After all, if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Carson James:
Rule number one: When you’re holding a grudge, don’t think about how attractive the object of your hatred is.
Rule number two: When you do think about how attractive she is, ignore it. It’ll go away. Probably.
Rule number three: When you’re stealing a car, it helps to have the keys.
That girl was trouble. I knew it from the moment I laid eyes on her bruised knuckles in the bar.
The last thing I expected was for her to show up on the ranch and bring that trouble to my front door.
I always liked playing with fire, but apparently, so did she. Only time will tell which one of us is going to get burned.
Fire Line is the final book in the Griffith Brothers series. Get ready for a romance jam-packed with lust, heat, and danger. 🔥 📚

📚 Read Free Book 🔥 Read [pdf] | Madness: Race and Insanity in a Jim Crow Asylum by Antonia Hylton by In the tradition of  The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, a page-turning 93-year history of Crownsville Hospital, one of the nation’s last segregated asylums, that  New York Times  bestselling author Clint Smith describes as “a book that left me breathless.”
On a cold day in March of 1911, officials marched twelve Black men into the heart of a forest in Maryland. Under the supervision of a doctor, the men were forced to clear the land, pour cement, lay bricks, and harvest tobacco. When construction finished, they became the first twelve patients of the state’s Hospital for the Negro Insane. For centuries, Black patients have been absent from our history books. Madness transports readers behind the brick walls of a Jim Crow asylum.
 
In Madness, Peabody and Emmy award-winning journalist Antonia Hylton tells the 93-year-old history of Crownsville Hospital, one of the last segregated asylums with surviving records and a campus that still stands to this day in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. She blends the intimate tales of patients and employees whose lives were shaped by Crownsville with a decade-worth of investigative research and archival documents. Madness chronicles the stories of Black families whose mental health suffered as they tried, and sometimes failed, to find safety and dignity. Hylton also grapples with her own family’s experiences with mental illness, and the secrecy and shame that it reproduced for generations.
 
As Crownsville Hospital grew from an antebellum-style work camp to a tiny city sitting on 1,500 acres, the institution became a microcosm of America’s evolving battles over slavery, racial integration, and civil rights. During its peak years, the hospital’s wards were overflowing with almost 2,700 patients. By the end of the 20th-century, the asylum faded from view as prisons and jails became America’s new focus.
 
In Madness, Hylton traces the legacy of slavery to the treatment of Black people’s bodies and minds in our current mental healthcare system. It is a captivating and heartbreaking meditation on how America decides who is sick or criminal, and who is worthy of our care or irredeemable.

Twenty-four-year-old Saeris Fane is good at keeping secrets. No one knows about the strange powers she possesses, or the fact that she has been picking pockets and stealing from the Undying Queen’s reservoirs for as long as she can remember.

"A beautiful exploration of a family . . . deeply moving." Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Hello Beautiful
“Mika, you sit at our feet all these hours and days, hearing us tell our tales. You have all these stories inside all the stories everyone in our family knows and all the stories everyone in our family tells. You write ’em in your books and show everyone who we are.”
So begins award-winning poet DéLana R. A. Dameron’s debut novel, Redwood Court. The baby of the family, Mika Tabor spends much of her time in the care of loved ones, listening to their stories and witnessing their struggles. On Redwood Court, the cul-de-sac in the all-Black working-class suburb of Columbia, South Carolina, where her grandparents live, Mika learns important lessons from the people who raise her: her exhausted parents, who work long hours at multiple jobs while still making sure their kids experience the adventure of family vacations; her older sister, who in a house filled with Motown would rather listen to Alanis Morrisette; her retired grandparents, children of Jim Crow, who realized their own vision of success when they bought their house on the Court in the 1960s, imagining it filled with future generations; and the many neighbors who hold tight to the community they’ve built, committed to fostering joy and love in an America so insistent on seeing Black people stumble and fall.
With visceral clarity and powerful prose, Dameron reveals the devastation of being made to feel invisible and the transformative power of being seen. Redwood Court is a celebration of extraordinary, ordinary people striving to achieve their own American dreams. 🔥 📚
