In March 1998, the Bradley family—Ron, Iva, and their children, Amy and Brad—boarded the Rhapsody of the Seas for a week-long Caribbean cruise. In the early hours of March 24, Amy Bradley—a pretty, athletic twenty-three-year-old—returned to the family's stateroom with Brad after dancing at the ship's nightclub.

How Cancer Improved My Life is Christine’s story in her own words: candid, faith-filled, and often laced with the humor that carried her through more than sixty rounds of chemotherapy.

My job, when you think about it, isn’t so different from a lot of people’s. The more old-fashioned crowd do still get hung up on the "killing people" part of it, I guess, but that’s a them problem: it’s been perfectly legal to take out lifers for ages. Besides, once ultrawealthy morons realized they had a way to live forever—limited resources be damned—there was only ever going to be one genuinely practical deterrent.

Forever was never part of the wager… but neither was losing their hearts. Elizabeth Bennet prides herself on her sharp wit and clever schemes—so when her best friend bets she can make the haughty Mr. Darcy fall in love with her, she accepts the challenge with confidence. After all, what could be more satisfying than breaking the heart of the man who insulted her at the Meryton Assembly?

You've felt it too. A coincidence too perfect to be chance. A knowing that arrives before the facts. A door closing... only to reveal the path you were meant to take. Part of you has always known there's something more at play. We've been trained to dismiss what we can't measure - to trust logic...

Linwood, kwiecień 1921. Kanonik Effingham dzwoni po duet detektywów-amatorów, Camberwella i Chaneya: w kościelnym sejfie zieje pustka, zniknęły cztery skarby–złoty kielich z pateną, iluminowana Godzinka i Ewangelie na purpurowym pergaminie.

There was zero chance of seeing the Armani-clad stranger again. I didn't even catch his name—just that he was the hottest mistake of my life. But the universe? It loves a plot twist. Because Mr. Elevator Guy...He's Nick Ashford. My broody as hell brand-new boss.

In clear, concise, and noble language, Allen overturns the conventional view of reality—that human beings are nothing more than creatures of circumstance and environment. Instead, he reminds us, everything around us, good and bad, arises from the disposition of our hearts and minds. “The visible is sustained by the invisible,” he writes, reminding us of the central fact of our existence: that what we think and believe forms the core of our habits, character, and even fate.

In his 15th book, the author of As A Man Thinketh lays out the eight core characteristics required for growing lifelong prosperity. For each of these pillars, Allen explores the component parts of the pillar, building up a solid foundation for your existence that can weather any storm and emerge from it better and stronger.
