Her first desire / by Maxwell, Cathy.;
As a member of the local Logical Men's Society, Ned Thurlowe prides himself on thinking clearly and calmly at all times. And it's clear that the meeting place of the society--a local tavern--is his even if the men have turned it to shambles. But Ned's claim is challenged Gemma Estep, who's announced she's decided to turn it into some sort of respectable tea garden for the local ladies. Ned challenges Gemma, and in doing so behaves most illogically, for though he wants to dismiss her, he also can't help but desire her. Gemma has had enough of men telling her what to do, and she's vowed to make her own way in the world. And Ned Thurlowe is ruining her plans. Not only has he laid claim to her property, pitting them in a heated fight for its ownership, he's also arousing in her feelings she's never sensed before. And although they argue, they quickly discover they have more in common than they'd each ever dreamed--could their disagreement be turning into desire?

The newsman in Luke Blackburn shuns the spotlight when he and his old friend, now the county mayor in Key West, discover stranded Cuban refugees during a fishing outing turned tragic, but he is part of the story that goes out on the wire. When Corinne, his lover from many years ago, happens to read it and reaches out, the news she bears will disrupt his carefully orchestrated life and threatens to blow up his marriage. His wife, Maureen, lace-curtain Irish while he was from Appalachia, is a brilliant scholar who is also bipolar and fragile. Luke has never told her about his youthful passion or the infant that Corinne, barely out of her teenage years, gave up at birth when they split and he went to war. Maureen's illness has meant that she and Luke have foregone having children of their own. In Luke's mind, she cannot find out about Corinne or the child. Meanwhile, in Miami, where Luke works as the managing editor at a newspaper struggling to survive in the digital era, his star investigative reporter is slowly piecing together a blockbuster story zeroing in on the corrupting influence of cartel money in south Florida. The evidence she has uncovered links a flashy real estate developer, a legacy of murky land dealings, and the stink of political corruption in Luke's own refuge, Key West"--

Anatomy of desire : five secrets to create connection and cultivate passion / by Jamea, Emily,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Combining over fifteen years of clinical experience with her groundbreaking research into the science of flow, Dr. Emily Jamea's Anatomy of Desire delivers a fresh perspective on the untapped potential of our sex lives, intimate partner connections, and personal wellbeing. "Dr. Emily Jamea makes difficult issues simple and accessible via her central tenet that expressing our authentic sexual selves is not about venturing into the unknown but rather searching within ourselves and tapping into our innate, albeit uncultivated, sexual potential. Dr. Emily guides us on this journey with care and curiosity"-Ian Kerner, PhD LMFT, NY Times best-selling author of She Comes First The experience of effortlessness, total absorption, and loss of space and time are feelings that everyone wants to enjoy while making love. However, regardless of everyone's desire for better sex, passion and sexual satisfaction tend to diminish in longer-term relationships. This is a problem because studies consistently show that sexual satisfaction is key to relationship satisfaction. Great sex is something we all deserve. As a seasoned sex and relationship therapist, Dr. Emily Jamea has developed a unique approach for boosting sexual desire and pleasure. Anatomy of Desire identifies five secrets (sensuality, curiosity, adaptability, vulnerability, and attunement) that help her clients transform sex from sub-par to extraordinary. Woven through each secret is the science of "flow state." Drawing from her first-of-its-kind published research, Dr. Emily teaches readers how to apply the science of flow to get the sex they want despite the challenges of today's modern world. Clients, workshop participants, and hundreds of thousands of social media followers have already benefited from her approach. Dr. Emily Jamea's debut book, Anatomy of Desire: Five Secrets to Create Connection and Cultivate Passion makes her novel approach available to everyone"--
