Description

Even if we’re not athletes or die-hard sports fans, most of us understand the dynamics that shape teams, games, and championships. Relationships are a lot like sports, yet we tend to be confused, overwhelmed, and defeated by the process of finding our soul mate. Playing for a Championship Love compares basic concepts from the sports world to relationships, making them easy to understand. The author, Rev. Jabriel S. Ballentine, a rector at The Episcopal Church of St. John the Baptist in Orlando, Florida, shares his insight as a sports fan, priest, and hopeless romantic to remove the mystery from building successful relationship. Fr. Ballentine speaks from personal experience; he used the concept of “Championship Love” to finally meet the love of his life, after some “losing seasons,” and now she is his wife. Championship Love reveals what most people are doing wrong in relationships, how to redefine the game of love as we know it, and how to build a lasting marriage that honors God.

Description

When a high IQ is paired with the savvy street smarts of a kingpin, the streets get turned upside down. Thomas Richard is what some would call a genius. Born and raised in Inglewood, California, Thomas grew up in a Blood neighborhood and was somewhat fascinated by the gang lifestyle. His first cousin, Blast, was deeply involved with the Crenshaw Mafia Gangster Bloods and made sure that Thomas would never partake in that life. Thomas accepted that, but deep in his heart, he still felt he was a Blood. Now, Thomas works for a high-tech computer company and uses his high intelligence to excel at his job. While playing a slot machine app on his phone one day, he figures out a way to be able to rig slot machines to give out the maximum payout. After he tests his theory and becomes an instant millionaire, Thomas’s life changes instantly. Buying expensive jewels for his fiance and taking care of his family, he has more money than he can deal with. Keeping the secret of his get-rich-quick scheme is driving him crazy, and he decides to tell Blast—a mistake that turns his world inside out. Money, cars, lowriders, and the best of everything money can buy will lead to blackmail and eventually murder, all because Thomas can’t keep a secret.

“A timely, speculative thought experiment in perspective, privilege, and identity.” —Kirkus “The conceit behind Shusterman’s latest is truly unique. While it exhibits the author’s usual storytelling aplomb, it also manages to delve into more serious and timely subject matter, such as racism, sexism, and homophobia. Despite these heavy topics, the story still moves at a lively pace and, thanks to a zany sci-fi twist, manages to pack in a few laughs as well.” —Booklist All it takes is one hit on the football field, and suddenly Ash’s life doesn’t look quite the way he remembers it. Impossible though it seems, he’s been hit into another dimension—and keeps on bouncing through worlds that are almost-but-not-really his own. The changes start small, but they quickly spiral out of control as Ash slides into universes where he has everything he’s ever wanted, universes where society is stuck in the past…universes where he finds himself looking at life through entirely different eyes. And if he isn’t careful, the world he’s learning to see more clearly could blink out of existence… This high-concept novel from the National Book Award-winning and New York Times-bestselling author of the Arc of a Scythe series tackles the most urgent themes of our time, making this a must-buy for readers who are starting to ask big questions about their own role in the universe.

The sixth book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Field Party series—a Southern soap opera with football, cute boys, and pick-up trucks—from USA TODAY bestselling author Abbi Glines. Ezmita Ramos has always had big plans for her future, ones that would take her far outside the Lawton city limits. But with overprotective parents who control every part of her life, she’s worried that these dreams will never become reality. There’s nothing Asa Griffith wants more than to leave Lawton. It’s his senior year and he’s all set to attend Ole Miss in the fall, but a part of him also worries about what will happen if he leaves his mom living alone with his abusive father. After a huge fight with his father that escalates to violence, Asa is forced out of the house in the middle of the night with nowhere to go. When Asa and Ezmita cross paths that night, neither of them is in the mood to socialize. But they also feel this undeniable chemistry, one that gives them each hope that better days lie ahead. Then Asa is sent away to live with his grandmother for four months, only to return to Lawton and find out Ezmita has moved on. Still, the sparks between Asa and Ezmita linger. Neither of them has forgotten the way they felt seen by the other at their lowest points. Can Asa and Ezmita find their way back to each other?
