Escribí Las venas para difundir ideas ajenas y experiencias propias que quizá s ayuden un poquito, en su realista medida, a despejar los interrogantes que nos persiguen desde siempre: ¿ es Amé rica Latina una regió n del mundo condenada a la humillació n y a la pobreza? ¿ Condenada por quié n? ¿ Culpa de Dios, culpa de la naturaleza? ¿ No será la desgracia un producto de la historia, hecha por los hombres y que por los hombres puede, por lo tanto, ser deshecha? Este libro fue escrito con la intenció n de divulgar ciertos hechos que la historia oficial, historia contada por los vencedores, esconde o miente. Sé que pudo resultar sacrí lego que este manual de divulgació n hable de economí a polí tica en el estilo de una novela de amor o de piratas. Creo que no hay vanidad en la alegrí a de comprobar, al cabo del tiempo, que Las venas no ha sido un libro mudo.

There are a thousand books about eating disorders, taking everything from gender to age into account. But they have a habit of assuming that you're neurotypical, and that your brain works in a very specific way.

Not exactly helpful if yours doesn't!

In this essential self-help guide, Rachel Clark shares what she's learned from her own experiences as an autistic and ADHD young person with anorexia, and how you can use it for your own recovery. She explores how eating disorders can be a coping mechanism for the stress of a neurotypical world, and how autism can both create the ideal environment for an eating disorder to develop, but also provide key tools to overcome it. Practical exercises help you get to grips with your ED in a way that suits your brain, and advice from direct experience supports you in advocating for yourself and creating an environment where you can save your own life on your own terms.

Willow Knightley has just been through it with her ex-mooch of a boyfriend. But sadly, he's just the latest in a long string of men (starting at birth) who didn't treat her right.

She decides her only recourse is to give up on men forever.

The problem is, her friend/acquaintance/one-time bodyguard, member of the Nightingale Investigations & Security team, Gabriel Stark, has targeted her as His One.

Gabe's been through it at the hands of women too, so he knows exactly what he wants.

And he wants Willow.

Willow states her case against them being an us, but she doesn't count on the fact that not only does Gabe love a challenge, he lives for them.

Up against an onslaught from a man who rinses his own whiskers out of the sink, Willow might not stand a chance.

But then, while the Angels are trying to figure out what's got one of their informants very jittery, she gets a hint that there are demons in Gabe's history, and she has to know.

The bets are on...

And luck favors a Stark.

Un viaje de último momento. Un acompañante inesperado. Días de pasión que lo cambiarán todo.

Cuando Emma Holker regresa a la oficina en Nochebuena, jamás imagina que invitar a su enigmático jefe, Joshua Reid, a pasar la Navidad con su familia cambiará su vida para siempre. Lo que comienza como un gesto amistoso termina con ambos atrapados en medio de una tormenta de nieve, obligándolos a rendirse a la atracción que sienten el uno por el otro.

Joshua no es solo el multimillonario frío y calculador que todos creen conocer. Detrás del empresario implacable se esconde un hombre vulnerable... y un deseo contenido que amenaza con desbordarse. Y Emma, que siempre juró que mantendría las distancias, descubrirá que rendirse a la pasión podría poner en riesgo mucho más que su carrera.

De Nueva York a Vermont, y de ahí a Venecia, entre noches apasionadas y promesas que ninguno de los dos se atreve a pronunciar, Emma y Joshua deberán decidir si lo que empezó como una aventura pasajera podría convertirse en algo que dure mucho más que una Navidad.

Porque a veces la pasión más peligrosa es también el amor más inesperado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A last-minute trip. An unexpected companion. Days of passion that will change everything.

When Emma Holker returns to the office on Christmas Eve, she never imagines that inviting her enigmatic boss, Joshua Reid, to spend Christmas with her family will change her life forever. What begins as a friendly gesture ends with both of them trapped in the middle of a snowstorm, forcing them to surrender to the attraction they feel for each other.

And Emma, who always swore she would keep her distance, will discover that giving in to passion could risk much more than her career.

From New York to Vermont, and then to Venice, through passionate nights and promises neither dares to speak aloud, Emma and Joshua must decide if what began as a fleeting affair could become something that lasts far beyond Christmas.

She was always the one...

Gracie Reynolds and I have been best friends since we were kids. She's smart, kind, funny, beautiful, and one of the best parts of my life. When Gracie walks into a room, people notice.

I always notice.

But when she moved across the world with a guy I despised, it felt like I'd lost a piece of myself.

I missed her in ways I still can't explain.

Now she's back--and she's crashing at my place for a couple of months while she figures things out. She's single and ready for a fresh start. I've always had her back, and that hasn't changed.

What has changed? The way that she looks at me. The way I can't stop looking at her. So, when Gracie makes me a once-in-a-lifetime proposition--obviously, I'm all in. But this isn't your average gray area...it's a full-on, sweat-inducing, five chili pepper detour we never meant to take.

Gracie has big dreams though, and I'd never be the guy to hold her back. Even if all I want is to be the reason that she stays.
