Why the silence? We're All Like This. We all think about sexuality. We all wonder. We hope. And yet we're still strangely silent on the topic. The greatest creative force in human life has become one of our biggest taboos, despite the fact that culture is immersed in sexual images. Marriage and family therapist Steven Ing knows all about the silence that imprisons sexuality. He has witnessed the dysfunction that comes from not being able to talk about our sexuality in a rational, sensitive and intelligent way. "We're All Like This" aims to start a healthy conversation by taking readers through all stages of a person's life, from infancy through the twilight years; and it illuminates the human sexual needs we all share through each stage. Suitable for all ages, with beautiful photography corresponding to each of the 24 stages, "We're All Like This" will start the discussion and transform the dialogue from uncomfortable and uninformed to self-assured and thoughtful. In contrast to the "sex ed" model of anatomy, physiology and how to avoid disease, "We're All Like This" makes thinking and talking about human sexuality truly human again.

Summer, 1871: the worst storm in living memory is battering the remote border town of Tres Cruces, flooding rivers, snapping telegraph lines, wrecking the ferry. Stranded miners and ranchers huddle in the town's leaky inns, fretting while their meager supplies dwindle. Only Diana Clayborn remains unafraid. Forced into prostitution at an early age, Diana has been stranded her entire life, with an iron heart and acid sarcasm her only defenses against the brutality of her profession. For her, dying in a flood would be no worse than living the nightmare of her life. When a mysterious drifter named Moreno asks Diana to help rob the town's only bank, she feels she has nothing to lose, but Moreno's daring scheme of misdirection and guile has a potentially fatal flaw. Diana must decide which is stronger, her common sense or her desperation, and she comes to understand that no matter what she chooses, the price of her freedom may ultimately be calculated in blood.

Mouse Watkins is the leader of the Bad Apples, the funkiest old school soul band in St. Louis. For twenty years, he's been laying down smoking grooves, tasty rhythms, and gutbucket funk in dance clubs up and down the Mississippi, always one break away from the Big Time. But Mouse is starting to wonder if his break will ever come. His best friend has disappeared with the Bad Apples' last dollar, his tour van won't start, and a groupie stole his only winter coat at the band's last show. Now, with no stomach for starting over (again) and a bleak winter on the horizon, Mouse washes up in East St. Louis, exactly where he started two decades ago. His dreams have come to nothing. Or have they? Give the Drummer Some is an odyssey into the heart of pop music and the soul of St. Louis, a book about the choices all artists, even great artists, have to make when the brilliant spotlight of stardom fails to shine on them.

Give the Drummer Some

When legendary fashion designer Yves Saint Laurent dies, his longtime lover and business partner Pierre Bergé announces that he will auction off their vast private art collection for charity. To celebrate this once-in-a-lifetime event, the Grand Palais in Paris hosts a public exhibition of the rare masterpieces, but the celebration ends abruptly when one of the paintings is stolen! An anonymous tip leads police to American war photographer Luke Johnson, whose murky connections to Saint Laurent's past make him all the more suspect. And when Luke's friend Benoît is kidnapped and the kidnappers demand the stolen painting as ransom, it seems the only person in Paris who doesn't think Luke is an art thief is Luke himself. Now, Luke must rescue Benoît while dodging the police and matching wits with the inscrutable mastermind who stole the painting in the first place. And everyone Luke meets wants some kind of revenge, including his ex-girlfriend! In Paris, the only thing as romantic as falling in love is getting even.
