A breathtaking love story about passion, devotion, desperation, and hope.
Victoria Carlisle, a 32 year old business woman, who has endured the horrors of an abusive marriage, lives what on the outside looks like the American dream. But even with a mansion, luxury car, and every material possession one could imagine, her emotional voids are simply too large to fill.
Victoria's mundane daily routine is derailed one night when she finds herself battling an intense physical connection that she feels after a private encounter she shares with her sister's boyfriend. They try to avoid each other, but their attraction is undeniable.
Living a double life of paranoia and fear, Victoria must make a life altering decision: Remain in a passionless marriage where she has financial stability or risk
everything and follow her heart.
This is not your average love story. It is the story of a woman who was married, very young, to a man who became her warden more than her husband. Frank is a serial abuser. Worse, their youngest son treats his mother with the same disdain as his father. The older children are ignorant of their mother's trials, as Frank's abuse becomes more violent with each passing year.
While wealthy, their money comes from criminal industries – drugs, girls, etc. – and Victoria knows that Frank has men who will be just as willing to hurt her as he is. She is virtually trapped in the relationship from hell — and then she meets Collin.
Younger and vibrant, Collin is the balm to Victoria's soul; and she is drawn to him like a moth to a flame. Yet she knows how dangerous an affair would be should her husband find out.
This saga is a gripping, gritty, sensual, and sexy read that you won't put down!
After suffering from a severe emotional breakdown, Victoria Carlisle is treated at the Bergen Valley mental hospital in New Jersey. She leaves the hospital with the hopes of a brighter future. Victoria has experienced love that she never knew existed with Collin Turner, her handsome, young, estranged lover, although to her, he was so much more. After separating for months, she believes that Collin still feels the same, but they struggle to overcome the obstacles that keep them from being together.
While house hunting, Victoria reconnects with an old friend, Preston James, who attempts to steal her heart. She is suddenly distracted by his presence, but deep down she knows what she wants.
Emerging in more ways than one, Victoria explores a racier sex life, the opportunity to travel, finding her independence, and falling in love again. Wanting nothing more than a second chance at happiness, Victoria desperately holds on to her relationship, but at what cost? It becomes a rollercoaster ride as she hoards secrets and battles with jealousy and many of the repressive demons of her past. At times she feels as though her life is a dream come true, but at other times she fears that she may be spiraling toward repeating history.
Can Victoria free herself from her dark past so she can finally open her heart to her one true love?
Diamond Love is the second installment of the epically emotional Moonstone Dreams Series.
This riveting sequel of Moonstone Dreams, follows Victoria and Collin as they struggle to find themselves and their place in each others' lives, while trying to avoid detection by Frank and his many criminal friends.
Victoria awakens in a mental hospital with amnesia and we are witness to her remembering, and reliving, the agonizing events that caused her to snap. Intense and compelling, this is a woman's journey to find herself and to hopefully break herself – finally – out of the constant cycles of abuse.
However, even as she pulls herself together, her world begins to spiral further out of control; and she wonders if the constant upheavals and tragedies will bring her closer to, or push her farther from, the people she holds most dear.
Still gritty and gripping, Miotto will make you sweat, scream, and squirm as the couple deal with their relationship and its dangerous implications should they be found out. This romantic suspense will keep you guessing throughout, and has an ending that will make your jaw drop.
After enduring the darkest hours of her life, Victoria barely escapes the grisly situation. She is left with must more than just physical scars. She is starting from the bottom to bring her life back together and trying to be there for her loved ones who all seem to need her at the same time. Victoria isn't sure if she can handle the tremendous weight, while continuing to heal her own wounds as well. Some of her closest ties begin to unravel and she doesn't know if the constant tragedies will make her relationships stronger or tear them apart.
In the riveting third installment to the Moonstone Dreams series, Victoria has succeeded in pushing all those close to her away, including her precious Collin. Except for one person, who may very well be more dangerous than Frank or all his cronies combined.
The situation with Frank comes to a head, as Victoria and Collin are trying to move forward with their relationship; but Frank has other ideas. What ensues are some of the most violent, gripping, and emotional scenes that I've read – ever. As I followed Victoria's valiant journey to put her life back together, I was humbled by her tenacity and willingness to do whatever it took to put the overcome the enormous emotional and physical scars and start life over again in order to provide – once and for all – a peaceful, caring, and loving home for herself, the love of her life, and her children.
The action is not stop, I read it straight through – while on the edge of my seat – just so I could find out exactly what would happen with Victoria and Collin. And boy was I surprised where this book went! Twists and turns that kept me guessing throughout, also kept me reading until sunup!
This series is a must read for any fan of romantic thrillers. I can guarantee that I will be re-reading these three books before the next installment is released – Hell, I may re-read them just because I can!
No spoilers – I'd ruin it if I gave you any further details. Suffice it to say that I am anxiously awaiting the next installment in the series, as I cannot WAIT to find out what happens next to Victoria, Collin and their extended family.
Come join us at 8:30pm tonight – November 11, 2014.

Title: Heart of Light
Author: T.K. Leigh
Release Date: August 25, 2014
Genre: Romantic Suspense
Twelve years ago, Jolene's adoptive mother died. Twelve years ago, a man showed up at Jolene's door and promised to take care of her. Twelve years ago, Jolene was happy.
Then it all changed…
Jolene Bergio has spent the last twelve years of her life asking one question… Why? Why was she left in the custody of a man who would sell her each and every night to the highest bidder? After a few years, she shut off, giving up hope that anyone would ever find her. Until her luck changed one night and she escaped. Twelve years later, she finally feels something she hasn't felt in a long time… Free.
Scared that her past will find her unexpectedly, she hides away in a rented beach house, trying to distance herself from everyone… Until Dr. Cameron Bowen enters her world and slowly tears down the walls that she has built up over the past twelve years of her captivity. Jolene begins to learn to love again.
And trust again.
But when a man from Jolene's past emerges, will she be able to keep her identity hidden? When lies are told and hearts are broken, will the truth surface in time to bring Jolene back from the shadows that threaten to expose who she really is?
Heart of Light is a captivating story of love, strength, and survival.
This book is one emotionally disturbing, but uplifting journey. We met Dr. Cameron Bowen in Ms. Leigh's 'Beautiful Mess' series. Unable to bring himself to live in the beach house Olivia occupied, his friend rents the empty home to Jolene; a woman on the run from human traffickers!
Jolene trusts no one and is terribly afraid to befriend anyone, lest they get in the crosshairs of the slavers who will stop at nothing to recover their 'property'. She's spent the last few years as a slave and abused in ways no one wants to imagine. The problem? Someone – one of her admirers – sees her fleeing and follows her flight from captivity.
Is anyone safe? Can Cameron overcome his broken heart and love again? Will Jolene open up to the wonderful Dr. Bowen – who specializes in helping women overcome the type of abuse she's suffered? Or will Jolene be snatched and succumb to the evil forces stalking her.

"Why don't you like being touched?" he asked quietly in a bold move.
Jolene stopped dead in her tracks, glaring at him. "I just don't, alright?" she hissed, her voice raised. "And it's none of your fucking business why I act the way I do. I see what you're trying to do, Doctor." She spun around and stormed back toward the house, wanting to get far away from his prying, yet consoling, eyes.
"What, Jolene? What am I doing? I just want to get to know you. I want to spend time with you, and I need to know why certain things set you off so that I don't do them!" He ran along the shore, catching up to her, stopping short when he almost reached out and grabbed her arm to force her to talk to him.
Feeling him approach behind her, she reeled around. The expression on her face was fierce. "You've been a therapist for far too long. You need to get it out of your head that you can help me." The ocean wind whipped her hair in front of her face and her voice rose in anger. "You can't! No one can! So just stop! Stop taking an interest in me! Stop with the whole nice guy act because, based on my experience, that's all it is!" she cried through her tears, her voice becoming barely audible. "A fucking act."
She closed her eyes and inhaled deeply before opening them, the pain of what she had experienced the past decade of her life visible in the look of unease on her face. She took a step closer, her eyes remaining glued to Cam's.
"You show up on my doorstep acting like my savior when the world has gone to shit. You tell me how you'll look after me and protect me. And you know what those are?" She could see the hurt that her words were causing him, but she didn't care.
"Lies, Cam," she said quietly. "Just lies. You say you'll help me and watch over me, but you'll turn. I can't… I can't go through that again. Please. I beg you. Just stay away from me." She spun around and began walking briskly away from him.
"You don't have to do this, Jolene!" he shouted, running to catch up with her. "You don't have to choose fear."
"Yes, I do," she insisted, turning to face him once more. "It's the only way that he won't…"
"You can choose me instead," he interrupted.
Her breath caught at his unexpected reply. "Cam, I…" She trailed off, hiding her tear-filled eyes.
"Don't let your fear control you, Jolene," he implored, his voice soft. He brought his body close to hers. "Please, choose me, not fear."

Involuntary Commitment Without Appropriate Diagnosis?
in News
On this episode, we discuss how/why people are placed in Coalinga State Hospital, a penitentiary-style forensic facility. Were the 1500 involuntarily committed men at CSH given proper evaluations before they were involuntarily committed for life?
Why wasn't there appropriate psychological testing, such as a structured screening instrument, to determine whether they had a mental illness? More importantly, how can anyone be deemed a Sexually Violent Predator (SVP) without such a test, as required by law?
We'll delve into an important topic: diagnosis. Why is it that hundreds of these men have never had their day in court? Should they even be in a treatment facility before an official judgement against them? Why does diagnosis/treatment cost $200,000 per person per year, even for those who are not deemed SVPs? Is CSH worth the nearly $4 billion spent in just 8 years? With the country in financial crisis, how can we justify the expense at facilities like this one, which diagnose/treat under 1500 people?
As far as we've come in the US, why are we detaining the so-called mentally ill in 20 different states? Is this the start of a dangerous trend, where anyone can be called crazy & get locked up? Where are civil rights in all of this?
Join us for this important show as we learn more about life inside Coalinga State Hospital.

Diagnosis: Hood Disease #PTSD
in Politics
Wait a minute. "Hood Disease"? The CDC (Center for Disease Control) actually made that term official? What is "hood disease" you ask? It's something that the CDC estimates that 30% of U.S. youths suffer from a form of post traumatic stress disorder that occurs from frequent trauma. Gun violence experienced in certain neighborhoods is equivalent to gunfire in war. It is said to be the cause of a lot of innter city youth not learning.
Do you agree that living in certain bad neighborhoods is equivalent to Fallujah during war time? Does the priority to survive, stress in not having money, and struggle to eat healthy cause PTSD?
Owner of her own counseling and consulting service, Brandy J. Flynn, returns to T2Q to give her expert opinion on the validity of the diagnosis as well as discuss other mental health topics.

BEIRUT: The U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees denied reports that it was seeking to naturalize Syrian refugees Wednesday.
On July 9, Al-Liwaa newspaper had quoted Social Affairs Minister Rashid Derbas as saying the UNHCR had requested the naturalization of 100,000 Syrian refugees in Lebanon.
"The issue of naturalization is subject only to the full authority of the Lebanese government and is something UNHCR has never proposed," a statement from the agency said.
Earlier, Derbas had also denied receiving reports that the UNHCR was preparing to settle Syrian refugees.
"I haven't received any report about UNHCR's intention to settle 100,000 Syrian refugees," Derbas said in a statement published by state-run National News Agency.
"I was only replying to a journalist who said he has learned about this intention on the UNHCR website," Derbas added in reference to quotes attributed to him by the local newspaper Al-Liwaa.
World is becoming numb to the needs of refugees, UNHCR says

UK GDP: British economy growing at fastest rate since 2007
Official figures show UK economy grew 0.7% in the fourth quarter bringing the annual growth rate to 1.9%
Ben Chu
Ben Chu is The Independent's Economics Editor. Previously he was the newspaper's chief leader writer.
Tuesday 28 January 2014
Full year growth in 2013 was the strongest in six years, but the pace of the recovery slowed in the final quarter, the Office for National Statistics has reported.
GDP grew by 0.7 per cent in the final three months of 2013, a touch down on the 0.8 per cent recorded in the third quarter.
That leaves the economy still 1.3 per cent below the level of output achieved in the first quarter of 2008, while the US and Germany have already long surpassed their pre-financial crisis output peaks.
Fourth quarter growth was also lower than implied by various industry surveys, which suggested an expansion of over 1 per cent in the three month period.
However, the ONS said GDP grew by 1.9 per cent over the full year, marking the best performance since 2007, when the economy put on 3.4 per cent. And the consensus from forecasters is that the recovery will continue to strengthen in 2014.
The figures were exactly in line with the expectations of City analysts, but some suggested that the moderation in the recovery would help the Bank of England Governor, Mark Carney, in his quest to keep interest rates on hold, despite unexpectedly rapid falls in unemployment.
"This may help to quell murmurs of some support among [Monetary Policy] Committee members for an interest rate rise sooner rather than later," said Martin Beck of Capital Economics.
The Bank is considering how to recast its forward guidance policy on interest rates after its 7 per cent unemployment threshold came into view two years earlier than it expected.
Employment continued to grow strongly through 2013 and the jobless rate fell to 7.1 per cent in the three months to November.
Ian Brinkley of the Work Foundation said the fact that employment seems to be rising faster than output implies labour productivity is still falling.
"We have a jobs rich and productivity poor recovery and that may not be sustainable over the medium term" he said.
There are also growing concerns about the balance of the recovery, with the Business Secretary, Vince Cable, warning earlier this week that the recovery could prove "short-lived".
The ONS reported that Britain's services sector grew by 0.8 per cent in the quarter, sustaining the pace of the previous three months. Production grew by 0.7 per cent, up slightly on the third quarter.
However, despite reports of a pick-up in house building, construction contracted by 0.3 per cent in the final three months, following strong growth in the second and third quarters.
Services contributed 85 per cent of the quarter's growth. Within the sector, the strongest growth came from business services and finance.
The Treasury's official forecaster, the Office for Budget Responsibility, expects growth of 2.4 per cent in 2014. The average estimate of other forecasters is for 2.7 per cent GDP growth.

Time Running Out On Devils
by Paul on 09/18/06 at 10:22 AM ET
Comments (0)
The Devils payroll presently sits at just under the $44 million cap, but the club still must re-sign forward Brian Gionta and defensemen Paul Martin and David Hale. GM Lou Lamoriello obviously wants to re-sign those three but still needs to slash payroll to absorb those salaries and stay under the cap by opening of the 2006-07 season, little more than two weeks away. Naturally this situation has given rise to plenty of wild trade speculation, usually involving Gionta and his linemate Scott Gomez, who was awarded a one-year, $5 million contract via arbitration this summer and is eligible for UFA status next summer. It's possible one or the other could get traded, but I think it's also unlikely. The signs seem to indicate Lamoriello is looking at a different solution.read on

Belt Scooter : Collapsible Wearable Scooter by Adam Torok
It's a fashion accessory as well as transportation, Ádám Török has designed Belt Scooter for his diploma project. It's a concept collapsible scooter to meet our physical need to move around in a busy city street.

It's an efficient way to travel in shortest amount of time.
Designer : Ádám Török

Teckell by Adriano Design Is Made Entirely of Crystal Glass
Teckell stays unique for its lucidity, its clean lines and its refined aluminum cast figurines. Made completely from crystal glass, Teckell was intentionally designed to wow the community and grab the attention of people towards a brand that was premiering at Milan Salone del Mobile. Well, it was certainly challenging to bend the rules entirely via a game furniture piece, turning a football table into an elegant furniture piece that could boast heavily in a sitting a room. Although the football table is an object that made its debut in the provisional bars, it is still amazingly able to connect citizens from different ranks. From an attention-grabbing piece, Teckell has developed into a chief product for a novel brand, selling brilliantly well and getting recognitions from over the globe. This went a little further that Teckell has been used as a football representation and earned the honor of being placed in the center of the Khalifa Stadium ground during the Argentina-Brazil match affair.

Van Persie breaks drought as Man United top Stoke
Apr 14, 2013, 11:14 AM EST
Is Geoff Cameron about to be playing second-level soccer? Stoke City's relegation fears deepened today after a predictable 2-0 defeat to Manchester United.
When the United States international left the Houston Dynamo for England last August, he had reason to expect he was joining a club that would challenge for a place in the top half of the Premier League.
After promotion in 2008, the division's most-physical, direct team had been a model of consistency, finishing comfortably in the middle of the standings each year. Just look at their total points in each of the past four seasons: 45, 47, 46, 45. Manager Tony Pulis has spent some decent money, too, lavishing $7.6 million last August to take playmaker Charlie Adam from Liverpool and going Texan again in January to prise Brek Shea from FC Dallas.
A solid roster, effective playing style, intimidating home crowd and ample Premier League experience: it was all set for Stoke to have a break-out year. Instead, they simply look broken.
Stoke's form since January puts Pulis under intense scrutiny, with media talk suggesting his seven-year reign is under threat. They've collected only one point from their past seven matches and have won only once in the league since beating Liverpool 3-1 on December 26.
Among the 92 clubs in England's top four divisions, only Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger and David Moyes have stayed with their current employers longer than Pulis. But any manager would come under scrutiny with an ongoing run of 2-11-4 in all competitions. Stoke have the Premier League's worst record since January and are only three points clear of the drop zone, having played two more fixtures than 18th-placed Wigan Athletic. Their grinding, aggressive tactics ought to mitigate against such a deep slump – but it looks like they've gone stale. It doesn't help that key striker Peter Crouch is out-of-sorts with only five league goals, half his tally from 2011-12.
Cameron started at right back today but United prised open the defense after only four minutes, Michael Carrick poking in from a Van Persie corner. It was Carrick's first league goal since January, 2012 – a woeful scoring rate for a midfielder of his talent.
Speaking of slumps, Van Persie had not found the net for his club since February 10 – an eternity given how prolific he has been in his first season at Old Trafford. But when defender Andy Wilkinson felled him midway through the second half, Van Persie stepped up to score the penalty. It was so windy that the ball initially rolled away from the penalty spot.
With Manchester City facing Chelsea in the FA Cup today, the win restored United's Premier League lead to 15 points.
Stoke now face a trio of what look like season-defining games against fellow relegation-threatened sides: QPR, Norwich City and Sunderland. It shouldn't be a fireable offense to lose to England's best team – but try telling that to Sunderland's ownership.

The West Indies side has been blessed down the years with keepers who could bat, and bat well
Tony Becca

Players/Officials: Jeff Dujon | Jackie Hendriks | Deryck Murray | Sir Clyde Walcott
Other links: West Indies all-time XI home
Ever since Karl Nunes, the captain of the team, walked out to bat at No. 4 at Lord's in West Indies' first Test in 1928, their man behind the stumps has usually been not only a wicketkeeper but also a batsman.
On that June day, Nunes scored 37, the team's second-highest score of the innings, and ever since, up until recent times, West Indies wicketkeepers, some of whom have batted up the order, have always contributed to the team's total.
In fact, Errol Hunte, who batted at No. 11 in both innings of his first Test match, moved up to No. 2 in the order in his second Test and chalked up the team's top score of 58 in the first innings and 30 in the second. In 1933, Ivan Barrow, opening the innings, scored West Indies' first century (105 at Old Trafford) in England - a few minutes before George Headley, who went on to score 169 at No. 3. Clyde Walcott, the wicketkeeper who opened the innings in his debut Test in 1948, scored two centuries and two fifties in India in 1948-49 while batting at Nos. 4 and 3, and a memorable 168 not out at Lord's in 1950 to lead West Indies to their first victory in England.
The run-scoring record of West Indies wicketkeepers is underlined by the performances of Clairmonte Depeiaza, who made 122 in his world-record seventh-wicket partnership of 348 with Denis Atkinson against Australia in 1955; Gerry Alexander, who made 60 and 5, 5 and 72, 0 and 108, 63 not out and 87 not out, and 11 and 73 against Australia in 1960-61 with a table-topping average of 60.50, and Jeffrey Dujon with a career tally of 3322 runs with five centuries at 31.94.
It is not surprising that having been weaned on a diet of fast bowling, almost all West Indies wicketkeepers were brilliant against fast bowling.

Twitter rules the deadline
Mar 3, 2010, 9:45 PM EST
At some point, Twitter morphed from what seemed like a glorified extension of Facebook's status updates to the most essential, lightning-fast source of news available. Calling it a revolution isn't hasty, it's behind the times. The platform has been integrated into the way we follow the sport.
It's simply part of the establishment now, so to speak. Just think about this fact: Darren Pang – Darren Pang! - spoke about his Twitter account during TSN's trade deadline coverage. There will be a time when unlikely Twitter accounts lose their shock value, but that time hasn't come just yet
Now, this isn't by any means breaking news. Not when you consider the fact that Puck Daddy's 2009 year in review was dominated by stories with Twitter roots.
"If nothing else, 2009 was the year when social media and the hyper-fast aggregation of Twitter changed the way fans consume hockey news.
You read about goals before seeing them scored on television seconds later. Trades, signings and draft picks were broken on Twitter; first by fans, then journalists, then eventually the teams themselves. Agents used it to pimp their clients. PR professionals used it to fact-check media.
Like the proliferation of blogs before it, Twitter had its clumsy moments of growth as a new form of mass media. Misinformation could be as prevalent as solid information. One hundred-and-forty-character limits led to garbled messages and constant clarifications …"
Really, you should swallow your pride and indulge your inner hockey fanatic. Then make sure to follow Pro Hockey Talk. (Not to say that we're the only source of news.) That's why you should follow … our lists! Mouhahaha.

I ride bikes.

Opinion: 500 Euros of Freedom
I get hungry for fried eggs and bacon every single time I see an egg frying so I don't know what you are talking about. But in all seriousness I think you miss the point. I also suspect you didn't grow up in love with bikes. Because anybody who did, anybody who fell hard head over heels in love with bikes from the get go can relate to this. When I was growing up it was my freedom. I used to ride for hours just to get to a decent street spot ride on my bmx, then pedal hours home. Some days when I felt overwhelmed I'd just jump on it and start pedaling. I'd pedal till I felt better then pedal on home. Now, many years later I still feel passionate about riding but I do it in such a contrived and complicated way. Driving to the trails with an expensive fully suspended bike with all the bells and whistles ever trying to push myself forward in my skill, in my art. But sometimes I lose sight of what it really means to me. I recently built a hard tail dirt jump bike and some days when I get home from work I grab it and I just ride up and down the street hopping curbs and I feel 14 again. It's the best.
