An orphaned kitten's meowmoir about the first year in her life and the young woman who adopted her.

Best friends might make the best lovers, but can it last? Patrick didn’t think it would be a big deal to kiss his best friend Brandon. Hell, they’d done crazier things to avoid a bar fight. But getting punched in the face would have been less shocking than how hot kissing Brandon is, and how much he wants to do it again. Patrick, after all, is straight. Or, at least, he thought so. Destiny has never been afraid to ask for what she wants, and when she sees Patrick and Brandon together, she knows exactly what that is. She’s not interested in a commitment, but what could be more fun than exploring this with her best friends? Brandon is a fool. He’s been in love with his best friends for as long as he can remember, and he knows a terrible idea when sees one, but he can’t resist. To complicate matters even further, he and Patrick are both cops, and are embroiled in an investigation that puts them, and Destiny, in an unknown enemy’s sights. Now, the three friends have to fight for their lives—and their hearts.

On a bitter cold day in 2007—nearly 150 years after Abraham Lincoln's inauguration—United States Senator Barack Obama of Illinois gathered his supporters at the old state capitol in Springfield, Illinois. Very new to the national political arena, he made an audacious announcement: "If you feel destiny calling, and see as I see, a future of endless possibility stretching before us; if you sense, as I sense, that the time is now to shake off our slumber, and slough off our fear, and make good on the debt we owe past and future generations, then I'm ready to take up the cause . . ." With those words Obama launched one of history's most remarkable presidential campaigns, a forceful intent that revived a moribund political party, cornered its adversaries, gathered increased political momentum with each new day, and ultimately placed a black man in the White House, something nay–sayers proclaimed would never happen. Emphasizing the revealing experiences of representative Americans from around the country, who tell how the previous eight years of failed policies shaped their personal fate and prompted them to vote for a newcomer blazing the banner of change, Destiny Calling traces a political campaign that fulfilled Lincoln's promise even as it illuminated for the world—anew —America's commitment of hope and freedom. Charles Madigan avoids the "inside politics" tack and the redundancy of most contemporary political coverage. Instead he taps an unheard–from–until–now range of American voters—the most important sources of all, the people who made the decision to send Obama to the White House. Their frustration with the wars, with the response to Hurricane Katrina, with a flat–lining economy, and with the cynicism of politics as usual helped fuel the movement that set a new standard for national campaigns, made the impossible the real, and changed forever how the nation views the process of choosing its leader.
