Sanya Sehgal: A barely out-of-teen look vehemently belies the fact that she is a powerful underworld, Don. Her rise to the pinnacle of the Mumbai underworld hierarchy is an undeniable fact. Her name is being spoken with a grudging respect among the hard vicious mobsters who are not impressed easily. However, a single look into those fiercely intense gray-green eyes is enough to turn anyone into an instant believer. The voice of logic and reason, the ability to pity, forget, and forgive vanished into oblivion. When her eyes finally opened, they were red with the unshed tears of frozen grief, permanently ensconced in the dark interior of her forlorn heart, which she hung on to, like the last straws a drowning person grasps for. The Devil: He is a respectable businessman during the day and only wears Earl of Hell's waistcoat under the stars.

In the universe created by nature, which embraces billions of human beings, countless elements spread hatred and hence drive away the harmony between the universe and nature. The universe is in danger due to the negative thinking of such anti-human elements. Since the universe nourishes us all equally, to spread hatred is like biting the hand that feeds us.

For this, we all must wake up now at individual and collective levels, and this book is my small initiative

This study explodes prevailing myths about the Phoenix Program, the CIA's top-secret effort to destroy the Viet Cong by neutralizing its “civilian” leaders. Drawing on recently declassified documents and interviews with American, South Vietnamese, and North Vietnamese sources, Mark Moyar examines the attempts to eradicate the Viet Cong infrastructure and analyzes their effectiveness. He addresses misconceptions about these efforts and provides an accurate, complete picture of the allies’ decapitation of the Viet Cong shadow government.

Get ready for King and Aurora’s long awaited, action-packed story! His responsibility is to his pack, his people—the territory of New Orleans. When the world devolved into chaos and fire, Alpha wolf King kept his territory from collapsing. Now, every day it seems there’s a new challenge—rogue witches, treacherous vampires, evil dragons. But his biggest threat is Aurora. Unique, magical, a female who sees him, the male, and not simply the Alpha in charge. But she’s thrown up so many walls that he’s afraid he’ll never be able to break through to the woman behind them. When the most dangerous threat they’ve ever faced ravages the city he’ll need her at his side—to defeat it, and then claim the woman who already owns him, body and soul. But she makes him want more. After being held captive for a year, Aurora has embraced her freedom. For the first time in her life she’s living away from her older sister in a new territory. A new world. She’s made friends and is helping New Orleans get back on its feet. But she’s far from the woman she used to be. Even so, she can’t fight her ever present and growing attraction to King. Except she’s afraid she’s broken, that she’ll never be able to have a normal relationship again—that she can’t handle being an Alpha’s mate. When an evil linked to his past threatens to tear them apart and destroy the city, she must set her fears aside and find the courage to follow her heart—and the wolf who’s already won it.
