I have survived Type One Diabetes since the 24th of March 2004. You'll notice that I used the word 'survived.' This isn't for dramatic effect or to be deliberately politically incorrect, rather to demonstrate what I believe it means to endure an incurable disease, every day of your life, for twenty years. I would love to write that surviving Type One Diabetes has become easier with every passing day, month and year, but this hasn't been the case. This isn't a story of tragedy however. Within these pages you'll find a very personal and vulnerable recount of my experiences and what it means to suffer, survive, live with with and conquer Type One Diabetes. As I sat down to write this book in December 2022, I had just turned thirty and I was the happiest I had ever been, physiologically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. I realised that my Type One Diabetes was and is, a quintessential part of my ongoing happiness. Indeed, it is an essential part of my inner strength, my fortitude, my values and my identity. Whether you survive Type One Diabetes yourself, are a parent of a newly diagnosed child, know someone with the disease, or are just curious, this book should impart an honest and unabridged reflection of Type One Diabetes, the metaphorical and literal highs and lows and, above all else, hope. As you read my story, I hope that you can reflect upon your own challenges and come to understand what makes you quintessentially happy, perhaps even in the face of adversity. As someone close to me once said, I don't live with Type One Diabetes, Type One Diabetes lives with me.

Taking out hellish creatures—not a problem. Armed with blessed silver hollow-points and the ability to manipulate magick, he's ready for anything—except betrayal he never saw coming. . . Deacon Chalk knows the biggest danger in fighting monsters is becoming one. Just another day at the office for your friendly neighborhood occult bounty hunter. If keeping three helpless were-dog children safe means battling a malevolent trio of witches by any means necessary, so be it. If that means partnering with a ruthless government agent to stay one step ahead of the allies and friends he must now suspect, he's not going to cry about it. The only way Deacon can save humans and shape-shifters alike is to embrace a power beyond his imagining, putting his team at stake—and his soul on the line. . .

So when a pretty vampire girl "hires" him to eliminate a fellow slayer, Deacon goes to warn him--and barely escapes a vampire ambush. Now he's got a way-inexperienced newbie hunter to protect and everything from bloodsuckers to cursed immortals on his trail. There's also a malevolent force controlling the living and the undead, hellbent on turning Deacon's greatest loss into the one weapon that could destroy him. . .

A wife returns from the dead with danger one step behind her. From the New York Times–bestselling author of the Brotherhood Protectors Colorado series. She’d been his wife for barely a day and now FBI agent Tuck Thunder Horse was responsible for identifying her body. So he was more than shocked when Julia Anderson turned up very much alive—and on the run. Julia confessed to witnessing a murder and now needs Tuck to help her stay alive . . . and protect the baby he hadn’t known she’d had. Julia and Tuck’s marriage might not have lasted, but there was no time for recriminations with a killer on their trail. As Tuck struggles to put their painful past behind them, he can’t help but find himself overwhelmed by his love for his little daughter . . . and his still-burning passion for Julia. Unable to trust anyone but each other, they know working together is the only way to safeguard their child. Could their one-day marriage turn into a lifelong adventure?

A comprehensive history of working people in Saskatchewan, from the mid-1800s to the present, in a handsome coffee-table format, including numerous historical photos of the personalities and events that bring it to life. This book is created for the working people that it celebrates. In a plain-spoken and engaging narrative style, it captures the events and the personalities that shaped the working people of Saskatchewan, and the life of the province that those workers built. Jim Warren tells the fascinating tale of jobs, working conditions, and the attempts to effect meaningful changes in the condition of workers' lives. Starting with the Fur Trade period, and moving through the arrival of the railroad brotherhoods, the emergence of the craft unions, two world wars, modernization, and into the present age, Working in Saskatchewan shows the evolution of the work force, and the relationship between that work force and both private and public sector employers. The book wraps up with a short chapter on the imagined future of labour in the province, in the voices of a series of speakers ranging from former Premier Allan Blakeney to ordinary workers on the floor of a recent sfl convention. Working in Saskatchewan also includes a number of features that will make it even more useful for private study or school work. Two comprehensive indexes detail the chief characters who played a role in the development of the labour movement, and a list of events and important topics. A series of informational appendices present statistical information relating to the Saskatchewan labour force - size of the organized and unorganized labour force, number of women in the work force, etc. There will also be ahelpful glossary of the acronyms and abbreviations that characterize written or oral discussions about labour, and a geneology of labour which charts the rise and growth of certain unions and their transformation into, or absorption by, others.
