Book excerpt: In a fast-paced and frantic world, it feels like the most important thing is getting from point A to point B as fast as possible. But sometimes, the urgency of the modern world makes us forget that the journey is just as important too - even if the journey is seemingly as simple as the route the bus takes every day. As a transit bus driver, Claude Boucher ferries passengers from every walk of life. He connects with each of his passengers as best he can, sharing with them their highs and their lows as they traverse through life. In Claude and His Bus, his passion for his work and kindness toward his passengers shines through, showing that there is still room for positivity and laughter in an otherwise busy society. From late-night drunken passengers to lost Canadian immigrants, Claude has seen it all, and his heart has done nothing but grow with compassion. Join Claude as he tells over sixty stories of his time as a public transit driver. From hilarious to heartwarming, his experiences are a feel-good reminder that even something as small as a smile and a “thank you” can change the trajectory of someone’s entire day.

Book excerpt: Moments after Bobby left, someone began watching young, innocent Kate. Who will save her—a bumbling father, an overprotective mother, or perhaps a guardian angel? And who is this intruder who peers into the intimacies of Kate’s life? F. L. Wasselwick’s Return of the Golden Turtle breathed life into beautiful Kate Beckermen. Readers fell in love with her and her dashing, charismatic Bobby. What will become of these two young lovers? With Bobby on a quest to find his purpose, Kate’s life collides with a misguided soul, a social castaway—this man who watches from her mirror. Leviticus Darkweather, a sinister, misunderstood genius, systematically studies Kate from his self-imposed isolation. His purpose: to deliver the greatest of gifts—a message that will save us from ourselves. K. L. Malmquist weaves yet another fantastic tale. It is a wild and twisted ride, an unpredictable journey. It is romance and adventure written with a flair for futuristic science fiction. Although the greatest of gifts has arrived, it comes not in a pretty little package. It remains locked away . . . in the mind of a madman . . . cradled by an insanity of our own creation. It is The Unraveling.

Download or read book The Original and Thrilling Tale of Ricky Sweetman written by Maurice John Weistra and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2020-09-18 with total page 617 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The quiet neighbourhood was lined with majestic old-growth oaks, the faded, cracked roads and sidewalks bordered with once grand family homes still hanging onto a sliver of their former presence. One would be likely to assume it a subdued and uneventful place where the most interesting thing in a day may be a treed cat. But behind these brick facades and old peeling bay windows, there’s a dark secret. A boy lives trapped, tortured by a most unusual and terrible means, slowly dying at the hands of the one he depends most. Trusting that only she can keep him safe, he is far from realizing he is the victim of an ultimate betrayal. The sleepy neighbourhood hides another danger, a twisted predator who lurks nearby, he knows of the boy but rather than help, he plans only harm... but not quite yet, not till the time is right, there are things to finish so everything is simply perfect for the terrible party he is planning for just the two of them. And last, an ex-con, newly released, trying to stay on the straight and narrow. With temptations and problems of his own, this unlikely character may be the boy’s only hope. Though the child doesn’t realize it, this imposing man with his own dark past may be his one true friend and protector. When these three worlds collide, anything might happen. There is no way to predict where the chips will fall, and no avoiding the inevitable clash. One thing is certain how-ever, the neighbourhood will never be the same.
