In recent years, much has been lost to a broad misunderstanding
about our human birthright and the magnificent role that human
emotions have in creating our reality. As a result, our sexual
relations have become complicated and illusive-leaving many to
believe that the word "relationship" is more like a four-letter
swear word.In her innovative guidebook, Lori Dante reveals the
fascinating methods to recreating a love cocktail that floods the
bloodstream during moments of sexual excitement. She introduces a
new paradigm proven by science and based upon metaphysical truths
that is revolutionary, allowing others to better make sense of the
human condition as fostered by the seemingly never-ending battle of
the sexes. With the goal of helping others understand their sexual
birthright, Dante teaches specific ways to apply the principles of
"Pangasm" to not only sexual relationships, but also to establish
greater levels of health and beauty.The power of the human
personality to invoke significant change should never be
underestimated. The principles shared in "Pangasm" can help you
realize your innate birthright to create a life worth living and
sharing, ultimately changing the world for the better.

........................................ Magic doesn't always play
by the rules. Gwyn Jones is perfectly happy with her life in Graves
Glen. She's formed a powerful new coven with her family; she's
running a successful witchcraft shop, Something Wicked; and she's
mentoring some of the younger witches in town. As Halloween
approaches, there's only one problem - Llewellyn 'Wells' Penhallow.
Wells has come to Graves Glen for two reasons: to re-establish his
family's connection to the town and to make a new life for himself
away from his father. But when he opens a magic shop of his own
just across the street from Gwyn's, he quickly learns that going up
against her won't be as easy as he thought . . . especially after
an accidentally magic-inspired - and very hot - kiss. While Gwyn
and Wells are fully committed to their witchy rivalry, they soon
find themselves thrown together once again to deal with the sudden
appearance of a mysterious new coven and Gwyn's growing concern
that something - or someone - is messing with her magic . . .

Since the Genie is the "ghost" writer for the book, it is
appropriate to let the Genie say a few words about himself:
"I am a genie. You may wonder what that really means and how I
come to write this little book. Well, fi rst of all, I am not from
or of your world. I live in a dimension of fi re and light. I am
basically a fi re spirit. Just so you know, we genies are alive. We
don't experience life as you do, but we are living, thinking
creatures.
"You humans take us genies for granted. Most of you have very
little idea of the tremendous service that we provide for your
kind. Everything in your world that is of a fi ery or electrical
nature is administrated by a genie or djinn assigned to that
function. Without us, your world as you know it would cease to
exist. Even the very sun that is the source of life and nourishment
for your planet is a mighty Djinn."
From within the book, the Wizard Merlyn has a few thoughts about
the book that he would like to share:
"Know, my little friend, that what you hold in your hands is a
key to the mysteries of life, and that it has greater depth and
importance than you initially can discern. Through these pages you
have been given permission to enter other realms, and-once you have
entered in, and as you maintain the requirements of each domain-you
may travel within again and again for growth, learning, healing,
inspiration and creation."
