An emotional second-chance romance story about the strength of love, life-changing friendships, and forgiveness.
Sometimes perfect love finds you at the most imperfect time. At least that was what she'd spent nine years, eight months, and six days telling herself. But when it comes to her true feelings, Sabrina September is a prolific liar. Their love had arrived at the perfect time, but fear was a destructive force in matters of the heart.
Ten years ago, she arrived in Japan, broken, and desperately searching for a way back to herself. But in between the wonder of summer in a new city, vending machine curry, and new best friends, she found Max Harris. In his arms, she discovered the one place in the world she felt safe enough to tell the truth. But real and terrifying obstacles shattered their happy ending before it even began.
Now, a decade later, Sabrina takes a massive leap of faith and moves to North Carolina. If you asked her family, she was there to complete her PH.D. If you asked her heart, she was there to get him back.
Join Sabrina and Max in a world where summer is for losing your heart to love, and fall is for fighting to get it back. Told across a dual timeline, split between then and now, romance author Nikki Lincoln weaves loss, love, and the ache of past mistakes. Sabrina September Is A Liar is a full-length contemporary romance with a guaranteed (but hard-won) Happily Ever After, profanities, and explicit scenes. This book contains mature content that may not be suitable for all audiences.

The magnificent series of biblical commentaries known as Black's
New Testament Commentaries (BNTC) under the General Editorship of
Professor Morna Hooker has had a gap for far too long - it has
lacked an up to date commentary on the Fourth Gospel.
Professor Andrew Lincoln now fills this gap with his excellent new
commentary. The key questions for scholars are gone into
thoroughly- questions of historicity, the use of historical
traditions and sources, relationship to the Synoptics, authorship,
setting, first readers and Professor Lincoln makes his own position
on these issues abundantly clear.
The Fourth Gospel raises a number of problems generally known as
The Johannine Question. According to tradition the Gospel was
written by St John the Apostle. The authenticity of the tradition
is examined in the introduction but the textual issues are examined
within the commentary itself. For example one problem is that
Chapters 15 and 16 seem in early versions to have preceded chapter
14. Chapter 21 must have been a later addition. The purpose of the
Gospel as stated in Chapter 20 v 31 is to strenghten the reader's
faith in Jesus as the Christ and the Son of God. But even the
celebrated prologue has given rise to much speculation, whereas
most commentators believe it is the key to the Gospel as a whole.
These issues are meat and drink to scholars but in Professor
Lincoln's expert hands they are extremely interesting and highly
pertinent to our contemporary understanding of the Gospel.

In the New Mexico badlands, the skeleton of a woman is found—and the
case is assigned to FBI Agent Corrie Swanson. The victim walked into
the desert, shedding clothes as she went, and died in agony of
heatstroke and thirst. Two rare artifacts are found clutched in her
bony hands—lightning stones used by the ancient Chaco people to summon
the gods.
Is it suicide or… sacrifice?
Agent Swanson brings in archaeologist Nora Kelly to investigate. When a
second body is found—exactly like the other—the two realize the case
runs deeper than they imagined. As Corrie and Nora pursue their
investigation into remote canyons, haunted ruins, and long-lost
rituals, they find themselves confronting a dark power that, disturbed
from its long slumber, threatens to exact an unspeakable price.
William Blake's The Four Zoas is one of the most challenging poems
in the English language, and one of the most profound. It is also
one of the least read of the major poetic narratives of the
Romantic period. Spiritual History presents a much-needed
introduction to the poem, although it will also be of great
interest to those already familiar with it. This is the first
full-length study to examine in detail Blake's numerous manuscript
revisions of the poem. It offers a staged reading, one that moves,
as Blake himself moved, from simpler to more complex forms of
writing. Andrew Lincoln reads the poem in the light of two
competing views of history: the biblical, which places history
within the framework of Fall and Judgement, and that of the
Enlightenment, which sees history as progress from primitive life
to civil order. In so doing, he offers an account of the narrative
that is more coherent - and accessible - than much previous
criticism of the work, and Blake's much misunderstood poem emerges
as the most extraordinary product of the eighteenth-century
tradition of philosophical history.
