      Life is always looking for ways to screw you over. Scott McDermott survived the foster care system and knows better than to let anyone close, but Liam Walsh is his one vulnerability. Twice Scott let down his guard, and twice Liam vanished from Scott's life. So when Scott comes face-to-face with Liam for the first time in six years, he punches Liam in the nose. Only after Scott's friend--and Baltimore County police officer--Jamie reads him the riot act does Scott discover that in the intervening years Liam has been to war and lost his leg. Liam hasn't had the easiest life either. He took care of his drug-addicted mom when she was unable to take care of herself. He's fallen in love with Scott twice, but when Liam saw Scott going down the same path as his mother, he left. The lesson that he can't save everyone has been a painful one for Liam to learn. Maybe what he and Scott had can't ever be fixed. Scott and Liam have never fallen out of love--which becomes obvious when they start working together--but what will make this time any different from all the others? Will the third time really be a charm?

His former boyfriend is in for a rude awakening, because Quinn's not going to sit quietly on the sidelines. In fact, he has the perfect scheme, and he just needs to convince the much younger, eyeliner-wearing guy who winks at him in a bar to help him out. Eli's deception is a little too good, and soon he has everyone believing they're madly in love. In fact, he's almost got Quinn believing it himself....

    • "The links between archaeology and the Bible have fascinated generations of scholars who seek documentation of events narrated in the Bible. The British Museum's collections include numerous inscriptions, pictorial reliefs and other objects which provide such evidence." "For this book the author has selected seventy-two such 'documents', mainly from Western Asia, with some examples included from Greece, Egypt and Asia Minor, dating from the period of the Patriarchs to the New Testament times, c. 2000 BC to c. AD 100. He transliterates and translates extracts from the ancient texts, which include Cuneiform, Aramaic and Hebrew, and discusses the contribution they make to our knowledge of the culture and history of biblical times. The Bible in the British Museum is a sourcebook for all students of the Bible and the ancient Near East."--BOOK JACKET
