Books with title Edge of the Unknown

From the number-one New York Times best-selling author of Beautiful Disaster comes a story of a fiercely independent war widow who falls for a protective hotshot firefighter in this gripping contemporary romance. Widowed before 30, Naomi Abrams has been through a lot. Her husband, Matt, sacrificed his life to save his Marine brothers. Daughter of the US modern militia's founder, heartbroken Naomi joins the Marines in Matt's place, too ready to do anything to help protect his team - men who are like brothers to her now. Retiring together to the town of Colorado Springs, they've assembled to take on the job of security at the top-secret military base, the Cheyenne Mountain Complex. As they struggle to adjust to their civilian lives, they also discover new dangers. Zeke Lund has been alone since being bumped out of the foster system at age 18, and now his ragtag family consists of his hotshot brothers and sisters. Shattered by his first love, Zeke never planned to fall for someone again, especially not during fire season in the Colorado mountains, but Naomi is unlike anyone he's ever met. She's strong and stubborn and takes exactly zero crap from anyone. At the top of a freezing canyon, the fire glowing down below, Zeke finally admits he may have feelings for the widow with the foul mouth and broken soul. When his health begins to fail, he wonders if he should love her enough to let her go or let her fight with him - with the real possibility of burying another man she loves. Despite hurt, pain, fires, and illness, two strong people with fragile hearts struggle to beat the odds…and their love might just be strong enough to survive it all.

The Devil's Dictionary is a satirical "reference" book written by Ambrose Bierce. The book offers reinterpretations of terms in the English language, lampooning cant and political doublespeak, as well as other aspects of human foolishness and frailty. It was originally published in 1906 as The Cynic's Word Book before being retitled in 1911. Modern "unabridged" versions that include Bierce "definitions" that were for various reasons missed by earlier editions continue to be popular a century later.
