Books with title Unchained

Jonas Cable is living exactly the life he wants...in a cabin on a lake in Montana. But a letter from a daughter he wasn't allowed to see changes all that in a heartbeat. He has a grandson he didn't know about, and his daughter pleads with him to get the 14 year old boy out of the hood. Does he owe her anything? Can he put up with a bad kid from East L.A.? And why should he change his life for someone he doesn't know and has not heard from in 30 years? And the last thing he needs is to get crossways with the L. A. gangs.

Sometimes we find ourselves on a gravel road, not sure of how we got there or where the road leads. Sharp stones pellet the unprotected, and the everyday wear and tear sears more deeply.After two years in a loving home, TJ's mother got him back. She was clean. No pot. No meth. His chest felt like it was burning. His heart was racing. Trapped. He felt trapped. He didn't have a say. Everything he had come to care about would be gone: Miss Dixie, hot meals, friends, Mae's little hand, and Annabelle. And the brutal life he'd escaped quickly reclaimed him. Kaden Cruz didn't run after him. Instead his voice boomed, You owe us.; TJ didn't look back. But he knew this wasn't the end of Kaden Cruz. He could still hear his father's voice. It's not free. You'll have to pay them back one day.

What would you do to save your lover?And what if you had a nuclear bomb?Evelyn was kidnapped and is being held in the Middle East. And I, Lucas, am going to rescue her.She is held in Ubar, the Atlantis of the Sands, a city that officially doesn't exist. That suits me perfectly because I am not coming in peace.Though things don't go great as the first thing I do is that I accidentally give a ten years old girl my angelic blessing. I name her Lillith and have to take her with me.That's a problem since I cannot allow her to become a fallen angel like I am. To avoid that, I balance rescuing Evelyn with raising the young girl, all the while I conceal who I am, what I do, and hide the carnage I leave behind.Yet Ubar's defenses are endless. Worse, the ruling Sultan is borderline immortal and has entirely different plans for Evelyn.To convince him to let her go, I get myself a nuclear bomb. I would rather start a world war than give up on her.

He asks me to read it twice in a row each time and the wonderful and moving images make such an impression on him. I can see it in his eyes, facial expressions and comments. I would like to commend firstly, the artist’s sensitive and expressive drawings which truly came from the heart. And I would like to commend Gryphon Press for their dedication to the voiceless.
