CARPE DIEM by Rae Matthews

Genre: Contemporary Romance

- SYNOPSIS -

Finding myself a widow at thirty-eight wasn’t in my plans. Although if I think about it, my whole life was not part of my plan. It all started when I found out I was pregnant shortly after graduating high school. After we had Bryna, Jack and I got married. Neither of us was able to follow our dreams of college. Nevertheless, all the missed plans and adventures did not matter because we were happy. We did not for one minute regret missing out on the things we would have liked to have done when we were younger.

Before Jack died, he had a plan to change all that. Unfortunately, he was taken from me before he could reveal his plans for our twentieth wedding anniversary adventure. However, thanks to his lifelong friendship with Flynn, Jack's plan was not lost. 

Jack may not be able to join me on this adventure, but with the help of my friends, I learn what it really means to seize the day.

- ABOUT THE AUTHOR -

Rae Matthews is a Minneapolis, Minnesota native who moved to La Crosse, Wisconsin in 2002 for a guy, of all things. There she started off as a bartender at a neighborhood bar, eventually moving into telecommunications. Years later she is now a wife and a ‘wicked’ stepmother. It’s a good thing she is a good cook, or they may have tossed her out on her tushy years ago.

Rae is also known for being a bit of a goofball. She loves to see people smile, and doesn’t mind if they are smiling and even laughing at her, not with her. Her motto is, “Life is too short to not laugh as much as you can.” 

Over the years Rae regaled her friends with her stories for years, and she loves to tell them, even if her friends didn’t want to hear them. But now she is finally ready to share her stories with others.

As time goes by, Rae hopes to find more time to travel and take on new challenges while continuing her joy of telling stories, crafting, cooking and generally just having fun.

Grup Media Litera lansează imprintul Introspectiv

Noul imprint al Grup Media Litera, Introspectiv, se lansează în luna februarie 2016, aducându-le cititorilor cărți-reper din domeniile spiritualității, psihologiei și dezvoltării personale.

Evoluția începe de la cunoașterea de sine. Prin lectură, pornim într-o călătorie spre interior, pentru ca apoi să găsim starea de împăcare și echilibrul. Volumele publicate sub imprintul Introspectiv oferă fiecărui cititor răgazul necesar pentru a-și răspunde la cele mai profunde întrebări legate de propria persoană, precum și la cele privitoare la lume. Cele 24 de titluri care vor apărea în anul 2016 oferă o perspectivă unică asupra unor subiecte ce frământă deopotrivă individul și societatea în care trăim. 

Primul volum, Jocul vieții și cum să îl joci de Florence Scovel Shinn, se lansează luni, 22 februarie, la toate chioșcurile de ziare, împreună cu ziarul Adevărul, la un preț special: 12,99 lei. Florence Scovel Shinn a fost o susţinătoare de marcă a puterii gândurilor, pledând pentru teoria conform căreia viaţa e un joc și, pentru a-l juca bine, trebuie să înţelegi legile universale care îl guvernează. Își învăţa elevii și cititorii cum să dobândească sănătate, prosperitate și fericire „stăpânind jocul“. Împărtășind povești reale de viaţă, ea a demonstrat cum atitudinile și afirmaţiile pozitive te pot face învingător în viaţă – capabil să controlezi condiţionările vieţii și să aduci abundenţa în viața ta prin cunoașterea legii spirituale.

Între primele apariții ale noului imprint Introspectiv se numără o serie de cinci cărți de excepție - Cum să iubești, Cum să te relaxezi, Cum să mergi, Cum să mănânci, Cum să stai - scrise de Thich Nhat Hanh, unul dintre cei mai cunoscuți și respectați maeștri Zen din lumea contemporană, poet și activist pentru pace și drepturile omului, nominalizat de către Martin Luther King la Premiul Nobel pentru Pace. Este autorul a peste 100 de cărți care abordează tematici precum meditația, conceptul de mindfullness sau budismul, volume care s-au vândut în peste 3 milioane de exemplare doar în Statele Unite ale Americii. Ca o formă de recunoaștere a impactului spiritual pe care îl are asupra umanității, este supranumit „celălalt Dalai Lama”.

Alte apariții importante:

Mindware⦁ : Tools for smart thinking de Richard Nisbet, unul dintre cei mai influenți psihologi ai timpurilor noastre, câștigător al Premiului pentru Contribuție Științifică Distinsă acordat de Asociația Americană de Psihologie.

The Tell-Tale Brain: A neuroscientist Quest for What Makes Us Human de⦁  ⦁ V.S. ⦁ Ramachandran, reputatul specialist în neuroștiințe capabil să explice într-un mod simplu funcționarea complicată a creierului și să exploreze natura conștiinței umane pornind de la disfuncțiile creierului.

Personal intelligence: ⦁ The⦁  Power of Personality de John D. Mayer, o personalitate în lumea psihologilor, co-dezvoltator al celui mai popular model de inteligență emoțională.

⦁ The Open Road de⦁  ⦁ Pico ⦁ Iyer, unul dintre cei mai îndrăgiți scriitori și prieten al lui Dalai Lama. În această lungă perioadă el a ajuns să îl cunoască pe Dalai Lama mai bine decât oricine altcineva, reușind în cartea sa să explice activitatea și ideile liderului spiritual despre politică, știință, tehnologie și religie.

Do No Harm de Henry Marsh, carte câștigătoare a Premiului PEN Ackerley, nominalizată la mai multe premii literare internaționale și considerată cea mai bună carte a anului de publicațiile Financial Times și Economist.

⦁ 15 things you should give up de Luminița Saviuc, al cărei articol cu același nume de pe blogul personal a făcut înconjurul lumii și a fost preluat de Huffington Post, acumulând peste 1,5 milioane de vizualizări și 1,2 milioane de share-uri pe Facebook. Românca este un „sculptor al sufletelor”, după cum a numit-o Huffington Post.

„Într-o lume tot mai tehnologizată,, timpul pe care reușim să îl acordăm reflecției este din ce în ce mai limitat. Introspectiv invită cititorul la o călătorie printre cele mai relevante cărți din domeniile spiritualității, psihologiei și dezvoltării personale, în scopul descoperirii de sine.”, explică Doru Someșan, coordonator editorial Introspectiv.

„Ceea ce este cu adevărat ‘de făcut’ urgent și în mod constant este o întoarcere către sine, cu un scop foarte clar și, deși poate părea paradoxal că este definit astfel, cu un scop foarte pragmatic: re-conectarea la ceea ce ne caracterizează ca membri ai rasei umane, re-descoperirea valorilor autentice. Nu vorbim despre cititul doar de dragul cititului – ci despre ceea ce ne impregnează comportamentul, în urma acestor lecturi: adică despre o anumită calitate pe care o vor căpăta acțiunile noastre în lumea 3D, în urma unor astfel de lecturi”, consideră Ana Maria Ștefănescu, trainer, terapeut transpersonal și dream teacher la Centrul de Training și Terapii Transpersonale „Drumul spre Centru”.

        Pagina de Facebook Introspectiv îi așteaptă pe cititori cu noutăți despre aparițiile editoriale, dar și cu cele mai actuale informații despre subiecte care captează din ce în ce mai mult interesul oamenilor din întreaga lumea: mindfulness, conștiință, întâlnirea dintre știință și spiritualitate, psihologie, înțelegere holistică, evoluție personală.

Excerpt

He hissed air as she uncapped the lid and poured the lotion into her hand. Her glance moved over his chest again and as she reached out to place her palm on his body, he grabbed her wrist to stop her. His rough calluses scraped erotically against her skin as he held her still. She lifted her head, and the air crackled with sexual tension when his eyes met hers.

“Don’t,” he bit out, his nostrils flaring like he was in agony.

She blinked up at him. “What’s wrong?”

He shook his head, a nervous energy about him as the blue in his eyes deepened. “I can’t have you touching me like this again, Rach.”

“Why not?”

“Because the last time you put lotion on me…well…I took…”

“We took.” She planted her pelvis next to his, and the telltale hardness between his legs told her he wanted this—her—as much as she did. “We fell into that bed together.” Why couldn’t he see that they were both responsible for what happened? That he wasn’t taking advantage of some vulnerable girl, or betraying anyone.

His jaw clenched. “We’re not going to fall in to it again. We can’t.”

“Okay.” She captured his hand and gave a little tug.

“What are you doing?” he asked. She pulled him into her room. His entire body stiffened at the sound of her lock clicking into place. His glance went from her, to her unmade bed, back to her again. He opened his mouth to speak but no words came.

Taking the lead she said, “How about we fall in to mine.” She lifted her chin, parted her lips and swiped her tongue over them in invitation.

Eyes, dark and needy, pulled away from hers and for a moment she thought she lost him. But then his breathing changed, became rough as he zeroed in on her mouth.

“Rach… Fuck… I…” He brushed his thumb over her cheek, his touch so caring and gentle it took her breath away.

“You what?” she asked.

“I…I need…I fucking need, okay.”

“Then take.”
