The Element Series by Brandon Montgomery is an action-packed trilogy comprised of a gripping, three-segment saga that will leave readers anxious to see what's next. The Elements are diamond-shaped crystals that enhance the natural abilities of each wielder to an extreme level. The opposing teams mobilize for a legendary battle between good and evil, and, alas, the victor can only be determined by blood. Celebrated novelist Amy Ephron returns with her first book of nonfiction, Loose Diamonds. With her wonderful sense of humor, marvelously candid voice, and astonishing perception, Ephron weaves together insightful, profound and just plain funny stories of her life to form a portrait of a woman's experiences from childhood through young adulthood, marriage, divorce (and remarriage) and everything in between. Writing with great honesty and exacting prose, Ephron gives us an evocative, engaging and often piercing look at modern life. Are you thinking about having sex with a friend but not forming a romantic relationship? Is it possible to a have a "friend with benefits"?
