Put your headphones on, close your eyes. Embrace the possibility of the life-changing power of music. And perhaps one of these songs will change your life too. Music can inspire our greatest creations, salve our deepest wounds, make us fall in – or out of – love. It can also be a window into another’s soul. Based on the popular live storytelling series, OneTrackMinds is a collection of twenty-five compelling answers to the question, ‘What was the song that changed your life?’ Featuring pieces from a stellar cast of contributors including Peter Tatchell, Inua Ellams, Cash Carraway, Rhik Samadder, Ingrid Oliver and Joe Dunthorne, alongside some of the UK’s most exciting new voices, the book compiles many of the standout stories from the live show so far. Just as rich and varied are the songs themselves, by artists ranging from Nina Simone and Joni Mitchell to Aphex Twin and the Replacements via Tupac, Prince and the Spice Girls. The result is an entertaining, enlightening musical guide to the best of what makes us human.

Deems Taylor wrote in 1953, "In a Paris bookshop about twenty-five years ago, I ran across a volume entitled "Anthologie Libertine, ou La Fleur Francaise de la Satire Galante," a collection of upwards of two hundred pieces of light verse devoted mainly to that subject so dear to the Gallic heart, l'amour. . . . the majority were written during the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries." "Those were the times of Henry IV, of Louis XIV and Louis XV; of Watteau, Boucher, and Fragonard; of Pompadour and du Barry. Society centered about Fontainebleau and Versailles. It was an era not much more dissolute than our own, but very much more outspoken. Marriages were generally contracted for any but sentimental reasons, and it was taken almost for granted that husbands and wives would cheerfully cuckold one another. "The love poems of the day might be low on morality, but they abounded in imagination and good humor. Their day ended when nineteenth-century romanticism wiped the smile from the face of l'amour.. . .I have chosen what seemed to me the best fifty-odd out of the two hundred. The translations are as literal as I could make them, and for those who would like to check their degree of literalness, every English version accompanies the French original--including the archaic French spelling.""

From USA TODAY Bestselling Author Chris Keniston: another episode of the Surf's Up companion Flirts to the popular contemporary romance Aloha Series Adrien Brady has had enough of pretentious women and party hype. Olivia Wycliff usually finds her dreamy heroes in the comfort of a favorite chair reading a good book. But this New Year's Eve anything is possible---especially with the help of well meaning friends. Join the former navy men from the Big Island Dive shop and the patrons of the Surf's Up Saloon as they celebrate New Year's Eve and witness the sparks of a new romance unfold before their eyes. More From the Author What's a flirt? I think of them as episodes of a weekly TV show. Same familiar location and lead actor with guest stars, and of course cameo appearances of the Aloha cast. These short story Flirts have been so much fun to write. I hope you enjoy seeing the main characters from the series pop in from time to time as much as I do. It's always fun to see a snippet of their lives between books. If you haven't read the rest of the Aloha Series, you're in for a treat. Full length novels about active duty and former navy men and the women and family they love and care about. Some have a little humor, others a little mystery, but all have a lot of heart. Mostly set in Kona around the Big Island Dive shop there's plenty of fun in the sun, so pour yourself a cool drink, put up your feet and enjoy the bestselling Aloha contemporary romance series.
