Sheriff Dare Turner is known for his ever-present scowl and general bad mood. Between a teenage sister who thinks she's all grown up and a killer on the loose he doesn't have much to smile about these days. He simply doesn't have time for fun and games. Rayne Dunn is half free spirit and half workaholic. She doesn't mind the long hours in her tattoo shop creating works of art on skin but sometimes she'd rather be dancing in the rain with someone special. The trouble is she hasn't had a date in way too long. She needs to change up a few things or she's going to work herself into an early grave. Every time these two find themselves in a room together they end up arguing. Rayne thinks the sheriff has a big stick up his posterior and Dare thinks the sexy little tattoo artist is too loud and mouthy. It's best if they stay far away from each other. But when someone breaks into Rayne's shop and then winds up dead that probably isn't going to be an option. Whether they like it or not, they're going to be spending a great deal of time with each other. And they're starting to really like it.

"Inked is a social history of common soldiers of the Song dynasty, most of whom would have been recognized by their tattooed bodies. Overlooked in the historical record, tattoos were an indelible aspect of the Song world, and their ubiquity was tied to the rise of the penal-military complex, a vast system for social control, warfare, and labor. Although much has been written about the institutional, strategic, and political aspects of the history of the Song and its military, this book is a first-of-its-kind investigation into the lives of the people who fought for the state. Elad Alyagon examines the army as a meeting place between marginalized social groups and elites. In the process, he shows the military to be a space where a new criminalized lower class was molded in a constant struggle between common soldiers and the agents of the Song state. For the millions of people caught in the orbit of this system-the tattooed soldiers, their families, and their neighbors-the Song period was no age of benevolence, but one of servitude, violence, and resistance. Inked is their story"--

TATTOOING IS A WAY OF LIFE Yes, this phrase may sound cliché, but that's not true. For millennia human beings have used their skin to permanently shape messages: The cavemen with their war marks, members of the tribes representing their status within the group, elders asking the gods for protection. In modern times these reasons have been left aside to represent something purer: individual expression. People who wear tattoos in these times do so with the firm intention of visually showing what they carry inside, or of being the canvas of incredible artistic pieces. That's why tattoos can't be considered a fashion anymore, but a way of life. Tattooed! is born precisely from this concept, to show the world the culture behind tattoos and what tattooed people all over the world want to represent. In Tattooed! you can find all the information you need about the most modern tattoo techniques, new styles and current trends, so you can capture on your skin what you carry inside. Likewise, we will provide you with everything you need to know about the most acclaimed tattoo artists in the world, where you will be able to see part of their portfolio and find out what makes them so special. Tattooed! is designed to be the main reference for all those who want to get tattooed for the first time (or even for the fifteenth time), as there is a vacuum of information specially created and designed for the tribe of tattooed. This void can be noticed when many people, before getting a tattoo, look for information about techniques, style, care tips and others, but almost all the information you get is focused on the tattoo artists, and, after all, it is the clients who will carry these pieces of art permanently engraved on their skin. A person with tattoos will always attract attention and steal the glances, and we want to be part of that process, of guiding each tattooed in every step of getting the most incredible tattoo on their skin, after all, each one is much more than a simple canvas for the artist, he is a person who wants to show his individuality to the world. With the advice of Tattooed! these individuals will be able to make the best realistic decisions about their next tattoos, to take with them an emblematic piece that truly represents them. Without a doubt, Tattooed! seeks to be a source of real, current and objective information about the world of tattooing, to be able to offer the advice and advice that readers really need, and even to be able to give them the inspiration and motivation they need before getting their next tattoo. And we, at Tattooed!, will do our best so that you, who want to shout to the world who you really are with a piece that represents you, can take the step of tattooing your skin in the right way, giving you those tips you need so much, and answering those questions you may not dare to do. Don't be afraid to stain your skin, after all, the only thing that matters is that you have the freedom to express your personality as you see fit, and, from now on, we will be with you every step of the way.

“Just as the Black Lives Matter movement and recent protests have shown the leadership of women of color in organizing against the prison state, this book will show the leadership of women, which is too often ignored, in the innocence movement.” —Aya Gruber, Professor of Law, University of Colorado Law School, author of The Feminist War on Crime Through the lens of her work with the Innocence Movement and her client Leigh Stubbs—a woman denied a fair trial in 2000 largely due to her sexual orientation—innocence litigator, activist, and founder of the West Virginia Innocence Project Valena Beety examines the failures in America’s criminal legal system and the reforms necessary to eliminate wrongful convictions—particularly with regards to women, the queer community, and people of color… When Valena Beety first became a federal prosecutor, her goal was to protect victims, especially women, from cycles of violence. What she discovered was that not only did prosecutions often fail to help victims, they frequently relied on false information, forensic fraud, and police and prosecutor misconduct. Seeking change, Beety began working in the Innocence Movement, helping to free factually innocent people through DNA testing and criminal justice reform. Manifesting Justice focuses on the shocking story of Beety’s client Leigh Stubbs—a young, queer woman in Mississippi, convicted of a horrific crime she did not commit because of her sexual orientation. Beety weaves Stubbs’s harrowing narrative through the broader story of a broken criminal justice system where defendants—including disproportionate numbers of women of color and queer individuals—are convicted due to racism, prejudice, coerced confessions, and false identifications. Drawing on interviews with both innocence advocates and wrongfully convicted women, along with Beety’s own experiences as an expert litigator and a queer woman, Manifesting Justice provides a unique outsider/insider perspective. Beety expands our notion of justice to include not just people who are factually innocent, but those who are over-charged, pressured into bad plea deals, and over-sentenced. The result is a riveting and timely book that not only advocates for reforming the conviction process—it will transform our very ideas of crime and punishment, what innocence is, and who should be free. With a Foreword by Koa Beck, author of White Feminism “A shocking study of how the criminal justice system discriminates … an invigorating and eye-opening call to action.” —Publishers Weekly “A thought-provoking book about the American justice system . . . Beety, an innocence litigator and former federal prosecutor, concludes her important book by proclaiming ‘Let’s manifest justice now!’” —Booklist
