Once upon a time, Dee Sumner was the quintessential mafia princess. At least, she was before she sees her father kill someone and she has to go into hiding. Years on the run haven't been easy. She can't have long term friendships and she absolutely stays away from any kind of romantic entanglements. Of course, that doesn't stop her obsession with her boss. A man in search of more than a good time. Micah Ross has his pick of gorgeous women. Running the kind of club he does, they all but throw themselves at him. But the novelty of that has grown stale. He wants something more challenging, and the only woman he's interested in is Dee. Unfortunately, she's an employee, and he never fools around with his staff. One heated kiss changes everything. It only takes that one kiss for both of them to start falling. But soon, Dee's old life comes knocking on her door, and the web of lies and deceit she's been running from threatens no only their new love...but also their lives. ​​​​​​​» WARNING: The following book contains: more Hawaiian settings, a man who always thinks he's right, a woman on the run, sexy kisses, murderous relatives, a trip to Sin City, and a seduction that is sweet and hot and everything in between.

Book excerpt: USA TODAY "5 Books Not To Miss" • NY POST "Required Reading" "Sara Blaedel writes novels as twisty as spirals and electric with intelligence. A HARMLESS LIE is a labyrinth of a mystery, dense and dangerous. Come get lost in it." —A.J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window "Riveting...It’s tailor-made for Karin Slaughter’s readers.” —Library Journal (STARRED REVIEW) A woman is haunted by a heartwrenching decision she made as a teenager in this darkly atmospheric, deeply emotional thriller from #1 internationally bestselling global superstar Sara Blaedel. Detective Louise Rick is on a beach in Thailand when the panicked call from her father comes through. Louise′s beloved brother, Mikkel, has attempted suicide. His wife, Trine, left him days earlier, walking out the door one day with no warning and leaving Mikkel devastated. Louise rushes home to Osted, the small, insular Danish town where she grew up and where Mikkel still lives. But the more Louise learns about Trine—a devoted wife and the mother of two young children—and her state of mind in the days before she left Mikkel, the more Louise begins to wonder whether Trine really meant to leave him. Or whether something much darker may have taken place. As the local police begin to suspect that Mikkel may have had a hand in Trine’s disappearance, Louise struggles to clear his name but is forced to confront some hard truths: Small towns always hide secrets. The past always comes back to haunt you. And lies are never harmless. ''One of the best I've come across.'' —Michael Connelly "An intense, atmospheric starting point for those who haven’t yet discovered Denmark’s favorite cop.” —Booklist

He's always been her knight in armor. Anna DeWinter hasn't always had the best of luck with men.

He's always been the guy she could count on to support her dreams, even if she knows she isn't the woman for him. She's always been his complete opposite. Max Chandler has always admired Anna's free spirit. Whenever he gets too stuck in his own thoughts, he knows he can count on her to loosen him up. He's always kept her at arm's length because he knows he needs a certain amount of control and Anna isn't the type of woman to give him that. But all that changes after his broken engagement and too much tequila. There's no going back to being just friends. One night will never be enough for either of them, but that doesn't mean it will be easy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When a one night stand doesn’t really stay a one night stand, a woman can only resist the man of her dreams so much. I’ve always been the good girl. You know the type. The one who never got in trouble, unlike both of my brothers. But after a very public break-up, I’m ready to walk on the wild side and have my first one night stand. And I find the perfect candidate. A man she never plans on seeing again. Until we come face to face a few days later at her new job site. But that’s okay, I can handle it, and handle the sexy former Army Ranger named Alek. No, wait, I’m not going to handle him. I’ll deal with the situation like an adult. Okay, that’s a lie. Or maybe not. Do adults agree to a short fling knowing that said adult is already half-way in love with a man? Well, that’s what I did. But, I have a feeling that he’s right there with me. And as he spends his time showing me the real Hawaii, we both realize that our hearts are totally involved. Soon, tongues are wagging about our affair and someone from my past decides to make my life a living hell. With our relationship now fodder for the tabloids, I assume he’ll walk away. One thing you need to know about this story: I’ve never been so wrong about so many things, especially Alek. Warning: This story includes a good woman with naughty thoughts, a hero who wants to help her live out those fantasies, a meddling family–on both sides, and a trip back to the islands. This is another Harmless story, so you know the drill. Ice water is recommended and the author takes no responsibility for overheating readers.

Book excerpt: AN ELLE MAGAZINE BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR AN O, THE OPRAH MAGAZINE MUST-READ LGBTQ BOOK OF THE YEAR AN ELECTRIC LIT BEST SHORT STORY COLLECTION OF THE YEAR A GRINDR QUEER BOOK OF THE YEAR A THE ADVOCATE LGBT+ Book You Absolutely Need to Read "Riveting… Every lie reveals itself so exquisitely that the parallels become an added pleasure, as soon as we uncover the ways they diverge." —New York Times Book Review "Dazzling. Here is a confident, psychologically astute new writer with a bold new vision." —Garrard Conley, New York Times bestselling author of Boy Erased Throughout this striking debut collection we meet characters who have lied, who have sometimes created elaborate falsehoods, and who now must cope with the way that those deceptions eat at the very fabric of their lives and relationships. In the title story, the narrator, desperate to save a love affair on the rocks, hires an actor to play a friend he invented in order to seem less lonely, after his boyfriend catches on to his compulsion for lying and demands to know this friend is real; in "Aim for the Heart," a man's lies about a hunting habit leave him with an unexpected deer carcass and the need to parse unsettling high school memories; in "Rorschach," a theater producer runs a show in which death row inmates are crucified in an on-stage rendering of the New Testament, while being haunted daily by an unrequited love and nightly by ghosts of his own creation. In I Know You Know Who I Am, Kispert deftly explores deception and performance, the uneasiness of reconciling a queer identity with the wider world, and creates a sympathetic, often darkly humorous, portrait of characters searching for paths to intimacy.

Download or read book Infatuation written by Melissa Schroeder and published by Harmless Publishing. This book was released on 2011-11-14 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To prove her love and save her man, she has to go above and beyond the call of duty. Francis McKade is a man in lust. He’s had a crush on his best friend’s little sister for years. There’s the Bro code. Plus, being a SEAL doesn’t always work with relationships. So he’s avoided her until one little wedding dance opens his eyes. When he’s called away the next morning, he promises to come back to her. Shannon knows she loves Kade, but when he doesn’t contact her after the mission, she’s confused. That is until her brother drags Kade into Shannon’s bar and grill. This is not the man who seduced her. He’s darker and a little more dangerous. When he pushes her to her limits in the bedroom, Shannon refuses to back down. One way or another, this military man is going to learn there is no walking away from love—not while she still has breath in her body. Warning: This book contains two infatuated lovers, a hardheaded military man, a determined woman, some old friends, and a little taste of New Orleans. As always, ice water is suggested while reading. It might be the first military Harmless book, but the only thing that has changed is how hot our hero looks in his uniform—not to mention out of it.

Download or read book A Million Little Lies written by Bette Lee Crosby and published by Bent Pine Publishing. This book was released on 2020-06-16 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A lifetime of lies, and a truth too painful to tell... From a USA Today Bestselling Author, the story of a mother who will do anything to give her daughter the life she deserves. When Suzanna Duff was ten years old, she lost her mama, and that’s when the lies began. At first, they were just harmless little fibs, a way to hide her unbearable loneliness and the truth about a daddy who came home rip-roaring drunk every night. But in time, the lies grew bigger and now, when she is a grown woman with a daughter of her own, they threaten to destroy everything she loves. The irony of this situation is that Suzanna never planned to stay in Georgia, she was simply passing through, looking for a fresh start in New Jersey. Attending that wake with her daughter Annie, was a fluke. An opportunity to enjoy a free meal. It should have entailed nothing more than a solemn nod and a brief expression of sympathy but, Ida Parker, the grieving widow mistook her for her granddaughter who was carried off as an infant. Too embarrassed to do anything else, Suzanna played along. What harm was there in pretending to be someone else for a few hours? Hours turned into days and days into weeks; strangers became friends, love happened, and before long a year had flown by. Now the past is standing on her doorstep and Suzanna must decide to leave here and disappear as she has done before, or tell the truth and break the hearts of those she loves most.

Download or read book Three Proofs for the Existence of God written by Uchemadu Chée Kamanu and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-12-24 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Three Proofs for the Existence of God gives scientific, historic, and prophetic proofs for the existence of God. If we do not think that a computer, or even a bicycle, could have come up by chance, without a designer, could we think that man who made the computer could have come up by chance, without a designer? Chance and design are mutually exclusive: the disproof of the one is the proof of the other. There is no third option! In biogenesis, genetics, dendrochronology, geophysics, and thermodynamics, evolution theory has been disproved experimentally and observationally. By default, therefore, design has been proven! Any attempt by evolutionists to experimentally disprove design, or prove chance, ends up proving design: The one conducting the experiment is the designer of that experiment, and the result is his design. If the experiment is left to chance, nothing happens! With historic data from the Bible added up, we show the year God created man and other things. Acts and relationships between God and his creation show up in other chapters to remind us that the Creator, God, lives and wills. One of these chapters, "Black History in Scripture," disproves the saying that "Christianity is the white man's religion." We show that the scriptures were translated into three African languages, for ten centuries, before there was an English Bible-among other facts. Did Jesus not live in Israel and Africa only?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EDGAR AWARD FINALIST • A private investigator revisits the case that has haunted her for decades and sets out on a deeply personal quest to sort truth from lies. CLUE AWARD FINALIST • “[A] haunting memoir, which also unfolds as a gripping true-crime narrative . . . This is a powerful, unsettling story, told with bracing honesty and skill.”—The Washington Post A New York Times Book Review Editors’ Choice • One of Marie Claire’s Ten Best True Crime Books of the Year Ellen McGarrahan was a young journalist for The Miami Herald in 1990 when she witnessed the botched execution of convicted killer Jesse Tafero: flames and smoke and three jolts of the electric chair. When evidence later emerged casting doubt on Tafero’s guilt, McGarrahan found herself haunted by his fiery death. Had she witnessed the execution of an innocent man? Decades later, McGarrahan, now a successful private investigator, is still gripped by the mystery and infamy of the Tafero case, and decides she must investigate it herself. Her quest will take her around the world and deep into the harrowing heart of obsession, and as questions of guilt and innocence become more complex, McGarrahan discovers she is not alone in her need for closure. For whenever a human life is taken by violence, the reckoning is long and difficult for all. A rare and vivid account of a private investigator’s real life and a classic true-crime tale, Two Truths and a Lie is ultimately a profound meditation on truth, grief, complicity, and justice.

Download or read book The Compassionate Organization written by Ethan Chazin MBA and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2017-11-27 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his second book, The Compassionate Organization, Ethan Chazin business coach and organizational behavior expert explores how organizations build cultures that thrive by leveraging trust, ethics and a moral compass, developing powerfully engaging Vision and Mission statements, and applying the best practices to build effective workplace cultures including: hiring and retention strategies, emotional intelligence, effective communications, branding, diversity & inclusion, employee engagement and empowerment practices. The days of one employer per career are long gone. In todays contract economy, workers change jobs between eight to ten times by the time they reach 35 years old. Mature workers and Baby Boomers are leaving the workplace by the tens of thousands every day. This mass exodus of the Mature workforce and Baby Boomers coincides with Millennial workers taking over roles of increasing importance within organizations. Estimates are Millennials will constitute 75-80% of the American workforce by 2020. Organizations have been flattening out their employee ranks by casting off layers of middle management the last few decades. With this huge transfer in the balance of power from older to younger American workers, Millennials bring with them into the workplace a new set of organizational values, beliefs about work, and a set of ethics and expectations about appropriate organizational behavior. Millennials expect that the organizations they work for (and buy from) share their values, possess a moral compass, and must care for the environment. Thus, understanding how to build and maintain a compassionate organization should be top of mind for anyone tasked with launching, growing, staffing and leading an organization.
