She has a run-in with the CEO of the company, Charles. Charles is a playboy, known for dating beautiful supermodels, but there is something about Sarah that attracts him to her immediately. Their hearts collide and they are quick to realize that they are made for each other. But the path to love is never smooth. Sarah’s concern is that her daughter will be exposed to a media frenzy, and her fears are warranted.

Despite familial problems, Sarah and Charles try to make it work, and try to form a new family for Amanda. TOUCH OF THE BILLIONAIRE When Adrian first discovered her husband’s infidelity, she was at a loss. Her first and foremost concern was her daughter, and how to care for her as a single mother. Just when she starts to get her feet underneath her, life throws her another loop in the form of a gorgeous billionaire boss. She falls hard for the job itself, as an event planner for a non-profit foundation. She loves the work and finds herself naturally inclined to the position she was given. But the roller coaster named Andrew Cole was almost too much for her to handle. Perhaps her reaction was too much for him, but then again, perhaps his actions were too much for her. Will they manage to work it out or is it all just too much for Adrian and Andrew to handle? FALLING IN LOVE WITH MY BOSS Where did I go wrong in my life?” I asked myself almost on a daily basis when I looked in the mirror. I was no longer happy and barely smiled. Every day seemed to be the same thing with my husband, William. Life had taken its course, but I wasn’t prepared for the way it turned around. I would have never caught myself ten years ago when we had been college sweethearts. Now ten years so far away and often I try to go back to the past to kiss it one last time, wondering if this time would be the last. Carlipian College was where I had met my husband. He had majored in medicine and I majored in business and business administration. Secretly back then I dreamed of being a CEO for a large company. That was just a dream. Graduation had brought joy to my parents, a new life and a diploma I wouldn’t use for a while. William and I got married shortly after graduation and he was the type of man who thought women should stay at home. That was short lived when we almost lost everything we owned due to a poor investment. Constantly I wonder where the love we had gone. He had changed and wasn’t the same man I had met and fell in love with. He was now trying to hide the fact he had other women on the side. It wasn’t any secret what had been going on for some time. His cell phone had a password on it and locked when it wasn’t in his hands. His work clothes had female’s perfume and lipstick on them neither was things that I would where. I knew I would never have the answers of why he did what he did. WARNING: Readers must be 18+ due to mature themes and language.

Download or read book Confessions of a Wall Street Analyst written by Dan Reingold and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2009-10-13 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-documented, in-depth look at the Street that names heroes and villains and pulls no punches.” —The Boston Globe Dan Reingold was a top analyst for fourteen years, chief competitor to Salomon Smith Barney’s Jack Grubman in the red-hot telecom sector. He was part of the Street and believed in it. But in this action-packed, highly personal memoir Reingold describes how his enthusiasm gave way to disgust as he learned how deeply corrupted Wall Street and much of corporate America had become during the roaring stock market bubble of the 1990s. Confessions of a Wall Street Analyst provides a front-row seat at one of the most dramatic—and ultimately tragic—periods in financial history. Reingold recounts his introduction to a world of leaks and secret deal-making; his experiences with corporate fraud; and Wall Street’s alarming penchant for lavish spending and multimillion-dollar pay packages. He spars with arch rival Grubman; fends off intense pressures from bankers and corporate CEOs; and is wooed by Morgan Stanley’s John Mack and CSFB’s Frank Quattrone. He tells of confidential deals whispered about days before their official announcement, and recalls the moment he learned that WorldCom was massively cooking its books. And he reveals his shock at being an unwitting catalyst for a series of sexually explicit e-mails that would rock Wall Street; bring Grubman to his knees; and contribute to the stepping aside of Grubman’s boss, Citigroup CEO Sandy Weill. In addition, he shows how government investigators never got to the heart of the ethical and legal transgressions of the era, leaving investors—even sophisticated professionals—cheated. Reingold’s stories range from outrageous to hilarious to simply absurd. But together they provide a sobering exposé of Wall Street: a jungle of greed and ego brimming with conflicts and inside information, and a business absurdly out of touch with the Main Street it claims to serve. “Shows us that much of what propelled the meteoric rise of the stock market in the late nineties was self-interested, sometimes criminal, hot air . . . a riveting and revealing account.” —Michael K. Powell, former chairman, FCC

Now, in this dazzling collection of nine entirely original essays, written with a rare combination of give and sharpness, wit and fearlessness, she delves into the forces that warp our vision, demonstrating an unparalleled stylistic potency and critical dexterity. Trick Mirror is an enlightening, unforgettable trip through the river of self-delusion that surges just beneath the surface of our lives. This is a book about the incentives that shape us, and about how hard it is to see ourselves clearly through a culture that revolves around the self. In each essay, Tolentino writes about a cultural prism: the rise of the nightmare social internet; the advent of scamming as the definitive millennial ethos; the literary heroine’s journey from brave to blank to bitter; the punitive dream of optimization, which insists that everything, including our bodies, should become more efficient and beautiful until we die. Gleaming with Tolentino’s sense of humor and capacity to elucidate the impossibly complex in an instant, and marked by her desire to treat the reader with profound honesty, Trick Mirror is an instant classic of the worst decade yet.

Women weren't allowed to study magic. Everything changes after the ruthless vampire king, Damien Ashwood, stumbles upon her performing advanced magic. She expects punishment. Expects any chance at freedom to be torn away from her because only males are allowed to practice higher magic. But he does something far worse. The king proposes. Fighting to maintain some semblance of control over her life despite the king's plans to wed her, all while an old threat of rebellion makes a resurgence in the kingdom, Liana struggles to hide her powerful and chaotic magic. Now she must choose between the private and independent life she always dreamed of or embrace the king and the power she'd been blessed with to save her kingdom.

Dialectics is a method of investigating into the nature of the Truth, through discussions in the form of questions and answers. Many a times, resolution of the doubt creates an experience that is nothing short of an epiphany, a sudden enlightenment, or an intuitive leap of realization. The satisfaction of having a troubling question answered after many years of intellectual discomfort is much like the gratification of taking off a tight shoe after wearing it all day, except that the latter is a physical relief while the former is an intellectual deliverance. Over the last 25 years, Swami Mukundananda has been asked hundreds of thousands of questions from people across the world, on diverse topics related to religion, spirituality and God. These discussions with devotees, seekers and learners are now available as a source of guidance for sincere seekers worldwide. The book is a compilation of answers to some of the most challenging questions regarding spirituality, the goal of life, philosophy, the holy scriptures, and more.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Just as heat is inherent in fire, so is our desire to become better.' Why are personal growth and life transformation so difficult? Does Creation wish that we fail? Of course not! The purpose behind the Universe's grand design is to make us succeed. Our own unawareness of the laws of the Universe creates the impediment. Just as physical phenomena are regulated by laws, there are spiritual principles governing the journey of life as well. Knowledge of them helps us understand why success comes so easily to some but remains a struggle for others; why some are still putting on their shoes, while others have finished the race. The beauty is that, like the physical laws of nature, the divine principles governing happiness and fulfilment in life are also eternally valid. In this book, Swami Mukundananda explains the 7 divine laws in an easily graspable manner. With knowledge of the Vedic scriptures and witty anecdotes that everyone can relate to, this book will empower you to become the best version of yourself.
