Book excerpt: His first mistake was playing. His worst mistake was leaving. Rowan Michaels never considered Connor Ashton as more than an acquaintance. During their university days, he always had a new love interest, a revolving door of women. She refused to be one of them, and he never seemed interested. When their formerly tight-knit group meets again to celebrate the wedding of one of their own, she's tempted to sample the goods. Connor looks better than ever, and he's turning on the charm. What harm could come from one night with the hottest man at the wedding? Plenty, as fate would have it. When the reason for Connor's sudden interest comes to light, Rowan is heartbroken. Her miscalculation might cost her one best friend, her place in her bestie's wedding, and her last shred of dignity. Can she forgive and forget? What's a bridesmaid to do?

Book excerpt: Josephine McMaster is pretty and smart, but very much a klutzy mess. Finally, at 26, she may have actually lost the dreaded 'McMaster the Disaster' nickname that has followed her around her whole life. Josie's quite content to be single, much to her mother's disappointment. So when a bizarre contest is announced where a socialite is holding a lottery to pick her bridesmaids (and rake in a little extra cash), she can't roll her eyes fast enough, even if it does mean meeting Jake Hall, her one and only movie star crush. Obviously, Josie doesn't enter the bridesmaid lottery, so you can imagine her surprise when her picture pops up among the winners, thanks to Mom. With a little prodding -- okay bribing -- Josie agrees to participate. The wedding turns into the event of the year, and Josie finds herself in the middle of a paparazzi feeding frenzy, which gets even crazier after Jake Hall takes a special interest in her. Can Josie handle the pressure in the spotlight? Is it possible she might really have a chance with Jake Hall? And if she's busy worrying about all that, how in the heck is she going to keep 'McMaster the Disaster' from showing up in front of the entire world?

Download or read book Where Did Our Love Go written by Gil Robertson and published by Agate Publishing. This book was released on 2013-01-21 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where Did Our Love Go?, an anthology of essays written by many major public figures and celebrities, will explore the substantive issues related to marital problem in the African-American community. From the "my baby's mama" syndrome to the more serious implications of what a generation of single-parent households will mean to future generations, this comprehensive collection will provide an in-depth discourse on the trends and issues that have caused the problematic behaviors within African-American relationships to persist with little sign of relief. The book will consist of a total of 40 essays divided equally into 4 lifestyle categories (single, married, divorced, and widowed), to present a wide cross section of perspectives on this subject. Marriage plays an essential role in maintaining the vitality and character of a community, so it is deeply unsettling for many African Americans to find that the value of this institution has lost its allure. While marriage among African Americans has always fallen below the average of other population segments, the gap today has grown so pronounced that the subject has sparked an intense national dialogue. A 2006 Washington Post article, “Is Marriage for White People,” created waves of controversy on the issue. In 2010, Nightline dedicated an entire broadcast to this growing crisis. The marriage gap in Black America has become such an open secret that it’s now the source of endless bad jokes and prime time reality shows. The statistics even back this up, as according to the U.S. Census, 43.3% of black men and 41.9% of black women in America have never been married, and the rate of decline is nearly twice the national average. Marriage is a rite of passage that is fundamental to every culture, which underscores the tremendous need for an active dialogue to take place that will lay a foundation for discovery. With essays from 50 Cent, Viola Davis, Jabari Asim, Darnell Williams, Faith Evans, Mara Brock Akil, and more, Where Did Our Love Go? will ignite the fight for that conversation to begin.

Book excerpt: Western Washington State - Two cantankerous characters, fifty somethings fall in love - a lady state trooper and a software mogul. She is widowed, he is a confirmed bachelor. Sparks fly, but a relationship is born or should we say reborn - they do not remember their first meeting as children who shared many interests. She was seven and he was nine when they met on that Whidbey Island beach long ago. Little did the lovers know of the coming storm - it would put their very lives on the line. They were troubled with premonitions. Fate would put them together at the wrong place at the wrong time - or so it seems, in the path of dangerous fanatics. Thrust into the fire, these defenders of the homeland and a handful of others faced the fight of their life on that icy wet November night against a determined terrorist cell with big plans. Would the couple survive to their wedding day? Would they even survive the night? Divine intervention from another character of supernatural persuasion, which had followed them from their very births, might help their odds. This 'secret' friend could have been responsible for incidents and accidents in their past that led up to this stormy November night. "That hillbilly angel is meddlin' agin' " The author, Eric G.
