Book excerpt: She's all I've dreamed of for years, but she's my employee...and around her, I turn into a stuttering teenage boy. We’ve been dancing around each other for years. It’s not a dance I’m proud of. The day we met, I fell out of my chair. Now, we’re stuck in this repeating pattern: she corners me, I freeze then I bolt. I’m 33 years old and I should be able to handle a woman better than this. But she’s not just any woman. She’s tough, smart, and her curves make my legs numb. Oh yeah, she’s also my employee. But when I finally work up the nerve to talk to her, I stick my foot in my mouth. Then that night, when her world is touched by violence, I firmly lodge my foot all the way into my throat. Now I’ll do anything to fix what I’ve broken. I’m working to contain the aftermath of that night, and I have a plan to woo her (yes, I said woo). And my plan was working. Slowly, steadily, she was coming to me. Then my brothers decided to ‘help’ us along and now we’re stranded at a tiny motel in the middle of nowhere, in a snowstorm. And there’s only one bed. When we get out of here, I’m going to murder my brothers. Then I’m going to make damn sure the threats against her are handled. Because even though I’m a computer geek, I am more than capable of being the man she needs. I just hope I don’t run out of time before I can show her.

Download or read book Tony Ryan written by Richard Aldous and published by Gill & Macmillan Ltd. This book was released on 2013-08-30 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this authorised biography of one of the most remarkable Irishmen of the twentieth century, Richard Aldous is independent in his judgements and frank in his examination of his subject's shortcomings and eccentricities. But most of all, he writes with verve and pace. Tony Ryan was born in a railwayman's cottage and rose to enormous success, overseeing the spectacular making of two business fortunes and the dramatic loss of one. After an early spell in Aer Lingus, he set up an airline leasing company, Guinness Peat Aviation (GPA), which had its headquarters in Shannon and quickly became the largest such enterprise in the world. Ryan was a hard taskmaster and the company reflected his ferocious work ethic. Yet, despite a stellar board of directors, a botched and poorly timed Initial Public Offering in the 1990s saw GPA crash and burn. Ryan lost almost everything. All that remained was a little airline running massive deficits. Ryan set about turning Ryanair around, putting in one of his assistants, Michael O'Leary, to help knock it into shape. The rest is history. Ryan remade his fortune, lived lavishly and elegantly, was a generous patron of the arts, and in every respect larger than life. His spirit is one that Ireland needs more than ever today. As the nation strives for its own recovery, it can find inspiration in the story of how one of its most famous sons rose and fell, and then rose again. Not one to stand still or lament mistakes, Tony Ryan's determination never to give up is the real lesson of this story. He was in so many ways Ireland's Aviator.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eternity is a long time to be watching over your shoulder... The Tide is turning, and the Immortals who have walked the world for eons are once again coming into their powers and stepping from obscure boltholes to take control once more. The very mortal lady Arkady knows of their plans but holds out little hope of being able to stop them. Branded and sold into slavery, Arkady fears all she knows and loves is lost—her husband, Stellan, was probably dead by now, hanged by the Immortal Jaxyn for his own nefarious purposes; and Declan Hawkes, the King of Glaeba's Spymaster and her childhood friend — perhaps the only other human she knew who might risk everything to save her — doesn't even know she's in danger. She will turn to her new owner for help ... but learning the truth about him may cost them both their lives. And Stellan? Well, it turns out he isn't dead and Jaxyn's plans hit a snag when he realises that Stellan, the one man who can challenge him for the Glaeban throne, has sought asylum in neighbouring Caelum. Strangely enough, the Empress of the Five Realms (a Tide Lord in hiding no more), and the Tide Lords, Tryan and Elyssa, seem to be on Stellan's side ... Plots within plots. Magic tinges the very air and the Tide will bring mayhem and madness to both mortal and Immortal alike. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
Download or read book Lovesick written by Nicole Ciacchella and published by Sweenix Rising Books. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book in a sexy new rom-com series about a group of gloriously geeky ladies. Adriana Catalano’s own guts hate her—or at least it feels that way. Ever since she was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease, a chronic inflammatory illness of the digestive tract, she’s done her best to keep herself healthy. Unfortunately, that hasn’t saved her from the embarrassment of trying to figure out how to explain to a date why having dinner with him results in her spending thirty minutes in the ladies’ room. When the tempting and mysterious Declan Maguire starts coming in to the library where Adriana works, crushing on him seems like a safe indulgence. He has a girlfriend, so there’s no need for her to deal with the messy reality of an actual relationship. Plus, how can she possibly resist him? He’s everything she could ever want in a guy: ruggedly handsome, kind, funny, charming, and almost as avid a bookworm as she is. By the time Adriana finds out that Declan is, in fact, available, she’s deep under his spell. But is asking him out a good idea? Casual dating isn’t her style, so is it fair to ask him to take on the lifelong responsibility of dealing with her illness? To make matters even more complicated, her condition isn’t the only challenge they have to overcome. For months Declan hasn’t looked well either, and the closer he and Adriana get, the more he seems to hold himself back. Is their relationship strong enough to survive the obstacles life throws in their path, or will their problems tear them apart?

Download or read book Angela s Ashes written by Frank McCourt and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1998-12-17 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Pulitzer Prize–winning, #1 New York Times bestseller, Angela’s Ashes is Frank McCourt’s masterful memoir of his childhood in Ireland. “When I look back on my childhood I wonder how I managed to survive at all. It was, of course, a miserable childhood: the happy childhood is hardly worth your while. Worse than the ordinary miserable childhood is the miserable Irish childhood, and worse yet is the miserable Irish Catholic childhood.” So begins the luminous memoir of Frank McCourt, born in Depression-era Brooklyn to recent Irish immigrants and raised in the slums of Limerick, Ireland. Frank’s mother, Angela, has no money to feed the children since Frank’s father, Malachy, rarely works, and when he does he drinks his wages. Yet Malachy—exasperating, irresponsible, and beguiling—does nurture in Frank an appetite for the one thing he can provide: a story. Frank lives for his father’s tales of Cuchulain, who saved Ireland, and of the Angel on the Seventh Step, who brings his mother babies. Perhaps it is story that accounts for Frank’s survival. Wearing rags for diapers, begging a pig’s head for Christmas dinner and gathering coal from the roadside to light a fire, Frank endures poverty, near-starvation and the casual cruelty of relatives and neighbors—yet lives to tell his tale with eloquence, exuberance, and remarkable forgiveness. Angela’s Ashes, imbued on every page with Frank McCourt’s astounding humor and compassion, is a glorious book that bears all the marks of a classic.
