Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is all about choices. The ones you get to make and the ones you dont. You can choose the friends you have and the people you want to employ. You can choose your battles but you cant always choose your enemies. You can choose your goals and your dreams although these things dont always choose you. You can choose what you want to eat and where you want to shop. There is however, three choices you cant make. You cant choose who you fall in love with or who falls in love with you. You also cant choose your family.How well do you know your closest friends or people you choose to have in your life? Your lovers? Your own family? The people who claim to be your friends? Even the people youve just met? Would you do to them what they would try to do to you? Would you try to take their boyfriends? Or would you simply talk about them behind their back? Theres a token few who are loyal in that world. What will your friends do for you when the chips are down? This is where Lexi lives, right in the middle of her chaotic events. Everything that happens always begins with something she says, knows, or does, often with disastrous results. She sees everything through her purple tinted sunglasses. What will happen when she loses the glasses and starts seeing things for what they really are? In a strangely humorous way, live the ups and downs of her and her friends romances. Will she choose the nice guy or the bad boy? Will the nice guy become a jerk or will the bad boy become nice? How do people react to situations they arent used to being in? Welcome to Lexis world. Her life is sent through a wringer with Church Boy Blaine, her rock star boyfriend Izzy, a famous dad she didnt know she had, and everyone else in her life. People arent ever what they seem to be. Just look at the chapter titles. That should be enough to want to know more. I would call this tale a twisted dark romance with a keen sense of humor. Something like a warped modern day Romeo and Juliet with all the modern problems. Sorry, no vampires here. Once you start reading you probably wont even miss them. There are plenty of bloodsuckers of a different kind. Careful, you might even learn something. If nothing else, youll get sucked into these colorful and sometimes unlikable peoples lives. Its all about love and hate and the thin line in between. If youre the least bit curious open it to any page and read. Youll want to keep reading to find out what happens. Youll get addicted, youll want more. I hope.

Download or read book Kickboxing Geishas written by Veronica Chambers and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-01-09 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forget the stereotypes. Today's Japanese women are shattering them -- breaking the bonds of tradition and dramatically transforming their culture. Shopping-crazed schoolgirls in Hello Kitty costumes and the Harajuku girls Gwen Stefani helped make so popular have grabbed the media's attention. But as critically acclaimed author Veronica Chambers has discovered through years of returning to Japan and interviewing Japanese women, the more interesting story is that of the legions of everyday women -- from the office suites to radio and TV studios to the worlds of art and fashion and on to the halls of government -- who have kicked off a revolution in their country. Japanese men hardly know what has hit them. In a single generation, women in Japan have rewritten the rules in both the bedroom and the boardroom. Not a day goes by in Japan that a powerful woman doesn't make the front page of the newspapers. In the face of still-fierce sexism, a new breed of women is breaking through the "rice paper ceiling" of Japan's salary-man dominated corporate culture. The women are traveling the world -- while the men stay at home -- and returning with a cosmopolitan sophistication that is injecting an edgy, stylish internationalism into Japanese life. So many women are happily delaying marriage into their thirties -- labeled "losing dogs" and yet loving their liberated lives -- that the country's birth rate is in crisis. With her keen eye for all facets of Japanese life, Veronica Chambers travels through the exciting world of Japan's new modern women to introduce these "kickboxing geishas" and the stories of their lives: the wildly popular young hip-hop DJ; the TV chef who is also a government minister; the entrepreneur who founded a market research firm specializing in charting the tastes of the teenage girls driving the country's GNC -- "gross national cool"; and the Osaka assembly-woman who came out publicly as a lesbian -- the first openly gay politician in the country. Taking readers deep into these women's lives and giving the lie to the condescending stereotypes, Chambers reveals the vibrant, dynamic, and fascinating true story of the Japanese women we've never met. Kickboxing Geishas is an entrancing journey into the exciting, bold, stylish new Japan these women are making.
Download or read book The Trust written by Norb Vonnegut and published by Minotaur Books. This book was released on 2012-07-17 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Mr. Vonnegut dreams up diabolically elegant business crimes, then sends smart-talking characters to follow the money. He draws upon his own Wall Street experience (with Morgan Stanley, among other employers) to provide the sound of insider acumen.... There's enough novelty to this plot to set "The Trust" apart from garden-variety business thrillers, the ones in which Bernard Madoff stand-ins run Ponzi schemes. Anyway, Mr. Vonnegut is just getting started." -The New York Times Norb Vonnegut lends his unique insider's perspective and his darkly humorous writing to a fast-talking suspense thriller that takes readers inside the high-rolling world of global finance. One sultry morning in Charleston, South Carolina, real estate magnate Palmer Kincaid's body washes ashore, the apparent victim of accidental drowning. Palmer's daughter calls Grove O'Rourke, stockbroker and hero of Top Producer, for help getting her family's affairs in order. Palmer was Grove's mentor and client, the guy who opened doors to a world beyond Charleston. Grove steps in as the interim head of the Palmetto Foundation, an organization Palmer created to encourage philanthropy. Community foundations, like the Palmetto Foundation, are conduits. Philanthropists gift money to them and propose the ultimate beneficiaries. But in exchange for miscellaneous benefits-anonymity, investment services, and favorable tax treatment-donors lose absolute control. Once funds arrive, community foundations can do whatever they decide. For years Palmer showed great sensitivity to his donors, honoring their wishes to funnel funds into the charities of their choice-his unspoken pledge-and it was this largesse which made him a respected pillar of the Charleston community. But after Grove authorizes a $25 million transfer requested by a priest from the Catholic Fund, he discovers something is terribly wrong. He gets a call from Biscuit Hughes, a lawyer representing the people of Fayetteville, North Carolina, against a new sex superstore in their town. Biscuit has traced the store's funding to a most unlikely source: the Catholic Fund. Together, Grove and Biscuit launch an investigation into the fund, but the deeper they dig, the more evidence they find that the fund's money isn't being used to support the impoverished-it's going somewhere much more sinister. When someone close to him disappears and the FBI starts breathing down his neck, Grove knows he has to figure out who's pulling all the strings before the shadowy figure who will stop at nothing to keep the fund a secret gets to him.

But that happy life ended one cloudy Friday morning in June 2000 when he had a serious accident—one that almost killed him and reset his path. Once Shea knew he’d live, he had to look at his life closely and reach down deep to find the warrior within. Only then could he overcome obstacles and enjoy love, health, happiness, wisdom, and wealth. Activate the Warrior Within blends the Yin (soft) and the Yang (hard) of mental toughness to live a life full of love, health, wealth, and abundance on your own terms. Designed with exercises you can take action on to strengthen and improve your mental and physical health, you will start living your dream life with the inner strength and the tools to fulfill your own unique destiny.
