Book excerpt: Jewel Jackson has one goal for the remainder of the rodeo season: finish with the best bucking bull in the business. The owners of Double B Pro Rodeo have decided to sell, and if Jewel can ensure their star bull continues to perform as expected, she’ll earn the Brandons a huge payday. Of course, by doing so, she’ll also be maneuvering herself right out of a job. Bobby Brandon, youngest sibling of the Brandon clan and long-time friend of Jewel’s, has returned home to help at the Double B while another employee is away. Spending the summer in Birch Bay is no big deal. He doesn’t start his Pharmacy degree until the Fall, and he always loves coming home to visit. Plus, he and his ex are finally over, and he could use the break. He’ll help with the bulls while also enjoying quality time regrouping in his studio, then he’ll get back to his “real” life at summer’s end. That is, unless hanging out with Jewel upends his lifelong plans the same way one smile from her suddenly reverses his intentions for a low-key summer. Passion ignites when two long-time friends find themselves in the right place at the right time, and as Jewel struggles with the idea of walking away from the animals that have always meant so much, Bobby finds himself reevaluating his entire livelihood.

Download or read book Montana written by Keith Dunnavant and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2015-10-27 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rich in anecdotal detail, insight and context, Montana is a powerful story about a man who was defined by his intense competitiveness, and how this intangibly helped him become one of the ionic figures in football history. As long as football is played, Joe Montana will be synonymous with the heart-pounding rally. Seemingly impervious to the pressure of a scoreboard deficit, the quarterback known as Joe Cool brought a steadying calm to every huddle, especially when the situation seemed especially dire. His reputation for miracles began to take root at the University of Notre Dame. In the 1979 Cotton Bowl, he overcame the flu, hypothermia and a 22-point deficit to lead the Fighting Irish to a stunning victory over Houston. This narrative continued in the NFL, as he engineered 31 fourth-quarter comebacks, including victories known in professional football lore as The Catch and The Drive, forever casting his career in a heroic glow. While leading the San Francisco 49ers to four Super Bowl championships over a nine-year period, establishing a new standard for passing efficiency, and twice earning the league's Most Valuable Player award, Montana became the signature quarterback of the 1980s and one of the greatest ever to play the game. Overcoming his own limitations, which caused him to be underrated coming out of Notre Dame, he quickly mastered Bill Walsh's West Coast Offense, and thereby, helped reinvent offensive football. But it was rarely easy. Like the rallies he so often produced, his life was filled with the sort of tension that made his journey seem routinely dramatic: The father who pushed him. The high school coach who challenged his commitment. The college coach who very nearly squandered him. The back surgery that almost ended his career. The younger athlete who tried to take his job. In Montana, acclaimed author Keith Dunnavant sketches the definitive portrait of a man who repeatedly defied the odds, on and off the field.

Download or read book Vi s Secret written by Ph. D. Gene F. Ostrom and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2008-05 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No person's life exists in a vacuum. To varying extent, we are all shaped by the times, places, events, and people that make up the milieu of our experience. This is well illustrated by this women's life. Born Elvira Claudia Farr in Montana in 1899, "Vi" (as she preferred) was witness to, and strongly subject to societal changes stemming largely from the enormous advances in science, technology, and culture. (An amazing parallel exists between then and now-rapid change and conflict). Her life was filled with competing forces from her beginnings in a affluent family in a small town retaining a vestige of the Wild West (with its cowboys and Indians); to space travel. Her temperament and the times led to a paradoxical existence not easy to decipher. Unique events occurred in her life that were especially challenging. Her way of coping provides a valuable lesson. Vi lived in fascinating times and fascinating places. Some of those people who had special meaning to Vi will be a surprise to the reader. Her life is a good example of the importance of family lore.

Download or read book The Last Best Place written by Leah Schmalzbauer and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Southwest Montana is beautiful country, evoking mythologies of freedom and escape long associated with the West. Partly because of its burgeoning presence in popular culture, film, and literature, including William Kittredge's anthology The Last Best Place, the scarcely populated region has witnessed an influx of wealthy, white migrants over the last few decades. But another, largely invisible and unstudied type of migration is also present. Though Mexican migrants have worked on Montana's ranches and farms since the 1920s, increasing numbers of migrant families—both documented and undocumented—are moving to the area to support its growing construction and service sectors. The Last Best Place? asks us to consider the multiple racial and class-related barriers that Mexican migrants must negotiate in the unique context of Montana's rural gentrification. These daily life struggles and inter-group power dynamics are deftly examined through extensive interviews and ethnography, as are the ways gender structures inequalities within migrant families and communities. But Leah Schmalzbauer's research extends even farther to highlight the power of place and demonstrate how Montana's geography and rurality intersect with race, class, gender, family, illegality, and transnationalism to affect migrants' well-being and aspirations. Though the New West is just one among many new destinations, it forces us to recognize that the geographic subjectivities and intricacies of these destinations must be taken into account to understand the full complexity of migrant life.

Book excerpt: Family drama never took so many twists and turns. Romance has never been so emotional. Welcome to the world of the Davenports. The Davenports can do no wrong. Everyone loves them. Expectations are high and always met. “This is my big, multi-generational political family—but these are not political books. There are three siblings in this generation of Davenports, and that’s what these books are. JP, Cat, and Bennett’s love stories. Three sweeping romances that’ll make you smile . . . that’ll turn you on a little . . . and that will have you cheering each couple to the finish line. Only, what none of the siblings expect are the secrets that start tumbling from their family closets. In book one, it’s a crack in the surface. Unexpected—and certainly not good—but something the family can handle. Reality hits in book two with the discovery that one little secret was merely the tip of the iceberg. Bonds are tested as more lies are exposed, and some bonds are broken. Some will bring you to tears. Book three is the culmination of all that’s come before it. The oldest sibling retires from the Army and returns home, ready to face the truth that sent him packing twenty years before. However, there’s one last twist in the Davenport saga. One scandal they could have never seen coming. And that scandal—and that book—was one of my favorite things ever to write.” Caught on Camera JP is the man of the moment, a member of the powerful and untouchable Davenport family. Vega has a past she’s not proud of and has worked hard to bury it. When the two are thrown together, and chemistry ignites, they learn that secrets have a way of coming out. Secrets which could ruin the lives they’ve built—and jeopardize any chance of having a future together. Caught in the Act Catherine vows to take a vacation from her drama-filled family, and when she arrives in the small Maine town, she’s surprised to find none other than her first love. Falling back into the arms of Brody ensures her vacation becomes her salvation, but will their relationship survive when being together uncovers the biggest Davenport scandal yet? Caught off Guard Bennett retires from the Army wanting nothing more than a night with his long-time hook-up Aubrey before facing his mother about a Davenport family secret which has been ignored for too long. But when his mother’s life is threatened and Aubrey sticks by his side, they go from hook up to something more. Can Bennett really trust the journalist in his bed? Or is Aubrey’s true goal to end the Davenport dynasty for good? One family saga, three emotional romances. Read the completed series today.
