Tucker Hammond has been adrift since his best friend told him he wasn’t going to rejoin the rodeo circuit after an injury that brought them both home to small town Ivory Peaks. Tuck needs another client to train and manage, because he’s slowly suffocating by staying in one place for so long. He needs purpose and a sense of fulfillment. His father reminds him that he still hasn’t done anything with his inheritance, as all Hammonds are given a large sum of money and tasked to do something good with it. He’s helping his CEO cousin when he runs into Bobbie Jo Hanks–literally. He spills his soda all over her, and her fiery, salty personality lights up his whole world. So it’s no wonder that he rushes to get her a fresh set of clothes…and then plans a date. Thankfully, she’s broken up with her long-distance boyfriend now, and Tuck’s long-time crush can finally be realized. As they explore their budding romance through rooftop picnics and hikes in the Rocky Mountains, it's clear their connection runs deeper than friendship. But then, an exciting new rodeo client has Tuck packing his bags again. He’s not sure how to blend his desire to build a rodeo training and management empire and give Bobbie Jo the safety and security of a home. Good thing he has all that money… But Bobbie Jo resists the idea of Tuck buying his way into her life. Can she work through her reservations to realize he’s not trying to buy her love–he’s offering her a home and his heart? And, before it’s too late, can Tuck realize that the greatest journey of all is the one that leads him back to Bobbie Jo’s side? Join Tucker and Bobbi Jo as they come together in HIS NINTH PROMISE, the next installment in the captivating Ivory Peaks series. Immerse yourself in the powerful Hammond Family saga and experience the romance, resilience, and faith that this compelling series is known for.

Download or read book Pumpkin written by Cindy Ott and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 343 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do so many Americans drive for miles each autumn to buy a vegetable that they are unlikely to eat? While most people around the world eat pumpkin throughout the year, North Americans reserve it for holiday pies and other desserts that celebrate the harvest season and the rural past. They decorate their houses with pumpkins every autumn and welcome Halloween trick-or-treaters with elaborately carved jack-o'-lanterns. Towns hold annual pumpkin festivals featuring giant pumpkins and carving contests, even though few have any historic ties to the crop. In this fascinating cultural and natural history, Cindy Ott tells the story of the pumpkin. Beginning with the myth of the first Thanksgiving, she shows how Americans have used the pumpkin to fulfull their desire to maintain connections to nature and to the family farm of lore, and, ironically, how small farms and rural communities have been revitalized in the process. And while the pumpkin has inspired American myths and traditions, the pumpkin itself has changed because of the ways people have perceived, valued, and used it. Pumpkin is a smart and lively study of the deep meanings hidden in common things and their power to make profound changes in the world around us.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning photographer Peter Guttman showcases the vibrant and wildly diverse American people in an unprecedented, multi-decade collection of sharply etched portraits Like few nations, the United States flourished through the hard work and enterprising creativity of individuals from myriad identities. These cultural strands––along with sprinklings of imagination, eccentricity, even skullduggery––weave together an entertaining narrative of a fascinating country. American Character offers readers a peek into the seldom viewed worlds of Buddhist monks, "freak show" performers, and nuclear physicists, and an opportunity to tag along on the quests of gold miners and Bigfoot hunters. Diving into the ethnic enclaves of Yupik hunters, Amish farmers, Hopi elders, native Hawaiian storytellers, and Hasidic bakery owners, the book also trains a lens on distant or underseen communities to cobble together an unforgettable American landscape. Driven by an explorer’s fearless instinct for investigating obscure cultures and hidden corners in all fifty states, photographer and journalist Peter Guttman presents this richly visual parade in stunning color photography, accompanied with evocative, deeply researched prose. Almost encyclopedic in scope, a dizzying array of arresting occupational niches and lifestyles are presented and enhanced with intriguing personal backstories, winding connections, and amusing historical tales. When each half of a polarized country seems to view the other half with deep suspicions, American Character may provide a healing balm and offer much deeper understanding of the vast spectrum of Americans and our mutual aspirations.
