Book excerpt: It’s about to be a very Merry Christmas… Olive: Moving to Wolf Valley has been the best decision of my life. It’s the perfect place to run my bakery and it’s also where I meet Xavier Grady, the man of my dreams. He’s tall, grumpy, and guarded, my opposite in almost every way, but none of that matters to me. I know that he has secrets and that he’s wounded from his time in the military, but that only makes me want to break down his walls even more. Xavier: I was finally starting to get used to being back in this small town. Then Olive Baker moves in across the street from me and flips my life upside down. I thought I liked my boring life and sleepy town, but now, I’m not so sure. There’s something addictive about the curvy little spitfire that I can’t seem to resist. I know that nothing could happen between us because she could never want a grumpy scrooge like me, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting her. When I finally confess how I feel about her, will it end up being too late, or am I about to get everything that I ever wanted this Christmas?

Download or read book Screwed written by Thom Hartmann and published by Berrett-Koehler Publishers. This book was released on 2007-04-28 with total page 285 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the bestselling author and XM and Sirius Satellite radio host heard on more than eighty radio stations coast to coast seven days a week Reveals how the middle class, nurtured as the backbone of democracy by our Founding Fathers, is being undermined by so-called conservatives Shows how we can reverse the erosion of the middle class and restore the egalitarian vision of the Founders Expanded edition with a new chapter on immigration and a new afterword by Greg Palast The American middle class is on its deathbed. Ordinary folks who put in a solid day's work can no longer afford to buy a house, send their kids to college, or even get sick. If you're not a CEO, you're probably screwed. America wasn't meant to be like this. Air America Radio host Thom Hartmann shows that our Founding Fathers worked hard to ensure that a small group of wealthy people would never dominate this country--they'd had enough of aristocracy. They put policies in place to ensure a thriving middle class. When the middle class took a hit, beginning in the post-Civil War Gilded Age and culminating in the Great Depression, democracy-loving leaders like Theodore and Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, and Dwight Eisenhower revitalized it through initiatives like antitrust regulations, fair labor laws, the minimum wage, Social Security, and Medicare. So what happened? In the last twenty-five years, we've witnessed an undeclared war against the middle class. The so-called conservatives waging this war are only interested in conserving--and steadily increasing--their own wealth and power. Hartmann shows how, under the guise of "freeing" the market, they've systematically dismantled the programs set up by Republicans and Democrats to protect the middle class and have installed policies that favor the superrich and corporations. But it's not too late to return to the America our Founders envisioned. Hartmann outlines a series of commonsense proposals that will ensure that our public institutions are not turned into private fiefdoms and that people's basic needs--education, health care, a living wage--are met in a way that allows the middle class to expand, not shrink. America will be stronger with a growing, prospering middle class--rule by the rich will only make it weaker. Democracy requires a fair playing field, and it will survive only if We the People stand up, speak out, and reclaim our democratic birthright.
