Excluding his high school years in Holly, Idaho, he’s never settled in one place. Building his engineering company requires a lot of travel, so when he returns to Holly to visit his aunt and pay a decade-old parking ticket, he’s not planning to stay for Christmas. The judge’s ruling changes that—he’s assigned community service at an animal shelter requiring his skills. Former lawyer Tess Evans moved home to pursue her true calling—managing the Forever Home Animal Shelter. The shelter is chronically underfunded and understaffed. So, to raise money and awareness, she organizes a ‘Home for the Holidays’ adoption event at Holly’s Christmas festival. Getting a skilled volunteer at such a critical time is a gift and Tess takes full advantage. Their to-do list is long, and not falling in love is number one. As their attraction grows, they keep forgetting Jason’s stay in Holly is temporary. Can Tess, a lonely terrier named Neville and some Christmas magic change his mind?

Download or read book Boats in My Blood written by Barrie Farrell and published by Harbour Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-19 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Farrell name is respected all along the British Columbia coast. Barrie’s father, Allen Farrell, was a much loved eccentric who created offshore sailing vessels from beachcombed lumber using only basic hand tools. Barrie built his first boat in his early teens using only a dull handsaw, a rusty block plane and an old hammer with one claw. Despite his Grade Six education, Barrie became one of the leading innovators when fibreglass first became available. His designs incorporated flowing curves and shaped details that were not possible with wood. Barrie was one of the first to realize that modern fishboats needed to be fast, and consequently, his gillnetters and trollers dominated the BC salmon fleet in the 1970s and 1980s. By the late 1990s, he had built over 300 commercial and pleasure boats and left a profound stamp on West Coast boat building. Boats in My Blood isn’t just about the boats. Barrie also shares the story of his life—the highs and the lows. His memories of growing up in Pender Harbour provide an amusing picture of fishing village life in the 1950s, and his sharp eye for character makes for many amusing anecdotes. He is frank about his periodic bouts of overzealous partying and his bad business dealings, but through it all his engaging character and unquenchable good nature shine through. Boats in My Blood is a fascinating chronicle of a life devoted to the art of the boat.

Book excerpt: After ten years spent riddling over the intricacies of church/state law from the ivory tower, law professor Jay Wexler decided it was high time to hit the road to learn what really happened in some of the most controversial Supreme Court cases involving this hot-button issue. In Holy Hullabaloos, he takes us along for the ride, crossing the country to meet the people and visit the places responsible for landmark decisions in recent judicial history, from a high school football field where fans once recited prayers before kickoff to a Santeria church notorious for animal sacrifice, from a publicly funded Muslim school to a creationist museum. Wexler's no-holds-barred approach to investigating famous church/state brouhahas is as funny as it is informative.

Book excerpt: He was supposed to be unattainable—but the circumstances have changed… If there is anything April understands, it’s that it is only safe to foster feelings for people she can’t have. By focusing her romantic attention on unattainable people, she will never risk getting hurt by opening herself up to true love. This has worked perfectly for years. While her married best friends Gavin and Jillian have been in a relationship since high school, April has satisfied herself with adoring them both secretly—and making sure never to rock their happy boat. But when a persistent customer won’t stop making advances on April at work, she finds herself in a conundrum. If she tells him firmly that she isn’t interested in spending time with him, then she risks losing her job by angering a harmless customer. Alternatively, if she gives him an inch so he’ll leave her alone for the rest of her shift, then he takes a mile. When Gavin and Jillian offer for Gavin to serve as April’s fake boyfriend for a day, the decision seems like an easy one. The customer will see she’s already been claimed by someone, and he’ll abandon his pursuit from then on. But what should be a simple plan instead forces secrets to come to light that April never anticipated—and they’re going to change everything. Strings Attached is a 20,000-word bisexual contemporary romance novella. It features an M/F main pairing in the context of an M/F1 and M/F2 polyamorous vee.

Download or read book All That Glitters written by Thomas Tryon and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2013-09-24 with total page 744 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The interlocking lives of five Hollywood leading ladies spawn “tragedies, dark doings, jealousies, murder, passion on the grand scale” (Chicago Tribune). Charlie Caine has been to too many Hollywood funerals. The studio system is long gone, and its stars—some forgotten, some preserved for display on a late-night show—are beginning to pass on, as well. Only a few turn out for the final performance of Babe Austrian, a peroxide-blond beauty whose red-hot talkies changed the way America thought about sex. As he gazes into her coffin, Caine remembers Babe as she was: a dynamite beauty with secrets that could have burned Hollywood to the ground. In Babe and four other interlocking novellas, Caine recalls the leading ladies of long-lost Hollywood: Belinda, whose daughter was as cruel as she was lovely; Claire, who would do anything to stay in the public eye; April, fragile, beautiful, and mad; and Maude, Hollywood’s most respected matron, whose happy marriage had a lie at its heart. Charlie Caine knows where cinema’s bodies are buried, and he’s anxious to start digging.
