Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ex Ops Series: Second Chance Romance with a hint of Suspense Some mistakes from the past haunt us forever... unless fate steps in with a second chance. One 'Dear John' letter haunted Bobby Baker's every living moment. It was the letter he'd stupidly written to his high school sweetheart, Belle, right after he had left to join the Army. The letter in which he'd told her that he wasn't so sure they were ready for forever yet. Before he could let her know that the letter, and his second thoughts, were nothing more than a mistake, she disappeared from the small Georgia town they had both been raised in. Fifteen years after the letter, Belle unknowingly walked back into Bobby's life when her job as an ATF Agent forced her to work with a group of men secretly headed by the CIA to help her track down whoever was involved in funneling black market weapons to a drug cartel in Mexico. Bobby planned to use this mission to try to soothe Belle's hurt feelings while proving to her that their love was meant to be forever. He would use every dirty trick he'd learned since he had joined the Army to maneuver her back into his life for the long haul. Belle was not making it easy, though, as she continued to keep him at arm's length in the hopes that mistakes of her own would never come to light. Warning: Mature themes, second chance romance and a secret baby! <- You've been warned.

Fictitious Praise and Reviews for Cliché by Aaron Patterson & Nora Robb “If you could only read one book this year you MUST read Cliché. It over promises and under delivers… masterful in so many ways!” —James Patterson, #1 international bestselling author of over a million, billion novels in every genre “Cliché will be the next blockbuster movie of all time, and I will produce it, or my name isn’t Mark Wahlberg!” —Mark Wahlberg, World famous actor, and the producer of just about every show out there worth watching “Aaron Patterson? Never heard of her…” —Chuck Norris “GGWWWRGHH… AARRGWWWGGHHAA.” —Chewbacca (Chewie) “This novel terrified me. I found myself up late at night thinking about it why the Dark Tower series is taking so long to be made into a movie—You made sure to put in a plug for the Dark Tower movie right? Just making sure…” —Stephen King, #1 New York Times bestselling author and all around good guy “After reading Cliché last night I stayed up all night and wrote 42 new songs!” —Taylor Swift “I would love to write a thriller…” —J.K. Rowling, Author of the Harry Potter series and I think one other book “If I were to write a book about myself, it would have to stand at a 45 degree angle and pause for dramatic effect just before putting on a pair of sunglasses. Looks like Cliché closes the book on that deal…………………………… lets just hope there is enough paper to print the masterpiece.” —Horatio Caine, CSI Miami “If I ever was going to read a book, I’d read Cliché. I’ve got to go but—I’ll be back!” —Arnold Schwarzenegger “I laughed so hard that I wet myself!” —Jimmy Fallon

Book excerpt: How does coding change the way we think about architecture? This question opens up an important research perspective. In this book, Miro Roman and his AI Alice_ch3n81 develop a playful scenario in which they propose coding as the new literacy of information.

Focusing on the intersection of information technology and architectural formulation, the authors create an evolving intellectual reflection on digital architecture and computer science.

Book excerpt: A blueprint for how parents can stop worrying about their children’s future and start helping them prepare for it, from the cofounder and CEO of one of America’s most innovative public-school networks “A treasure trove of deeply practical wisdom that accords with everything I know about how children thrive.”—Angela Duckworth, New York Times bestselling author of Grit In 2003, Diane Tavenner cofounded the first school in what would soon become one of America’s most innovative public-school networks. Summit Public Schools has since won national recognition for its exceptional outcomes: Ninety-nine percent of students are accepted to a four-year college, and they graduate from college at twice the national average. But in a radical departure from the environments created by the college admissions arms race, Summit students aren’t focused on competing with their classmates for rankings or test scores. Instead, students spend their days solving real-world problems and developing the skills of self-direction, collaboration, and reflection, all of which prepare them to succeed in college, thrive in today’s workplace, and lead a secure and fulfilled life. Through personal stories and hard-earned lessons from Summit’s exceptional team of educators and diverse students, Tavenner shares the learning philosophies underlying the Summit model and offers a blueprint for any parent who wants to stop worrying about their children’s future—and start helping them prepare for it. At a time when many students are struggling to regain educational and developmental ground lost to the disruptions of the pandemic, Prepared is more urgent and necessary than ever.

Each quote gives the movie title, production company, year of release, speaker of the line, and, when appropriate, a comment putting the quote in context.
