Book excerpt: Discover you dark side… They say I have a dark side. They aren’t wrong. They say I am the devil. They aren’t wrong. As the owner of an exclusive BDSM club, Decadent Sins, Master Zeus was respected and loved by many. As The Slayer, the Boss of the National Crime Syndicate, Kings, Inc, Torin Caruso elicited terror in most. But never the twain had met … and for as long as he had control over the double lives he lived … they never would. To date, he’d kept his true identity from those who vied to end the reign of the most feared Crime Lord. …Until she arrived at the club. Dakota Harris, a snoopy FBI Agent, who stuck her snippy little nose in where it didn’t belong. He’d be damned if a woman destroyed the secret he’d worked so hard to keep. Before she realized her mistake and could retreat, he’d strung her up and taught her a lesson she’d never forget. Now, all he had to do was to keep her under his Dominant spell to ensure she kept her pouty mouth shut. Except, he’d come to find her a conundrum; was she a sly serpent or a sensual submissive? Had the mighty Master of Decadent Sins finally met his match? Editor’s Note: Hot! Hot! Hot! This is one of those “this is so hot, I can’t put it down but I also need a cold shower to keep from combusting” type of reads! Torin is fire! Dakota is his perfect match … and their chemistry is … oh, just divine.

Download or read book Confronting Academic Mobbing in Higher Education Personal Accounts and Administrative Action written by Crawford, Caroline M. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2019-09-27 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic mobbing, a bullying behavior that targets a specific faculty member, is growing in higher education. It is a dangerous phenomenon that often attacks competent researchers and scholars who are ethical, outspoken in support of others, and normally reflect professional achievement that is coveted, resented, and perceived as intimidating by lesser faculty and administrators. Therefore, it is important to understand how academic mobbing begins, expands amongst faculty and administrators, is actually supported by faculty and administrators by either proactive efforts or actively ignoring, and results in a weakening of the higher education institution due to the reputation being detrimentally, and many times irreparably, impacted. Confronting Academic Mobbing in Higher Education: Personal Accounts and Administrative Action is an essential research publication that provides comprehensive research on the development of academic mobbing as a prevalent form of bullying within higher education and seeks to explore solutions and provide support for professionals currently dealing with this phenomenon. Highlighting a range of topics such as ethics, faculty outcomes, and narcissism, this book is ideal for higher education faculty, deans, department chairs, provosts, chancellors, university presidents, rectors, administrators, academicians, researchers, human resources faculty, policymakers, and academic leaders.
