Book excerpt: The scene is Colombia, 1996. A young American, Gabriel Ferrero, is staying in the town of Nueva Vida to do some soul searching after graduating from college. A bit disillusioned and lost, he is eager to discover a renewed sense of meaning in his life, and does so by securing a job teaching English. All goes well for Gabriel until the socio-political crisis in Colombia suddenly rocks the once quiet and remote Nueva Vida. The recent college grad quickly gets caught in the middle of the upheaval and becomes a powerless victim of the forces threatening to tear Colombian society apart. When an army is sent to quell the turbulent events unfolding in Nueva Vida, things turn worse for Gabriel and others seeking to find a solution to the myriad problems they are facing. The survival of Gabriel, the town, and perhaps the country are soon thereafter in the hands of a few powerful individuals.

Book excerpt: The brutal murder of a teenager and a deadly medical drama plunge a small-town sheriff into a vortex of treachery and greed in the debut novel of Emery Hayes's A Nicole Cobain Mystery series. First female sheriff of Toole County, Montana Nicole Cobain earned the position through mental and physical grit and when a young girl is found murdered on icy Lake Maria, every bit of it is tested. But what begins as a chase for the killer quickly unravels into a high stakes medical transaction with harrowing consequences. Eight years ago, Nicole fled her fast-track position as a homicide detective with the Denver Police Department in an act of desperation to save both her son and herself. Answering a recruitment ad, she showed up in the foothills of Glacier National Park and was elected sheriff six years later. She has a measure of peace in her new surroundings, her son is thriving, and she has effectively distanced herself from her past. Until Benjamin Kris shows up again. Benjamin is the father of Nicole's son and a big-time charmer who has quickly scaled the crime ladder. He has a large clientele and is looking forward to a big pay day that lands him in Toole. But when it becomes clear he could be a suspect among several others in town with opportunity and motive, it's up to Nicole to sift through the tangled threads to find the killer before they strike again.

As case facts turn to fiction, Ryan and Alex grow closer, and before long, they find both their hearts and lives are on the line. Sure of One He’s a billionaire and CEO of a weapons manufacturer. He’s used to getting whatever he wants. And he wants her. She’s a therapist. A recovered drug addict who has devoted her life to helping others recover. She wants nothing to do with him. A mutual friend pulls them together, insisting she’s the one who can help his daughter recover from trauma.

Book excerpt: She’s one indulgence this single-dad CEO can’t have. Or can he? Jack Sullivan is a man of few words. His cold emotionless countenance shields any glimpse of the human being within. If he didn’t hire me to help his daughter, I’d suspect the man sold his soul for success. He’s classically handsome. Confident. Scratch that. He’s one cocky mo-fo. Admittedly, I don’t have the best track record at picking decent guys, but I’m pretty positive this brooding billionaire with a massive ego is one flashing red warning light. I agree with his unorthodox plan to move into his home as a favor to a mutual friend. Plus, I need the money and his offer is one I can’t refuse, not when the rehabilitation center I founded is running in the red. The egotistical businessman flat-out told me everyone has a price. The longer I spend in his oceanfront mansion surrounded by gun-toting security and closed-door meetings, the question I find myself asking is, what is mine? Sure of One is a steamy billionaire, forbidden romantic suspense featuring an illicit contract between a former military alpha silver fox and his daughter’s therapist. Sure of One is the second standalone romance in the Arrow Tactical Series and is part of the Wolf trilogy, a modern-day take on Little Red Riding Hood. The stories are designed so that they can be read without reading prior books, but to ensure the absence of spoilers, it is recommended the trilogy be read in order.

Their treacherous journey, filled with both heartbreak and hope, begins in Tijuana, where they are transported from house to house by strangers. Here they meet the mysterious smuggler el Güero, who promises to lead the young family through the mountains and the scorching heat of the desert and beyond. Can he prove himself by keeping them safe during the crossing? Will America be the country of dreams like they imagined? Or will adjusting to their new life in California be another type of struggle for Gricelda and her family? With captivating illustrations inspired by the graffiti and stencil art prevalent during the 2006 political uprising in Oaxaca, as well as local textiles and embroidery, Travesía is Gricelda’s first-person account, derived from interviews with author Michelle Gerster and told in both English and Spanish, of crossing the Mexico-US border.

Download or read book Environmental Gerontology in Europe and Latin America written by Diego Sánchez-González and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-03 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book looks at the relationships between the physical-social environment and the elderly in Europe and Latin America, from the Environmental Gerontology perspective and through geographical and psychosocial approaches. It addresses the main environmental issues of population ageing, based on an understanding of the complex relationships, adjustments and adaptations between different environments (home, residence, public spaces, landscapes, neighbourhoods, urban and rural environment) and the quality of life of the ageing population, associated with residential strategies and other aspects related to health and dependency. The different levels of socio-spatial analysis are also explored: macro (urban and rural environments, regions and landscapes), meso (neighbourhood, public space) and micro (personal, home and institution). New theoretical and methodological approaches are proposed to analyse the attributes and functions of the physical-social environment of the elderly, as well as new ways of living the ageing process. All will have to respond to the challenges of urbanisation, globalisation and climate change in the 21st century. Also, the different experiences and challenges of public planning and management professionals involved with the growing ageing population are presented, and will require greater association and collaboration with the academic and scientific fields of Environmental Gerontology.

Book excerpt: This case will change their lives. Ryan “Wolf” is an Ex Navy SEAL and the founder of a black ops security firm. He’s never considered himself the settling-down type. He’s barely been a sufficient brother to the sister who needs him. But, he’s the best at his job. He never fails. Alexandra is an assistant professor of behavioral psychology and a budding criminologist. Having grown up in the shadows of her infamous father, she’s determined to make it on her own and she’s moved to another country to do it. When the two are pulled together by a mutual friend to help find his missing daughter, it’s a race against time. There’s no ransom. No demands. Only a father with unlimited means demands that both the media and the FBI stay out of it. Ryan finds the keen, observant, stubborn woman to be far too distracting. She’s a novice, and as such is a risk, one he’d rather not take. Alex is intimated by the hulking stern man with ice blue eyes and a perma-scowl, but she’s determined to prove her worth. As case facts turn to fiction, a searing attraction obliterates first impressions. Despite themselves, they grow closer. The case twists and turns. Within days, their hearts and lives are on the line. Wolf and Alex expect to use every skill at their disposal to solve the case. What they don’t expect is for their discovery to change them forever. Better to See You, the first book in the Arrow Tactical Security series, is a steamy, suspenseful, standalone romance full of heat and mystery featuring a hot former SEAL and the female sleuth who captures his heart.
