Nicole has been warned that Mark Allen is difficult to work for, but when she starts her position as his secretary at Allen Brothers Legal, she's not prepared for quite how rude and hostile he is... And she hadn't expected him to be so attractive either. Mark is the youngest of the partners at the firm, and he's determined to make it on his own. He's adamant that he doesn't need a secretary, and he'll do anything he can to get rid of her. There's something different about Nicole though, and try as he might, she just keeps springing back. As Nicole steadfastly holds her own against Mark's put-downs, he grows increasingly disarmed, and the attraction between them sizzles. It's soon clear that they can't resist each other forever... but what will that mean for Nicole's role at the firm, and can she be more to Mark than just another fling? With the perfect balance of tension and desire (and, of course, a happily ever after!), The Secretary's Boss is a steamy romance about attraction too strong to be ignored.

Download or read book Pronoun Envy written by Anna Livia and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-11-30 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Controversy over gendered pronouns, for example using the generic "he," has been a staple of feminist arguments about patriarchal language over the last 30 years, and is certainly the most contested political issue in Western feminist linguistics. Most accounts do not extend beyond policy issues like the official institution of non-sexist language. In this volume, Anna Livia reveals continuities both before and after the sexist language refore movement and shows how the creative practices of pronoun use on the part of feminist writers had both aesthetic and political ends. Livia uses the term "pronoun envy" ironically to show that rather being a case of misguided envy, battles over gendered language are central to feminist concerns. Livia examines a broad corpus of written texts in English and French, concentrating on those texts which problematize the traditional functioning of the linguistic gender system. They range from novels and prose poems to film scripts and personal testimonies, and in time from the 19th century to the present. Some withhold any indication of gender; others have non-gendered characters. Livia's goal is two-fold; to help bridge the divide between linguistic and literary analysis, and to show how careful study of the manipulation of linguistic gender in these texts informs larger concerns. This fresh and highly interdisciplinary work lies at the intersection of several vital areas, including language and gender, sociolinguistics, and feminist literary analysis.

Book excerpt: Monty Rosenberg was a sublimely and ruthlessly selfish man, who gave joy to others by accident, pursuing all the while his own luxurious aims. From the day of his birth until this lamentable evening in September he had never wished to benefit anybody but himself. He lived to and for himself, and this beautiful home had been made for his own delight; and yet the inscrutable ways of life had performed a seeming miracle, and Monty was tonight a mere voiceless child obeying the decrees of circumstance. He was preparing to entertain his guests in a mood of solemn and magistral calm. He thought nothing at all of their pleasure or their envy. He was as much above snobbery as he was below compassion. But he had created an atmosphere of gorgeous appropriateness to the marvels of the human heart, and the gloomy night furnished a contrast as violent as the most emotional person in the world could have desired. He had prepared a stir of color which must affect all those who were to be present upon this occasion.
