Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In "The Price of Passion," readers are introduced to Julia and Maya, two women whose lives represent the extremes of modern society's approach to love and fulfilment. Julia, a woman who has slept with numerous partners, represents the archetype of someone continually seeking satisfaction in external validation and materialistic gains. Her story is one of fleeting encounters and a relentless quest for something more, leading her down a path of emotional and psychological turmoil. Despite her many relationships with men from various walks of life - businessmen, politicians, thugs, spiritual healers - Julia finds herself trapped in a cycle of emptiness and longing. In stark contrast, Maya leads a life of purpose and direction. Focused on her career and personal growth, Maya's journey as a successful lawyer and her stable marriage to Dwayne, a businessman with a complex past, offers a different perspective on love and success. The narrative weaves these two lives together, examining how different choices lead to vastly different outcomes. It touches on themes of self-worth, the illusion of happiness through materialism, and the transformative power of self-reflection and redemption. The story reaches its climax when Julia, now at a crossroads, must confront the consequences of her past and seek a new path toward healing and fulfilment. "The Price of Passion" is not just a story about love and relationships; it's a reflection on the choices we make and how they shape our lives. It is a poignant reminder that the pursuit of passion without purpose can exact a heavy toll, and that true contentment often lies in the paths less taken and the quiet satisfaction of inner growth and stability.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every sport has its heroes and villains, moments of triumph, and heartbreak. Soccer, or football as it is known to much of the world, is a sport that transcends borders, languages, and cultures. It is a universal language that speaks to the hearts and minds of millions, bringing people together in a shared love for the beautiful game. However, with such passion and dedication comes great responsibility and, at times, unimaginable consequences. "The Price of Passion: The Andrés Escobar Story" delves into the life and tragic death of one of Colombia's most beloved soccer players, Andrés Escobar. Born in Medellín, Colombia, Escobar was a talented and dedicated athlete who quickly rose through the professional soccer ranks to become a key defender for his club team, Atlético Nacional, and the Colombian national team. His skill and sportsmanship earned him the nickname "The Gentleman of Soccer," reflecting his commitment to fair play and humble nature. In this book, we will follow Escobar's journey from his humble beginnings to the pinnacle of his soccer career, as he prepared to represent his country on the world stage at the 1994 FIFA World Cup. Through personal anecdotes, interviews with those who knew him best, and a deep exploration of Colombia's cultural and political landscape during that time, we will gain a deeper understanding of the pressures and expectations placed upon Escobar and his teammates. But this is not just a story of soccer. It is a tale of love, loyalty, and the harsh realities that sometimes accompany the pursuit of one's dreams. The events that unfolded during and after the 1994 World Cup would ultimately lead to Escobar's untimely death, sending shockwaves through the soccer community and beyond. His murder at the hands of a gunman, allegedly in retaliation for an own goal he had scored during the tournament, serves as a stark reminder of the darker side of passion and the high price that can be paid for success and failure. As we turn the pages of this book, we will witness the rise and fall of a true soccer icon, whose life was cut tragically short by the sport he loved. In doing so, we will also explore the complex intersection of sport, culture, and politics that shaped the life and legacy of Andrés Escobar. We will come to understand that his story is not just one of individual tragedy but a reflection of the power, beauty, and sometimes devastating consequences of the world's most popular sport. Welcome to "The Price of Passion: The Andrés Escobar Story."

Book excerpt: I’m on top of the world while hurtling toward rock bottom. With my life unraveling around me, the only safe way forward is alone… I’ll do whatever I can to help someone. Your charity needs a million dollars? You’ll have it tomorrow. America’s underprivileged youth in need of new school supplies? Done. After a childhood of loss and financial stress, nobody is more motivated to save the world than me, Damian Fairchild, CTO of Fairchild Enterprises. So when my best buddy from high school wants me to hire his little sister—the very same curvaceous little sister I fought like hell not to notice as a kid—I can’t tell him no. Of course I say “She’ll start tomorrow,” like the helpful sap I am. Now that my business is in the crosshairs of the SEC, I’ve got to watch my step, stay alert. So Jessa Walton’s incomparable hotness is a distressing distraction. Not to mention the knack she’s got for drawing me out of my shell. She doesn’t understand that the idea of us—together—has “NO!” written all over it. She wants all of me, but I don’t give that to anyone. I can only be a jerk to her for so long, though, before Jessa’s sweet sunshine sets me ablaze. Can you blame me? I’ve been secretly in love with her since my junior year of high school, which makes it easy to break my number one rule—Trust no one and keep your heart out of it. In the middle of so much stress and uncertainty, I should know better than to enjoy a ray of sunshine. Sunny days never last. When the heat from the investigation turns up and my empire is rattled by another big blow, I’m questioning whether Jessa is actually a thunderstorm disguised as a cloudless sky. Giving in to that burning passion has a steep price. Letting down my guard might cost me everything my brothers and I have worked to build. Billionaires. Bad boys. Bleeding hearts. These outsiders are known as the Bad Boys of Wall Street and every book in the series features glittering Manhattan skyscrapers, swoon-worthy heroes, and a guaranteed HEA.

Download or read book The Passion Economy written by Adam Davidson and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The brilliant creator of NPR's Planet Money podcast and award-winning New Yorker staff writer explains our current economy: laying out its internal logic and revealing the transformative hope it offers for millions of people to thrive as they never have before. Contrary to what you may have heard, the middle class is not dying and robots are not stealing our jobs. In fact, writes Adam Davidson—one of our leading public voices on economic issues—the twenty-first-century economic paradigm offers new ways of making money, fresh paths toward professional fulfillment, and unprecedented opportunities for curious, ambitious individuals to combine the things they love with their careers. Drawing on the stories of average people doing exactly this—an accountant overturning his industry, a sweatshop owner's daughter fighting for better working conditions, an Amish craftsman meeting the technological needs of Amish farmers—as well as the latest academic research, Davidson shows us how the twentieth-century economy of scale has given way in this century to an economy of passion. He makes clear, too, that though the adjustment has brought measures of dislocation, confusion, and even panic, these are most often the result of a lack of understanding. The Passion Economy delineates the ground rules of the new economy, and armed with these, we begin to see how we can succeed in it according to its own terms—intimacy, insight, attention, automation, and, of course, passion. An indispensable road map and a refreshingly optimistic take on our economic future.
Download or read book Trials of Passion written by Lisa Appignanesi and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A journey into the heart of dark passions and the crimes they impel. When passion is in the picture, what is criminal, what is sane, what is mad or simply bad? Through court and asylum records, letters and newspaper accounts, this book brings to life some sensational trials between 1870 and 1914, a period when the psychiatric professions were consolidating their hold on our understanding of what is human. Outside fiction, individual emotions and the inner life had rarely been publicly discussed: now, in an increasingly popular press and its courtroom reports, people avidly consumed accounts of transgressive sexuality, savage jealousy and forbidden desires. These stood revealed as aspects not only of those labelled mad, but potentially, of everyone. With great story-telling flair and a wealth of historical detail, Lisa Appignanesi teases out the vagaries of passion and the clashes between the law and the clinic as they stumble towards a (sometimes reviled) collaboration. Sexual etiquette and class roles, attitudes to love, madness and gender, notions of respectability and honor, insanity and lunacy, all are at play in that vital forum in which public opinion is shaped—the theater of the courtroom.
