He's the Smuggest, Sexiest Most Arrogant Man I've Ever Met and He's Totally Off-Limits An Alpha Male That Wants His Way Jacob Joshua Edwards is my sworn enemy. I've hated him for years; even though I've always been slightly attracted to him. When my father's business goes under he makes a deal with Jacob's father to save the company. Only the deal is not one that benefits the family in my eyes. My father makes an arrangement that his eldest daughter, my sister, will marry Jake so that the deal becomes a merger as opposed to a takeover. A Rebel With A Cause As far as I'm concerned the merger is the worst thing that can happen to the family and I'm determined to find my own way in life. I plan to escape the night after the big celebration, but I allow myself one confrontation with Jacob to let him know what I really think about him. Only nothing goes according to plan. Soon I'm caught up with him in a way I never expected. Secrets, Lies, & Even Hotter Nights Jacob has a proposal for me that is very tempting. One that could enable me to help my family and stop the merger. However, Jacob is playing a high stakes game that I'm not quite ready for. As bombshell secrets and lies make their way to the surface, I'm left wondering if I'm a contestant in the game, or a pawn that's being played.

They and their friends experience the fun and frustrations of their final year in the controlled environment of public education. They move through the nine-month school year dealing with academics, sports, romance, religion, friendships, social mores, and their futures. They are growing from adolescence to early adulthood, with all the ups and downs that come with that transition. Marc was born a Weirtonian, a town whose tradition places great emphasis on winning, working, and achievement. Jamie has just arrived from Birmingham, England, following her fathers career in the mushrooming global steel industry. She is adjusting to life in the United States, its fast pace and the abundance of everything. Together they travel through the trials of going from seventeen to eighteen and the prospect of the inevitablematurity. The unique small-town atmosphere adds to the unexpected twist and turns that is their final year of youth. They respond in many ways together but just as many in opposite directions. As they reach the final days and events of high school, everything is falling into place and is in sync, then . . .

Download or read book The Sky Beneath My Feet written by Lisa Samson and published by Thomas Nelson. This book was released on 2013-03-04 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Being married to a saint isn't what it's cracked up to be. Beth's husband won't be joining the family on vacation at the beach this year. He's not even joining them in the house. Instead, Rick has holed up alone in the backyard shed. Nobody knows exactly what he's up to. Maybe he's immersing himself in prayer. Maybe he's lost his mind. Maybe he's even the modern-day prophet or the saint the neighborhood artist imagines him to be. But while "St. Rick" waits for an epiphany, Beth will have to figure out what to do with herself and their teenage sons, possibly for the rest of her life. What happens next is both uproarious and bittersweet: a peace march turns violent, her son is caught with drugs, and she embarks on an ambitious road trip that turns into something nearly surreal. Will Beth rediscover the idealistic woman she used to be, once upon a time? Can her marriage survive Rick's backyard vigil? Will anything ever be the same? And should it be? Truthful, comic, heartbreaking, and magical in the very best sense of the word, The Sky Beneath My Feet gently tears the veil off our egos and expectations to reveal the throbbing, redemptive, and achingly beautiful life beyond and within us. "The Sky Beneath My Feet is bright but unassuming. The protagonist totally enchants both one's spirit and one's mind with her shrewd insights and gentle humility. This is Samson at her best!" —Phyllis Tickle, author of Emergence Christianity
