Download or read book The Saturday Night Everlasting written by David Alan Dedin and published by Fulton Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2021-09-23 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thirty years ago, Alan, Patrick, and Guinevere-"the Trio"-became the best of friends while stealing from Checker's Casual Cafe, the busiest restaurant in town. But the trio didn't just take money-what happened in '91 was no less than diabolical. Cicadas attacked customers, out-of-hand pranks collapsed the kitchen ceiling, and the Phantom of the Restaurant brought havoc to the dining room-all against a background of blaring eighties music. Sharon Donovan, the restaurant's general manager, was literally ready to kill someone when police were finally called. Fifteen years later, Guinevere is mortally wounded in a horrific car accident. As Alan and Patrick rush to her side, her deathbed confession is chilling: "The worst thing about my depression is that it has a sense of humor." In her dying breath, Gwen asks Alan to take care of Stephanie, her teenage daughter-"As you once took care of me, when we all worked together at Checker's." And as Steph brings back memories of the best time in his life, Alan makes a very bad decision... But karma is a bitch, and Patrick's arrest on returning to his Nevada home makes national news. His frantic cry for help sends Alan and Stephanie on a cross-country trip-where evidence reveals a disturbing connection between the Trio that began years before Checker's. It's eerie how current events mirror those from decades ago, and past-and-present stories play out side by side. Without Alan's help, Patrick will go to prison...but as Sharon Donovan learned the hard way, it's often those you trust the most who blindside you with their behaviors... No matter how far you run, the past will always catch up with you. And once it does, it will serve a dish best cold.

Women's Studies. The poems in Mik Grantham's debut collection, HARDCORE, are deceptively simple, darkly funny, and as unforgettable as a nagging toothache. Grantham confronts grief in myriad forms; the loss of innocence coincides with the loss of a tooth; a relationship decays and is uprooted alongside ruminative dog walks and soul-crushing waitressing shifts. It is Mik Grantham's refusal to wallow in the dour, her embrace of the grotesque and the unfortunate situations served up to her by life, that allow the underlying love and hope in these poems to shine through.

Billionaire Devlin King goes undercover to expose the company that’s stolen his work—but after a sizzling encounter with his new boss, can he keep his eyes on the prize? My company’s software has been pirated by a tech start-up, but its owner, the beautiful Lola Jones, would never admit it. As a renowned Silicon Valley CEO, I couldn’t exactly walk into her office and accuse her—so when I saw a chance to go undercover as her new summer intern, I took it.

She might be an infuriating boss, but her power over me drives me wild with desire. When our sexual tension threatens to bubble over, we cross a line, and one night of exhilarating pleasure soon turns into several.

Download or read book Albion s Seed written by David Hackett Fischer and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 1991-03-14 with total page 981 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fascinating book is the first volume in a projected cultural history of the United States, from the earliest English settlements to our own time. It is a history of American folkways as they have changed through time, and it argues a thesis about the importance for the United States of having been British in its cultural origins. While most people in the United States today have no British ancestors, they have assimilated regional cultures which were created by British colonists, even while preserving ethnic identities at the same time. In this sense, nearly all Americans are "Albion's Seed," no matter what their ethnicity may be. The concluding section of this remarkable book explores the ways that regional cultures have continued to dominate national politics from 1789 to 1988, and still help to shape attitudes toward education, government, gender, and violence, on which differences between American regions are greater than between European nations.
