What would happen once Veronica discovered that everything about him was a lie…everything except his passion for her?

Download or read book California State Park Rangers written by Michael G. Lynch and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009-02-23 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first park ranger in the world was appointed in California in 1866. Galen Clark was chosen as Guardian of Yosemite, at what was then Yosemite State Park, and the concept of rangers to protect and administer Americas great nature parks was born. The tradition continued in 1872 with the establishment of the first national park at Yellowstone.

The park ranger has become an American icon, whose revered image has maintained itself to this very day.

Download or read book I Was Told There d Be Cake written by Sloane Crosley and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2008-04-01 with total page 214 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hailed by David Sedaris as "perfectly, relentlessly funny" and by Colson Whitehead as "sardonic without being cruel, tender without being sentimental," from the author of the new collection Look Alive Out There. Wry, hilarious, and profoundly genuine, this debut collection of literary essays is a celebration of fallibility and haplessness in all their glory. From despoiling an exhibit at the Natural History Museum to provoking the ire of her first boss to siccing the cops on her mysterious neighbor, Crosley can do no right despite the best of intentions -- or perhaps because of them. Together, these essays create a startlingly funny and revealing portrait of a complex and utterly recognizable character who aims for the stars but hits the ceiling, and the inimitable city that has helped shape who she is. I Was Told There'd Be Cake introduces a strikingly original voice, chronicling the struggles and unexpected beauty of modern urban life.

Burning with humiliation, she accepts a lesser assignment to the Isle of Ice, serving as bodyguard to human riever, Daq Aryk. Verdeen’s never paid much attention to men, so focused was she on her training. But she quickly realizes hieing off into a distant wilderness with Aryk is a bad idea.

Cianan ta Daneal's mission to the fractured land of Shamar is twofold: to overthrow a despotic queen, and to save a life.

He never expected to lay eyes on that woman and recognize her as his Lifemate-or that she'd turn and run like hell.

But when the cold blade of fate strikes true, can she trust his love is strong enough to pull her back from the Abyss?
