Download or read book Kiss A Ginger Day written by Elizabeth SaFleur and published by Elizabeth SaFleur LLC. This book was released on 2024-05-21 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From award-winning Elizabeth SaFleur, this steamy workplace romcom is a standalone and perfect for readers who love opposites attract, instalove and witty banter. Alice and karma are no longer on speaking terms. Running into her hot, almost-one-night-stand was not how Alice planned to start her workday. And she plans everything. Except for sudden snowstorms. And her car getting stuck. And running into a British hottie who carries her home to save her high heels. But just her luck, the next day, he turns out to be the new management consultant brought in to “cut staff redundancies.” Well, he may be charming and gorgeous in his finely cut suit, but he would NOT stop her rise to CFO, a position she’d been working toward for years. Theodore’s job at Alice’s company is simple: find the real reason it’s on the verge of bankruptcy, and tell no one about his super-secret investigation—especially Alice, a potential suspect. Easy. If he can tamp down the urge to kiss her—again. Their sexy banter soon builds an inconvenient heat between them, and they have one tiny slip-up in the supply closet. Okay, more than one. However, he has no intention of getting romantically involved with a colleague, which is forbidden by the company owners. Too bad they can seem to stop themselves. Fall into this insta-lust workplace romcom where thank goodness the supply closet door has a lock.

Book excerpt: Red is a brilliantly told, captivating history of red hair throughout the ages. A book that breaks new ground, dispels myths, and reinforces the special nature of being a redhead, with a look at multiple disciplines, including science, religion, politics, feminism and sexuality, literature, and art. With an obsessive fascination that is as contagious as it is compelling, author Jacky Colliss Harvey (herself a redhead) begins her exploration of red hair in prehistory and traces the redhead gene as it made its way out of Africa with the early human diaspora to its emergence under Northern skies. She goes on to explore red hair in the ancient world; the prejudice manifested against red hair across medieval Europe; red hair during the Renaissance as both an indicator of Jewishness during the Inquisition and the height of fashion in Protestant England, under the reign of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I; the modern age of art and literature, and the first positive symbols of red hair in children's characters; modern medicine and science and the genetic and chemical decoding of red hair; and finally, red hair in contemporary culture, from advertising and exploitation to "gingerism" and the new movement against bullying.

Starting from prenatal development up to early adulthood, its chapters underpin research through exploration of other theories such as attachment theory, cognitive development theory, social learning theory, and emotional schema to highlight the importance of recognizing the negative consequences of emotional neglect, and encourage the of development of interventions that support healthy emotional development in children. This book will appeal to scholars, researchers, and postgraduate students working in child and family social work, child abuse and neglect research, as well as child and adolescent psychiatry and clinical psychology.

But it’s been six months since his mother passed away, and someone has to clear out the house. Caspian Cook is out on a walk with his three dogs when he sees Flynn Thomas, at least he thinks it’s Flynn Thomas.

Flynn mistakes Caspian for his childhood tormenter and flees. Caspian can guess why he’s in such a hurry to get away, but he hasn’t seen Flynn in twenty years, and if he allows him to run off, he fears he’ll never see him again. Will spending time with Flynn be enough for him to forget who Caspian’s brother is? Flynn needs help. He underestimated how much work it would be to move his mother’s things. Caspian offers to give him a hand, but can he trust someone who looks like his worst nightmare?
