When college freshman Rowan Michaels meets gorgeous, up-and-coming rock star Adam Everest, she knows a player like him is the last thing she needs after her ex-boyfriend shattered her heart. But she can't stop thinking about the kiss they shared on his tour bus. On the first day of school, Rowan is stunned when Adam saunters into her French class. He's soon failing miserably, and, on a whim, she offers to tutor him. But Adam doesn't recognize her as a makeup-free, glasses-clad college student—a far cry from the beautiful, mysterious "Peach" he met at his concert. During a wild weekend on tour with the band, Rowan can't help falling for the sweet guy buried beneath Adam's rocker persona. Yet she knows she could never compete with the girls constantly throwing themselves at his feet. She'd just end up hurt … again. Peach is all Adam thinks about, though, and when Rowan realizes this, she has a decision to make: stay just friends to protect her fragile heart … or reveal the truth about the night they met and admit she's fallen completely, hopelessly in love with him.
Download or read book Mayhem written by Sigrid Rausing and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2017-09-05 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A searingly powerful memoir about the impact of addiction on a family. In the summer of 2012 a woman named Eva was found dead in the London townhouse she shared with her husband, Hans K. Rausing. The couple had struggled with drug addiction for years, often under the glare of tabloid headlines. Now, writing with singular clarity and restraint, Hans’ sister, the editor and publisher Sigrid Rausing, tries to make sense of what happened. In Mayhem, she asks the difficult questions those close to the world of addiction must face. “Who can help the addict, consumed by a shaming hunger, a need beyond control? There is no medicine: the drugs are the medicine. And who can help their families, so implicated in the self-destruction of the addict? Who can help when the very notion of ‘help’ becomes synonymous with an exercise of power; a familial police state; an end to freedom, in the addict’s mind?” An eloquent and timely attempt to understand the conundrum of addiction—and a memoir as devastating as it is riveting.

It's easy to feel invisible in such an impressive family, but Mimi's dream of proving she's not the least-talented member of her family seems possible when she discovers a baking contest at the new bakery in town. Plus, it'll start her on the path to becoming a celebrity chef like her culinary idol, Puffy Fay.

Without his help, Mimi will never be able to bake something impressive enough to propel her to gastronomic fame.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memoir, bilingual edition. Renowned Chicano author Sabine Ulibarri, born in New Mexico in 1919, presents in his "veteran's memoir" of World War II the story of his experiences as a ball-turret gunner. Initially resistant to enlisting and determined to sit out the war while obtaining a law degree, Ulibarri's growing sense of duty compelled him to join the US Army Air Force. "What we were ready to fight for, suffer for, die for, was our Hispanic way of life". As a combat flier he was one of the elite, but a grueling tour of duty brought him face to face with hysteria, fear, and the seductive power of violence and destruction. Reentering civilian life he rose to prominence as a university professor, civic leader, fiction writer and critic, while continuing to suffer the stress-related effects of combat fatigue throughout his life.
Download or read book Merchants of Mayhem written by Claire Atkin and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2024-08-20 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A unique playbook for fighting the flood of disinformation--not by correcting lies but by targeting the businesses that fund them. Disinformation is a powerful weapon. Its goals are to divide and demoralize us -- and to make a mountain of money. Politicians and media personalities use it to amass power through lies and distractions. Well-intentioned watchdogs and independent media try to fight these tactics by correcting falsehoods and exposing the truth--but they're not winning. Nandini Jammi and Claire Atkin have a better plan of attack: follow the money. In 2016, Jammi began looking into the advertising revenue that powered Breitbart news, the hostile disinformation site that helped propel Donald Trump to the presidency. She found that major companies like Uber and BMW were unwittingly advertising on the site, and through public pressure, she got those companies to withdraw their ads, causing Breitbart's revenue to drop 90% and weakening its influence. In the years since, she has partnered with Atkin to found Check My Ads, an organization that exposes funding for dangerous disinformation, fake outrage campaigns, and other political scams. Together, they have become five-star generals in the information war. In Mayhem Merchants, Jammi and Atkin expose the truth about how disinformation really works. It takes more than clever tactics to manipulate voters and consumers--you also need resources. And many supposedly apolitical companies are spending and making money in this trade, sometimes without even knowing about it. Disinformation is a big and dangerous business, a looming threat to democracy. By showing how it works, they can teach us all how to stop it.

Book excerpt: Many searched for evidence of voter fraud in 2020, only a few were unbiased professionals . . . and only one has written a book about his experience. If you value the integrity of our elections—or want a behind-the-scenes look at an attempt at overturning one—Disproven by Ken Block takes you out of the voting booth and into the chaos that was the attempt to challenge the results of the 2020 U.S. presidential election. In November 2020, data specialist Ken Block received a phone call from the Trump Campaign. They wanted to hire him to find evidence of election fraud. What followed were late night and early morning requests to assess fraud claims at a blistering pace and ultimately find definitive evidence about the role voter fraud played in the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. Multiple subpoenas later, Block reveals the truth about being one of the few professionals hired to prove the Trump Campaign’s allegation that voter fraud cost Donald Trump the 2020 presidential election. He explains what the voter data tells us and exposes the sobering truth that our federal elections are operating on hundreds, if not thousands, of disparate voting systems prone to error—a threat to national election integrity. Disproven is an insider’s look at the results of an inflammatory claim, a flawed system, and the changes drastically needed before the results of another election are threatened or contested.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The elites in government have gone too far. They taxed, spent, regulated, and redistributed until the once great American economy started to implode. They vilified businesses and business owners in an effort to shift blame for the damage their policies had done. A group of freedom loving entrepreneurs refuse to live in the wreckage of the economy, or under the thumb of the political elite, so they conspire to defy the government. Sean Murphy suddenly finds himself in the middle of the conspiracy, and at odds with a thug from the newly created Office of Economic Realignment, when he discovers that his philosophically inclined father is not only a part of the conspiracy, he's the leader. While working to protect his father and keep the plan from being discovered, Sean tries to figure out what went wrong with the elites' plans when they had all seemed so good to so many people in the beginning. How did all of their wonderful plans result in a crashing economy and bureaucratic thugs dominating people's lives? He is also fascinated to learn about the philosophy that is driving his father and his fellow conspirators to defy the government when many people in their position are willing to sell-out and many others are simply in despair. The Tamarack Conspiracyhonors entrepreneurs and working people. It holds freedom sacred and explores the philosophical and spiritual value of America to the world. Written in the spirit of Atlas Shrugged, but with more of a sense of humor (and a more accessible length), The Tamarack Conspiracy will resonate with those who understand that free people, working creatively, will generate far more progress and better solutions to problems than government elites can possibly provide.
