Book excerpt: “Henry Smith’s father told him that if you build your house far enough away from Trouble, then Trouble will never find you.” But Trouble comes careening down the road one night in the form of a pickup truck that strikes Henry’s older brother, Franklin. In the truck is Chay Chouan, a young Cambodian from Franklin’s preparatory school, and the accident sparks racial tensions in the school—and in the well-established town where Henry’s family has lived for generations. Caught between anger and grief, Henry sets out to do the only thing he can think of: climb Mt. Katahdin, the highest mountain in Maine, which he and Franklin were going to climb together. Along with Black Dog, whom Henry has rescued from drowning, and a friend, Henry leaves without his parents’ knowledge. The journey, both exhilarating and dangerous, turns into an odyssey of discovery about himself, his older sister, Louisa, his ancestry, and why one can never escape from Trouble.

Download or read book The Trouble with the Congo written by Séverine Autesserre and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2010-06-14 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Trouble with the Congo suggests a new explanation for international peacebuilding failures in civil wars. Drawing from more than 330 interviews and a year and a half of field research, it develops a case study of the international intervention during the Democratic Republic of the Congo's unsuccessful transition from war to peace and democracy (2003–6). Grassroots rivalries over land, resources, and political power motivated widespread violence. However, a dominant peacebuilding culture shaped the intervention strategy in a way that precluded action on local conflicts, ultimately dooming the international efforts to end the deadliest conflict since World War II. Most international actors interpreted continued fighting as the consequence of national and regional tensions alone. UN staff and diplomats viewed intervention at the macro levels as their only legitimate responsibility. The dominant culture constructed local peacebuilding as such an unimportant, unfamiliar, and unmanageable task that neither shocking events nor resistance from select individuals could convince international actors to reevaluate their understanding of violence and intervention.

When Kelly moves from Wilmington, Delaware to Dallas, Texas, Evan regrets all the time they spent arguing and knows he made a mistake in letting her go. A wedding allows them the opportunity to reconnect and they spend a passionate night together. Yet when morning comes Kelly seems further away than ever. Kelly has her reasons for treating Evan the way she did, not to mention a secret or two she's never shared with anyone. If she hurt Evan, she's sorry but she had no other choice.

Book excerpt: Hudson McKay—almost reformed bad boy and reigning king of trouble. Forfeiting that tarnished crown? A daily struggle. Blame it on Stacia Colton and Cal Haverstock…two people he shouldn’t have effed up fantasies about. For starters, he’s Stacia’s boss. If that’s not complicated enough, his kid brother ditched her at the altar. It’d be a damn miracle if Stacia doesn’t believe all McKays are raging A-holes. Then there’s Cal. Hudson’s best friend and business partner. AKA: The offbeat Viking teddybear with a heart of gold who’s also responsible for turning Hudson’s life around when he hit rock bottom. In other words, if he gave in to his depraved urges where Cal and Stacia are concerned, it’d be disastrous. The worst decision of his life. And he’s made plenty of those to make him an expert. Including that racy video of him, ahem, indulging in some solo action. The same video he didn’t count on resurfacing, much less landing on Cal’s and Stacia’s radar. Now the two people he’s pledged not to touch are offering him the kind of trouble he can’t afford. Or resist…even if giving in could cost them everything.
