Princess Vallishia is a passionate young woman from the land of Landreann, and she will bow to no man. Siden, prince of Ravenside, has been embittered by war against the ruthless Tycorions in an effort to protect Landreann. Now, they must make an important decision: marry each other and possibly save both their lands or hold tight to their pride and refuse matrimony. They are both angry at the unexpected set-up. Vallishia wishes to focus on her beloved dragons and her blossoming magical abilitiestalents that could easily kill if she is not taught to keep them under control. Siden swore never to wed, but hes tired of war; a marriage might save his country from additional bloodshed. But time is running out. The Tycorions move ever closer to the peaceful lands Of Landreann. Both Vallishia and Siden have much to lose, including their lives. They must find a way to put aside foolish pride and marry for the good of their people. Combining the powers of their two Kingdoms will topple the assault of the Tycorions, and in peace, love may bloom between two prideful, young adversaries.

Social Groups in Action and Interaction
Author: Charles Stangor
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317387341
Category : Psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 458
Book Description
Social Groups in Action and Interaction reviews and analyzes the human group as it operates to create both social good and, potentially, social harm. It summarizes current knowledge and contemporary research, with real-world examples in succinct yet engaging chapters, to help students understand and predict group behavior. Unlike other texts, the book considers a wide range of topics—such as conformity, leadership, task performance, social identity, prejudice, and discrimination—from both an intragroup and an intergroup perspective. By looking at behavior both within and between groups, it bridges the gap between these interconnected approaches. The second edition is thoroughly updated to include new discussion of the biology and neuroscience of group formation, recent developments in social identity theory, and recent advances in the study of social networks. It also includes questions for review and discussion in the classroom. It provides the most comprehensive and essential resource for courses on group dynamics and behavior.

Anfractuous
Author: Tim e Holder

Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 399
Book Description
Tim lives life believing every experience is the next story. No matter how difficult, embarrassing, or exasperating, he takes a heart picture. “Okay, this will make a great story...someday!” Tim believes each moment is an assignment from God. A charge, a mission, to teach or learn, comfort, annoy, challenge, love, vex, and while wearing the mantle of verdant authenticity, loving others right where they are, courageously offering himself that same grace. But most importantly, Tim looks for the humor. He finds a great deal of human misery and embarrassment diffused by gut-wrenching, thundering, self-deprecating laughter. This compilation of 54 stories will bring tears. Some from laughter. Some from heart-tugs. Some from both. Give yourself permission to feel. With the autobiographical playfulness of a uniquely southern upbringing and self-deprecating humor, Tim carries you along on his journey of faith and relationship with Jesus. His life travels are anfractuous with one concrete, fundamental truth. Tim looks for a reason to laugh in any given situation. And he firmly believes that Jesus, his best Buddy, his Savior, says, “Lighten up people. Y’all gotta laugh more.” Enjoy the ride, the anfractuosity of the journey.
