Book Description
Y’all would think with a name like Alex Fancy I’d be a butler or something, not the guy who’s soon gonna be the best damn bull rider in the world. Yeah, they say I have a bad attitude, and that I don’t deserve the shot, just because I like my women, beer, and fighting. I never much cared what they thought until the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen, a model named Emily, suggested we pretend to date. She said she needed my “edge” to help her get more clients, and I needed her innocent reputation to prove to people that I’m not some sort of asshole. Well, not a complete one, anyway. Six months dating a model seems like a nice deal, but one small hitch: she don’t want to have sex until she’s married, and she won’t let me sleep with any other women, even though we’re not really dating. This is gonna be a long six months.

The Virgin Vote
Author: Jon Grinspan
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469627353
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
There was a time when young people were the most passionate participants in American democracy. In the second half of the nineteenth century--as voter turnout reached unprecedented peaks--young people led the way, hollering, fighting, and flirting at massive midnight rallies. Parents trained their children to be "violent little partisans," while politicians lobbied twenty-one-year-olds for their "virgin votes"—the first ballot cast upon reaching adulthood. In schoolhouses, saloons, and squares, young men and women proved that democracy is social and politics is personal, earning their adulthood by participating in public life. Drawing on hundreds of diaries and letters of diverse young Americans--from barmaids to belles, sharecroppers to cowboys--this book explores how exuberant young people and scheming party bosses relied on each other from the 1840s to the turn of the twentieth century. It also explains why this era ended so dramatically and asks if aspects of that strange period might be useful today. In a vivid evocation of this formative but forgotten world, Jon Grinspan recalls a time when struggling young citizens found identity and maturity in democracy.

Book Description
She's the preacher's daughter and she's off limits. I'm an over-the-top, obsessed cowboy. I can lasso wild horses, loose cows and the orneriest of bulls... but I can't seem to catch the curvy Janie Bradshaw. She's too young and she's way too good for the likes of this ol' cowboy, but I can't stop thinking about her. She has more curves than some men would know what to do with. But not me. No, I dream of those curves... having my hands on them, my lips on them and holding onto them while I... Damn. I'm obsessed with her... but I shouldn't be. I thought we could try and be friends, but that made her think she could dance with another man. It's time to take matters into my own hands. I may not be worthy of the curvy, beautiful Janie, but I'll do whatever it takes to make her mine. If you love stories where the plus size woman gets the hot, possessive guy... if you love reading insta-love, age gap and alpha-takes-all small-town romance, then you'll love Carter and Janie's story. Whiskey Run is home to the sexiest and most possessive cowboys you'll ever find. They work hard and play even harder. They might be gruff and bossy, but all it will take is the right curvy woman to bring them to their knees. Welcome to Whiskey Run... where the cowboys know how to ride.

Book Description
Skylar Grey lost everything when her fiancé died. But her move back to her hometown, Billings, Montana is not the fresh start she seeks, as too many people know her tragic tale. But then she meets a bull riding cowboy who treats her like she's made of fire and everything changes. Cody Galen joined the American Extreme Bull Riders Tour to make money, not friends. He enjoys whiskey, winning, and women and he doesn’t care who he pisses off while he pursues the hell out of all three. He figures he only has a few years left before his body gives out and he might as well go down hard in a blaze of glory. He knows the pretty thing he meets his first night in Billings is no buckle bunny, but if she wants to play that role, who is he to argue? Neither one of them is looking for anything lasting. But there’s only one thing more dangerous than riding bulls—and that’s love. First Published as Cody

Cowboys and Indies
Author: Gareth Murphy
Publisher: Macmillan
ISBN: 1466841745
Category : Music
Languages : en
Pages : 399
Book Description
Cowboys and Indies is nothing less than the first definitive history of the recording industry on both sides of the Atlantic. From the invention of the earliest known sound-recording device in 1850s Paris to the CD crash and digital boom today, author and industry insider Gareth Murphy takes readers on an immensely entertaining and encyclopedic ride through the many cataclysmic musical, cultural, and technological changes that shaped a century and a half of the industry. This invaluable narrative focuses especially on the game changers---the label founders, talent scouts, and legendary A&R men. Murphy highlights: · Otto Heinemann's pioneer label Okeh, which spread blues and jazz "race" records across America · how one man, Henry Speir, discovered nearly all the Delta blues legends (Robert Johnson, Charlie Patton, Son House, Tommy Johnson) · Sam Phillips's seminal work with Chess and Sun Records · John Hammond's discoveries (Billie Holiday, Aretha Franklin, Bob Dylan, Leonard Cohen, Bruce Springsteen) · the behind-the-scenes players of the British Invasion · Clive Davis, Ahmet Ertegun, David Geffen, and the corporate music machine · the Machiavellian moves of punk impresario Malcolm McLaren (Sex Pistols) · Chris Blackwell's triumphs for Island Records (Bob Marley, U2) · Sylvia Robinson and Tom Silverman, the hip-hop explorers behind the Sugarhill Gang, Grandmaster Flash, and Afrika Bambaataa ...and much, much more. Murphy also offers a provocative look at the future through the ruminations of such vanguard figures as Martin Mills (4AD, XL Recordings, Matador, Rough Trade) and genre-busting producer Rick Rubin (Run-D.M.C., Red Hot Chili Peppers, Metallica, Johnny Cash). Drawing from memoirs, archives, and more than one hundred exclusive interviews with the legends of the record industry, including the founders and CEOs of Atlantic, Chrysalis, Virgin, A&M, Sub Pop, and Sire, this book reveals the secret history behind the hit-making craft. Remarkable in scope and impressive in depth, Cowboys and Indies chronicles the pioneers who set the stylus on the most important labels and musical discoveries in history.

Languages : en
Pages : 559
Book Description
COWBOYS AND INDIES is the story of the 'record men' - the mavericks and moguls who have shaped the music industry from the first sound machines of the 1850s through to today's digital streams. Men like John Hammond, who discovered Billie Holiday, Bob Dylan and Leonard Cohen; Sam Phillips and Berry Gordy, founders of the Sun and Motown labels; Chris Blackwell, who brought Bob Marley and reggae music into the mainstream; Geoff Travis who built Rough Trade and launched The Smiths; or genre-busting producer Rick Rubin, who recorded Run DMC, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Johnny Cash. Gareth Murphy has drawn on more than 100 interviews with music business legends, as well as extensive archive research, to bring us the behind-the-scenes stories of how music gets made and sold. He explains, too, how the industry undergoes regular seismic changes. We may think the digital revolution is a big deal, but in the 1920s the arrival of radio and the Wall Street Crash wiped out 95 per cent of record sales. But, as we all know, you can't stop the music ...
