Book Description
Is their happily ever after nothing but a convenient fantasy? Everyone knows that Gracie’s fiancé died shortly before their wedding. What no one realizes is just how much better her life is without him—and the guilt she feels over that fact. Now she’s free to do whatever she wants--without having to accommodate his every need. She’s free. Too bad she’s also painfully lonely. Maybe that marriage of convenience her parents are so in favor of isn’t such a bad idea after all… Carson hasn’t been lucky where romance is concerned, either. But he needs to prove to his father that he’s ready to settle down if he plans to inherit the family business in the future. Marrying Gracie makes total sense—if she will just agree. The instant and irresistible pull of attraction he feels to her, however, is an entirely different story. With his track record, trusting his judgement—and his heart—would surely be a huge mistake…right? Can Gracie and Carson overcome the past hurts and trust issues that stand between them?

Pages : 173
Book Description
Convenience is King When you make it easier for customers to do business with you, they will reward you with their money, their loyalty, and their referrals. There’s a reason they call it a convenience store – because it’s convenient! When you have to pick up a gallon of milk, would you rather stop by a large supermarket or a 7-Eleven? Customers who shop at convenience stores know the selection is smaller and the prices are often higher...yet they still come in droves because of the ease of purchase. What about the minibar in your hotel room? That’s convenient too...but the convenience comes at a cost. Did you ever stop to think that the same $5.00 can of Coca-Cola in the hotel’s mini-fridge can be bought down the hall from the vending machine for just $1.25? Yet even with that can of Coke being four times more expensive, hotels are restocking minibars every day. Customers will pay for convenience. And they’ll choose to do more business over time with the people and companies that make their lives more convenient! Whether you’re trying to out-service a competitor or disrupt an entire industry, creating less friction and being more convenient for your customers should be your strategy. When you raise the convenience bar, you create the next level of amazing customer experience. This book shows you how to leverage convenience as a powerful way to differentiate yourself from your competition. You’ll learn six compelling strategies, supported by numerous examples and case studies that will fuel your plan to create a focus on convenience for your customers. The value proposition is both simple and profound: when you reduce friction and make it easier for customers to do business with you, they’ll reward you with their money, their loyalty, and their referrals. That’s the advantage of being a part of The Convenience Revolution.

And when Jonathon's granddad realizes his grandson's marrying a woman of color on an average salary, how will he react? Find out in this touching romance story by best selling romance author Cher Etan. Suitable for over 18s only due to sexual scenes so hot you'll need an ice shower.
