7 Lucinda's Luck: Tales from Biders Clump: Book 7 by Danni Roan (Author) 4.6 out of 5 stars (92) Young and inexperienced in the ways of love, Lucinda Farrow finds her life turned upside down after the loss of her father. Destitute, she and her mother must make a new life for themselves and only the kindness of their beloved housekeeper seems to offer any hope as she whisks them into jobs at the small restaurant in the tiny town of Biders Clump. Struggling to find herself in a whole new world, Lucinda finds her life made more difficult by her mother’s inability to adjust to her new environment and accept her meager existence, as they depend on the kindness of others to make a living. After the loss of his sister, Willem Druthers has inherited a farm, a niece, and a nephew but little in his life has prepared him to deal with the after-effects of the children's grief. Desperately trying to eek a living from a farm that seems incapable of growing anything but onions, he longs for a better way to provide for his small family. His once-a-week excursion to the town eatery is the bright point in his life, doubly so when a pretty dark-eyed woman comes to work at the Grit Mill Restaurant. Will fate conspire to keep two dreamers apart, or will circumstances bring them together despite all odds?

Book Description
If you’re stressed and unhappy because of problems with a boss or colleague, you pay a price. Not only can your mental and physical health suffer, your nearest and dearest get sick of hearing about it. Going to bed angry and waking up only to dread a new workday is a terrible way to live. Remote work may have lessened the impact of annoying colleagues for a while, but they can still find ways to irritate. If you’re co-located, the “mute” and “stop video” buttons don’t exist to diminish your exasperation. Not all jerks are the same; the person you find to be a nightmare may be perfectly acceptable to others. And, astonishingly, someone else may even think you’re the jerk! Author Louise Carnachan has the credentials and experience to make her an expert in this area, but more importantly, she’s been in the trenches herself. With an emphasis on the positive actions you can take while being attentive to your specific situation, Work Jerks provides practical advice on how to deal with a variety of problematic coworkers—whether in-person or remotely—so work can stop being something you dread and start being something you enjoy.
