Olivia
Author: Jasper Trey
Publisher: Jennifer Base
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Beautiful and brilliant businesswoman Olivia had been widowed a year earlier - and ever since, she’s thrown herself into mending everybody’s broken heart except her own. However, on a lonely, sun-drenched vacation to Tahiti, that changes. After delivering a cold beer to a handsome stranger, Olivia finds herself confronted not just by feelings she’d thought had died along with her husband; but also the overwhelming temptation to act on them. For wealthy, aristocratic Dante, love had similarly been the last thing he’d been looking for at this remote resort - at least until the tanned beauty in the red bikini had showed up to offer him a beer. Olivia is bold, blatant, and a world away from the fawning women he’d grown so tired of as a prince of Madiera. The chemistry between them is undeniable. But Olivia and Dante come from two very different worlds - her from small-town Oklahoma, and Dante from a glittering European kingdom. They’ll have just a week together before duty and destiny separate them once again. Having gone through so much already, are either willing to gamble on something that might never be? Then again - can either of them walk away from what might be their only chance of happiness? Olivia: A Summer of Second Chances is the first installment of the Harris Legacy series - richly emotional, beautifully written, and true-to-life tales of love triumphant despite overwhelming odds.

Hard Work Is Not Enough
Author: Katrinell M. Davis
Publisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469630494
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 197
Book Description
The Great Recession punished American workers, leaving many underemployed or trapped in jobs that did not provide the income or opportunities they needed. Moreover, the gap between the wealthy and the poor had widened in past decades as mobility remained stubbornly unchanged. Against this deepening economic divide, a dominant cultural narrative took root: immobility, especially for the working class, is driven by shifts in demand for labor. In this context, and with right-to-work policies proliferating nationwide, workers are encouraged to avoid government dependency by arming themselves with education and training. Drawing on archival material and interviews with African American women transit workers in the San Francisco Bay Area, Katrinell Davis grapples with our understanding of mobility as it intersects with race and gender in the postindustrial and post–civil rights United States. Considering the consequences of declining working conditions within the public transit workplace of Alameda County, Davis illustrates how worker experience--on and off the job--has been undermined by workplace norms and administrative practices designed to address flagging worker commitment and morale. Providing a comprehensive account of how political, social, and economic factors work together to shape the culture of opportunity in a postindustrial workplace, she shows how government manpower policies, administrative policies, and drastic shifts in unionization have influenced the prospects of low-skilled workers.
