Book Description
From USA Today bestselling author Amanda Siegrist comes a series full of humor, angst, a sassy heroine, and a sexy, sinful hero that will sweep you off your feet. The Agreement: Pretend to be her fake fiancé to placate her overbearing, selfish mother. Timeframe: Five days. Brick likes things carefree and simple, especially after the falling out with his brother. The moment Jezebelle walks into his bar looking sad and troubled, he’s determined to do anything to turn her frown upside down. Even if that requires posing as her fake fiancé to get her bossy mother off her back. Pretending to love her will be the easy part—because he does. Walking away will be futile. But he doesn’t see a way he can keep Jezebelle for real, not when her mother’s diabolical ways prove she can make his life more than just complicated, but downright impossible. Jezebelle can’t believe her luck when Brick hatches this crazy plan. One, because she’s always had a secret crush on him, and any reason to get closer to him makes her heart stutter with anticipation. Two, because it might actually work to keep her mother at bay. Of course, her mother isn’t a woman who takes no for an answer. She’ll do everything in her power to get her way. The last thing she wants is for Brick to get hurt. The best thing she can do is walk away and forget he ever held her heart. If only it were that easy. Warning: This is not a full romcom. While it has moments of humor, it also has a twist of angst. Okay, now you can dive in, you’re prepared! The entire Perfect For You series: (Each book can be read as a standalone.) The Wrong Brother (Book 1): Dane & Gabriella The Right Time (Book 2): Jaxson & Mia The Easy Part (Book 3): Brick & Jezebelle The Hard Choice (Book 4): Corey & Genevieve

The Easy Part of Impossible
Author: Sarah Tomp
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062898302
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 305
Book Description
After an injury forces Ria off the diving team, an unexpected friendship with Cotton, a guy on the autism spectrum, helps her come to terms with the abusive relationship she’s been in with her former coach. Ria Williams was an elite diver on track for the Olympics. As someone who struggled in school, largely due to her ADHD, diving was the one place Ria could shine. But while her parents were focused on the trophies, no one noticed how Coach Benny’s strict rules and punishments controlled every aspect of Ria’s life. The harder he was on her, the sharper her focus. The bigger the bruise, the better the dive. Until a freak accident at a meet changes everything. Just like that, Ria is handed back her life, free of Benny. To fill her now empty and aimless days, Ria rekindles a friendship with Cotton, a guy she used to know back in elementary school. With Cotton, she’s able to open up about what Benny would do to her, and through Cotton’s eyes, Ria is able to see it for what it was: abuse. Then Benny returns, offering Ria a second chance with a life-changing diving opportunity. But it’s not hers alone—Benny’s coaching comes with it. The thought of being back under his control seems impossible to bear, but so does walking away. How do you separate the impossible from possible when the one thing you love is so tangled up in the thing you fear most?

This book is a kind of coaching manual on how to love a woman for life.

The Idea Is the Easy Part
Author: Brian Dovey
Publisher: BenBella Books
ISBN: 1637744056
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 163
Book Description
Lifelong entrepreneur Brian Dovey offers readers a personal, humorous, story-driven compendium of practical advice for navigating the risky entrepreneurial journey. The Idea Is the Easy Part counters widespread myths of failure and success with lessons learned from Dovey’s decades of hands-on experience. Today’s entrepreneurs can earn celebrity and billionaire status. Our books, movies, and TV shows seem to say that with a big idea and a jazzy elevator pitch, anyone can quickly earn funding for their own startups and achieve massive financial success. In these stories, a brilliant initial idea—and the funding you’ll easily acquire—are all you need. The reality, however, is vastly different. Getting funding is incredibly hard, and success depends on many factors, strategies, and decisions. The idea, as it turns out, is the easy part. Between serving as the president of the company that developed the groundbreaking EpiPen, bringing entrepreneurship to a Fortune 500 company as president, working in venture capitalism for several decades, and being involved in the development of nearly 300 startups, Brian Dovey was well acquainted with entrepreneurship—its reality as well as its mythology. In The Idea Is the Easy Part, Dovey busts common myths about entrepreneurship and lays out an enthusiastic but realistic guidebook for aspiring entrepreneurs to make better decisions at every stage of the entrepreneurial process. For those seduced by the myths of fame and fortune, as well as for those who don’t realize what they’re missing out on, The Idea Is the Easy Part is a reliable guide to navigating the entrepreneurial waters, replacing today’s misleading notions with objective and actionable advice.

Learning to Walk Again Was the 'Easy' Part
Author: Sherri Debbrecht
Publisher: Xulon Press
ISBN: 160266014X
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
Sherri, a popular high school sophomore and newly selected member of her prestigious high school drill team, loses everything in an instant of careless teenage driving. She is left in a coma with little hope of ever walking again. God's Miracles Within these pages Sherri describes her recovery and the miracle of growing up a second time. For Sherri, LEARNING TO WALK AGAIN WAS THE "EASY" PART. Learning to eat, to talk, to think, to make decisions and friends again were battles she faced every day during her recovery. Sherri's journey towards acceptance of her changed self was much more difficult-slow, frustrating, and painful-than her physical recovery. Her loving family, a dedicated psychologist friend, and talented medical and rehabilitative staffs, supported Sherri as she grew up a second time. At the heart of Sherri's healing was her deepening faith and trust in God. This is the story of her transformation from feeling anger at Him for letting the accident happen to her recognition of God's presence in her life and His unconditional love for her. It is this faith that allows Sherri to bury the "old Sherri" and begin a new chapter in her life. This autobiography, written by Sherri from her mother's diary and interviews with those who helped her grow up a second time, is a testimony to the ability of the human spirit to survive and overcome severe physical and mental disability. Individuals, families, and book clubs who read this story will be inspired by Sherri's courage, the commitment of her family, friends and medical providers to her recovery; her rediscovery of God; and her ultimate acceptance of herself.
