Book Description
Years ago I lost ‘the man I loved because I was a fool.’ Except he showed up when I was lost in Mardi Gras again. He was now rich, powerful and clearly never ever going to notice me . I’d rejected him before. Even if his nearness still sends a thrill through me. I should move on from wishing, but then he kissed me. I wasn’t worth him. I took a few minutes of happiness, but I knew we’d never last But it turns out I’m running out of reasons to reject him. ♥ I need him. ✓He’s going to want more than I can offer. He’s a trillionaire and I’m lost little rich girl. ★Yet his kisses make me wish I had more stamina to be with him forever. What happens when the party ends? I can’t think beyond the parade. I never expected a second chance at love, except, you’d never have expected what happened because I absolutely hadn’t.

Common Mistakes Made by Esl Learners Using Arabic as Reference Language
Author: Dr. M. Solainman Ali
Publisher: Author House
ISBN: 1481704591
Category : Foreign Language Study
Languages : en
Pages : 327
Book Description
Purpose and Scope: This text has been produced to alert learners of English using Arabic as L1 to the most typical problem areas that tend to hinder their progress as they endeavor to overcome native language interference in the process of growing into the target language. The functions of capitalization and syntax have received special emphasis. The analytical perspective takes precedence over its pedagogical counterpart. Learner Focus: The primary readership is expected to grow beyond Arabic speakers per se and is most likely to include learners using Farsi, Urdu, or Turkish as L1. In addition, even a broad spectrum of learners using reference languages with various different alphabets (e.g. Bengali, Hangul, Hebrew, Hindi, Japanese, Mandarin) will find the text useful to a considerable extent. Appendices: The exercises included in the three appendices are ambitiously written and intended to reveal to the learner the formidable amount of lexical material that will have to be internalized on the road to solid proficiency. ESL instructors teaching Arabic speakers are aware of the difficult and time-consuming effort involved in the acquisition of vocabulary.

Deadly Mistakes
Author: The Cox Brothers
Publisher: AuthorHouse
ISBN: 1452000409
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
When it comes to humor, Americans are said to hold nothing sacred. Deadly Mistakes: Real Obituaries Gone Amusingly Wrong is an example of that sentiment. Given our near obsession with fame and celebrity, it should come as no surprise that "ordinary people" would go to extraordinary lengths to be considered noteworthy. Deadly Mistakes provides the evidence in the obituaries of the "unfamous." Average folks are remembered by family and friends in send-offs that unintentionally go off the rails in amusing and bizarre ways. What's to be said of someone whose family wants him to be remembered for inventing an electric pickle...that stinks? Of someone who, "not wanting to give up his love of uniforms, became a campus police officer?" Or of someone who achieved the mysterious title of "Puissant Sovereign of the Red Cross of Constantine"? Plenty. All this and more is included in Deadly Mistakes: Real Obituaries Gone Amusingly Wrong. These obituaries have not been edited (except for length and to remove last names). They stand on their own as commentary on the human need to find meaning in it all... somehow, some way. Deadly Mistakes should remind readers of one thing: it's best to go out laughing. Just ask the guy whose memorial service was held at Hammerhead's Bar, just east of The Strip, in Vegas.
