Book Description
Everyone has secrets. Although, I was a master at concealing mine. But part of hiding was deception, and I'd become a veritable Pinocchio. He was like two different people-Eli and Dr. Paxton. While I knew the latter would turn out to be an incredible teacher, the idea of Eli being more threw me for a loop. I couldn't separate the two, and it seemed vastly inappropriate and strangely alluring. The practical side of me needed to win the war inside my mind. I had to please the teacher, not the man. But once I'd cross that line, there was no turning back.For either of us.

Book Description
I hate his guts and now we're engaged! How did this happen? Christina... "Okay, yeah... I know revenge isn't right but come on, it's the dirty rat from high school and he doesn't even recognize me! I don't care if he's billionaire rich or that he's even so super sexy. He's going down because I've got the perfect plan to get even. What can go wrong?" Bill... "Man, she's smoking hot and so adorable! There's just something about her that attracts me like gravity. Okay, yeah... maybe I shouldn't be blackmailing her into pretending to be my fiancee to fool my stubborn, moneybags father but she's perfect! And my plan is perfect too! What can go wrong?" William... "You give your children everything and what do you get in return? Disappointment & heartburn! If my dirty, rotten son and the girl think they can fool me with their phony scam, they've got another thing coming. I'm going to turn the tables on them and pressure the scheming duo to marry for real! That'll teach them! My plan is perfect. What can go wrong?" So... who will win? And how disastrously can 'revenge go wrong' for everybody? Here's what some previous readers had to say about Her Perfect Revenge: "Loved this book!... This book was well written. I loved how the nerdy girl in High School grew into a beautiful woman and was a bit of a spit-fire to boot. Just what the billionaire's son needed to rock his world." "LOVED IT!!!... "The story was great. Girl gets hurt in high school and years later plans her revenge, what can go wrong? Ohh my, so much! It was funny and sweet all at the same time. If someone asked me for a good vacation book, this would be on the top of my list." "Loved, loved, loved Her Perfect Revenge... Absolutely loved this book! The plot has more twists and turns than a mountain highway." "A true page turner... I read a lot of romance books. I started reading romance books in 7th grade . This one will be one of my favorites." "Could Not Stop Laughing; A Must Read... On a scale from 1 to 5, this book was a 10. This book is filled with scams that will have you laughing and shaking your head." "Perfect revenge... I absolutely loved this book! im usually into "vampire" books but i decided to try something different for a change and so i picked this book and i couldnt put it down!" "Bad Boyz, Bad Boyz..whatcha gonna do?... This book was great read. I actually stayed up until 3am this morning reading the book (resulting in lack of sleep last night and lack of focus today at work). However it was well worth it." "I loved this angsty read!... I read Her Perfect Revenge in one day, I couldn't put it down. Holy Mackerel was this an emotional ride!"

Book Description
The girl’s body is curled up like a shell and almost completely buried in sand. Only her fingertips can be seen, reaching helplessly up towards an escape she will never find… Seventeen-year-old Shelby Mayfield sits alone on a bus to Fog Harbor, California. Aside from a few items of clothing, all she has with her is twenty-two dollars, the ragdoll she’s kept since kindergarten, and the devastating secret she’s been hiding. How long will it be before her family realizes she’s gone? Can anyone see the fresh bruise on her cheek beneath the makeup? Perhaps she was a fool to believe the person she is meeting in this remote little town could help her… When a girl’s body is found hidden in a barrel in a woodland cabin, the local police are at a loss. The film from an old camera found looped around her neck is their only lead, but Criminal Psychologist Olivia Rockwell’s blood turns to ice when she recognizes the ragdoll in one of the girl’s last photographs. She used to own one just like it, and it can only mean one thing: if she doesn’t dig deep into the mind of a deadly killer from her past—her own father—more innocent lives will be in danger… A totally gripping and utterly addictive crime thriller for readers who love Lisa Regan, Kendra Elliot and Melinda Leigh. But be warned: you’ll be sleeping with the lights on after you’ve raced through the pages in one sitting! Everyone is talking about Her Perfect Bones: ‘Omg… Wow, just wow, I loved this… addictive… gripping… fast-paced, packed full of twists and turns, kept me guessing and had me captivated and glued to my kindle… gave me a very bad case of just-one-more-chapter syndrome… I would give it more than five stars if I could…Very very highly recommended.’ Nicki’s Life of Crime, 5 stars ‘Perfect… heart-stopping… glued to this book!...

The Perfect $100,000 House
Author: Karrie Jacobs
Publisher: Penguin
ISBN: 1440684529
Category : Architecture
Languages : en
Pages : 277
Book Description
A home of one’s own has always been a cornerstone of the American dream, fulfilling like nothing else the desire for comfort, financial security, independence, and with a little luck, even a touch of distinctive character, or even beauty. But what we have come to regard as almost a national birthright has recently begun to elude more and more prospective homebuyers. Where housing is concerned, affordable and well-crafted rarely exist together. Or do they? For years, founding editor-in-chief of Dwell magazine and noted architecture and design critic Karrie Jacobs had been confronting this question both professionally and personally. Finally, she decided to see for herself whether it was possible to build the home of her own dreams for a reasonable sum. The Perfect $100,000 House is the story of that quest, a search that takes her from a two-week crash course in housebuilding in Vermont to a road trip of some 14,000 miles. In the course of her journey Jacobs encounters a group of intrepid and visionary architects and builders working to revolutionize the way Americans thinks about homes, about construction techniques, and about the very idea of community.

Book Description
A home of one’s own has always been a cornerstone of the American dream, fulfilling like nothing else the desire for comfort, financial security, independence, and with a little luck, even a touch of distinctive character, or even beauty. But what we have come to regard as almost a national birthright has recently begun to elude more and more prospective homebuyers. Where housing is concerned, affordable and well-crafted rarely exist together. Or do they? For years, founding editor-in-chief of Dwell magazine and noted architecture and design critic Karrie Jacobs had been confronting this question both professionally and personally. Finally, she decided to see for herself whether it was possible to build the home of her own dreams for a reasonable sum. The Perfect $100,000 House is the story of that quest, a search that takes her from a two-week crash course in housebuilding in Vermont to a road trip of some 14,000 miles. In the course of her journey Jacobs encounters a group of intrepid and visionary architects and builders working to revolutionize the way Americans thinks about homes, about construction techniques, and about the very idea of community. By her trip’s end Jacobs, has not only had a practical and sobering education in the economics, aesthetics, and politics of homebuilding, but has been spurred to challenge her own deeply held beliefs about what constitutes an ideal home. The Perfect $100,000 House is a compelling and inspiring demonstration that we can live in homes that are sensible, modest, and beautiful.
