Pages : 3035
Book Description
Can’t get enough of sexy cowboys? Check out these ten tales of bold, funny, take-charge couples who team up to wrangle a love as big as the Texas sky! The Texas Takedown: Berry Challoner’s going undercover as a secretary to solve her brother’s murder. Surely accountant Tyler Reid, his best friend, can help her follow the money to the killer. But when she’s targeted next, can meek Tyler save the girl who’s captured his heart? What a Texas Girl Wants: The last thing Jackson Taylor wants is a down-to-earth girl like Kathleen Witte, so why did he wake up on a Mexican beach with a ring on his finger? Once they’re back in Texas, this all-business marriage might turn into an all-consuming love. Delicious Deception: Artist Emily Kate Boudreaux runs a restaurant on a Texas bayou because it’s what her family expects. Then sexy chef Connor Rikeland walks into her life and turns her business—and her bed—into one hot adventure. But Connor isn’t who he seems to be, and Emily Kate questions what’s real, what’s a lie, and what’s worth risking her heart over. Sweet Texas Fire: When Gage Cooper’s business nemesis, environmental analyst Charlotte Wilkinson, inherits oil-rich family property, he’ll do anything to reverse this fortune, including eloping to Vegas. But surprising chemistry blossoms and Gage must choose between the land he’s always coveted or a future with Charlotte. A Love Beyond: Convinced her sister’s abusive marriage led to her suicide, A.J. Owens travels to her brother-in-law’s Texas ranch to unearth his secrets. Chance Landin, his head of security, knows there’s something fishy about this gorgeous blonde. Can love triumph over revenge? The Election Connection: War widow Lily Ashton’s heart is closed to love, so she’s the perfect choice to play fiancée to help secure a re-election for her pal, Texas congressman Ford Richardson. Soon, their not-quite engagement starts to feel much more real than either is ready to admit. In the Shadow of Pride: When Lexie Trevena’s matchmaking friends accidentally place her smack in the path of a terrorist in Austin who intends to use her as his pawn, the only person who can help her is Special Agent-in-Charge Luke “Mac” McNeil—the man she holds responsible for her husband’s death. One Last Letter: Jesse Greenwood can only admit his true feelings for heartbreaker Evelyn Lancaster via unsigned letters left on her porch…until another man comes forward to lay claim. Will one final note give them the courage to say yes to love again on the wild Texas plains? Relentless: Battling his partner, his attraction to cowgirl Cody, and the demons of his past, Dallas detective Remy LeBeau must risk it all to catch a serial killer. But it could cost him everything—including Cody’s life. Broken Wings, Soaring Hearts: Hailey Holman is set on keeping her dad’s dream of reopening their small-town Texas base station alive. Jack Stinson wants to escape the pressures of his own family’s airplane manufacturing business. Only with each other’s help, can these two focused pilots have enough faith to soar together.

Tempting Fate
Author: Paul C. Avey
Publisher: Cornell University Press
ISBN: 1501740393
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 253
Book Description
Unpacking of the dynamics of conflict under conditions of nuclear monopoly, Paul C. Avey argues in Tempting Fate that the costs and benefits of using nuclear weapons create openings that weak nonnuclear actors can exploit. Avey uses four case studies to show the key strategies available to nonnuclear states: Iraqi decision-making under Saddam Hussein in confrontations with the United States; Egyptian leaders' thinking about the Israeli nuclear arsenal during wars in 1969–70 and 1973; Chinese confrontations with the United States in 1950, 1954, and 1958; and a dispute that never escalated to war, the Soviet-United States tensions between 1946 and 1948 that culminated in the Berlin Blockade. Strategies employed include limiting the scope of the conflict, holding chemical and biological weapons in reserve, seeking outside support, and leveraging international non-use norms. Avey demonstrates clearly that nuclear weapons cast a definite but limited shadow, and while the world continues to face various nuclear challenges, understanding conflict in nuclear monopoly will remain a pressing concern for analysts and policymakers. Thanks to generous funding from Virginia Tech and its participation in TOME, the ebook editions of this book are available as Open Access volumes, available from Cornell Open (cornellpress.cornell.edu/cornell-open) and other repositories.
