Book Description
Can a charming saloon keeper convince a ruined barmaid he’s a sure bet? True love is worth more than gold in this delightful followup to The Prospector’s Only Prospect. Scandal has taught aspiring school teacher Temperance Goodrich to never trust a man. Stranded in lawless Denver City, she’ll do anything to earn enough to return home before winter–even work as a saloon girl. But entertaining rough men who are starved for female company isn’t easy, and time is running out. When Owen Stames finally finds a claim that pays, he’s determined to prove the naysayers wrong and open his own saloon before the gold runs out. Too bad the sole vacant building is a former funeral parlor, and the only available employee is the prickly city girl who’s been fired from every bar in town. Temperance is wary of Owen, especially when the accommodation he offers is a bed they must share. But when a brazen robbery nearly costs them everything, they realize they only have one shot at love… so they’d better take it.

He was found by EMS and the law. He was taken to an emergency room. Later the government took him from the hospital. Later he was updated, trained, and made a government agent who goes through deadly missions. His job caused him a problem of his own. He missed his past loves and life. He worried about his future.

Gambling with the Myth of the American Dream
Author: Aaron M. Duncan
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1317512472
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 191
Book Description
This book explores the rise and increased acceptance of gambling in America, particularly the growth of the game of poker, as a means for examining changes to the American Dream and the risk society. Poker both critiques and reinterprets the myth of the American Dream, putting greater emphasis on the importance of luck and risk management while deemphasizing the importance of honesty and hard work. Duncan discusses the history of gambling in America, changes to the rhetoric surrounding gambling, the depiction of poker in the Wild West as portrayed in film, its recent rise in popularity on television, its current place in post-modern America on the internet, and future implications.
