When a family of former pro football players buy a small Texas town, they didn't intend to start a war with its residents ... or to fall in love. Ever since his career-ending injury, Pat has bounced from job to job, idea to idea, short-lived relationship to short-lived relationship. But when his father purchases the town of Sheet Cake, Pat suddenly sees his life with clear purpose: get his brothers on board with his dad's wild idea and win back the one woman who got away. Lindy was supposed to be traveling the world, not stuck in a small town, caring for her niece. But she would do anything to keep custody of Jo--even if that looks like a marriage of convenience with the man who already broke her heart once. Now if she can only keep herself from falling back in love with her husband... This is a small town, marriage of convenience romantic comedy with plenty of sizzle while keeping the bedroom door closed. It's the first in a spinoff series following Harper's brothers (from Falling for Your Best Friend). You don't need to have read the Love Clichés series first to enjoy this book.

In the spirit of The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning and The Joy of Less, experience the benefits of buying less and sharing more with this accessible 7-step guide to decluttering, saving money, and creating community from the creators of the Buy Nothing Project. In their island community, friends Liesl Clark and Rebecca Rockefeller discovered that the beaches of Puget Sound were spoiled by a daily influx of plastic items and trash washing on shore. From pens and toothbrushes to toys and straws, they wondered, where did it all come from? Of course, it comes from us—our homes, our backyards, our cars, and our workplaces. And so, a rallying cry against excess stuff was born. In 2013, they launched the first Facebook Buy Nothing Project group in their small town off the coast of Seattle, and they never expected it to become a viral sensation. Today there are thousands of Buy Nothing groups all over the world, boasting more than a million members, and 5,000 highly active volunteers. Inspired by the ancient practice of gift economies, where neighbors share and pool resources,The Buy Nothing, Get Everything Plan introduces an environmentally conscious 7-step guide that teaches us how to buy less, give more, and live generously. At once an actionable plan and a thought-provoking exploration of our addiction to stuff, this powerful program will help you declutter your home without filling landfills, shop more thoughtfully and discerningly, and let go of the need to buy new things. Filled with helpful lists and practical suggestions including 50 items you never need to buy (Ziploc bags and paper towels) and 50 things to make instead (gift cards and salad dressing), The Buy Nothing, Get Everything Plan encourages you to rethink why you shop and embrace a space-saving, money-saving, and earth-saving mindset of buying less and sharing more.

Download and read online ebook The Buy-In: A Novel write by Hakeela Buford. This book was released on 2023-06-22. The Buy-In: A Novel available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. It was a love story... that wasn't supposed to be a love story. And it started with Instagram. Now, it will end with... You, joining the campaign: The Buy-In. An interactive romance novel. What to do when you meet that one person in the audience who makes you more authentic and stop selling a story? After returning home from a book signing for her latest release, Arielle "Elle" Smith (@ElWordSmith) walks in on a surprise that is unfortunately not really such a surprise and makes a vow right then and there that selling stories is exactly and solely what she’ll be focusing on for the foreseeable future. That is until, just a matter of weeks later, the Las Vegas-based, now relationship-jaded, Black lesbian rising author receives a business proposition from the mysterious LA-based actress/aspiring restaurateur Jae'cy Carter (@J_Carter) ... and then some. A serious yet funny yet suspenseful (sometimes even a bit steamy) "learning to love again" story, The Buy-In centers around two Black women, two thirty-something Millennials trying to write their next big book so as to never return to the corporate world again (introverted yet unintentionally charming Arielle), open their dream café to prove it to themselves (collected yet passionate Jae'cy), and do everything else BUT fall in love. But the heart wants what the heart wants, no matter how much one tries to fight it. No matter what the differences—beyond one being lesbian and the other (?) not, beyond one loving R&B while the other prefers rap, beyond the surface. And so, the two women who were business colleagues then become friends. Then become…Well, you’ll have to read on in this storyline to see how this relationship develops. A slow-paced storyline…that’s to be expected in the case of those who’ve become so used to protecting their hearts and not expecting it to open up. Until they meet that one person…with the same exact crux, even if it’s dressed up differently. So yes, you might (er…will) find yourself shouting at the page (or the screen) at the two leading ladies more than a time or two (or three) for them to finally get their act together. But that’s what happens when MARKETING MEETS ACTING MEETS EVEN MORE STORYTELLING. AND WE'RE NOT TALKING CAMPAIGNS. UNLESS... love is considered one. One that requires selling less and being more (real), which is most times easier said than done. And that’s just the start of this love story’s twists and turns… Whether you go the e-book route or stick with the good ole fashioned print book (Elle-approved), you'll be immersed in an interactive experience, joining Arielle "Elle" and Jae'cy on their journey, both shared and separate. Just pay attention to the tappable links (the digital route) or the QR codes (the print route). Oh—and having a high musical IQ, especially from the '90s and early 2000s, will be another thing to make your experience the best while reading this. (So, that brings us to...Disclaimer: A lot of music references take on their own language here. Can't say we didn't warn you.)

Download and read online ebook There Are No Accidents write by Jessie Singer. This book was released on 2023-02-28. There Are No Accidents available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. A journalist recounts the surprising history of accidents and reveals how they’ve come to define all that’s wrong with America. We hear it all the time: “Sorry, it was just an accident.” And we’ve been deeply conditioned to just accept that explanation and move on. But as Jessie Singer argues convincingly: There are no such things as accidents. The vast majority of mishaps are not random but predictable and preventable. Singer uncovers just how the term “accident” itself protects those in power and leaves the most vulnerable in harm’s way, preventing investigations, pushing off debts, blaming the victims, diluting anger, and even sparking empathy for the perpetrators. As the rate of accidental death skyrockets in America, the poor and people of color end up bearing the brunt of the violence and blame, while the powerful use the excuse of the “accident” to avoid consequences for their actions. Born of the death of her best friend, and the killer who insisted it was an accident, this book is a moving investigation of the sort of tragedies that are all too common, and all too commonly ignored. In this revelatory book, Singer tracks accidental death in America from turn of the century factories and coal mines to today’s urban highways, rural hospitals, and Superfund sites. Drawing connections between traffic accidents, accidental opioid overdoses, and accidental oil spills, Singer proves that what we call accidents are hardly random. Rather, who lives and dies by an accident in America is defined by money and power. She also presents a variety of actions we can take as individuals and as a society to stem the tide of “accidents”—saving lives and holding the guilty to account.
