An ice queen. A billionaire. A bribe turned to hell. And a date that leads Griffin into the wrong arms…at just the right moment. We’re smack dab in the middle of the biggest land development deal we’ve ever had. Sure, it’s with our brothers, but there’s still an expectation to uphold. Which is why it’s all that much more difficult to keep my head on straight. Especially when a certain someone ends up in the hospital, and I spend the night with her. It looks bad, I know, but I wasn’t leaving her. But now she’s pushing me away, like she’s punishing me for helping her. The girl is messed up. And don’t give me any of that crap about her healing from her past. Yolanda’s just cold. She’s looking to make me look bad. Until another certain someone comes into the picture. No, she doesn’t like that at all, so now all bets are off and the tables are turned. I can’t wait to see how she reacts when this other woman shows up unexpectedly, a half day’s drive away from home, just to see me. We’ll see then what Yolanda’s true colors are. *** Griffin is just like every other man. He wants me just to fulfill some locker room bet between him and his brothers. They all know who I am and what I used to be. It is all because of one of the Ford brothers and his big mouth. I will never live this legacy down. I will never find true happiness. I will always be hurt because of something that I did for survival. So when Griffin proves me wrong, you will understand why I must send him away. Because I know that deep down it will never work. Until I am given a grave scare and in that same breath a miracle swoops in and shows me how blind I have been. I am a fool. But will I also be a lonely fool? Only an encounter with the devil can show me if that is true. But it could all come tumbling down, anyway, because of another Ford brother, who has broken a cardinal rule. Will this family ever know peace? Will I? Only time will tell… HEA (Happily Ever After) Billionaire romance Medical romance Military romance Medium heat Course language Mild cliffhanger ending

Hidden Danger is a book of poetry written by Jamie L. Sawyers.

Traffication develops a bold new idea: that the trillions of miles of driving we do each year are just as destructive to our natural environment as any of the better known threats, such as habitat loss or intensive farming. The problem is not simply one of roadkill; the impacts of roads are far more pervasive, and they impact our wildlife in many subtle and unpredictable ways. Using the latest research, the book reveals how road traffic shatters essential biological processes, affecting how animals communicate, move around, feed, reproduce and die. Most importantly, it shows that the influence of traffic extends well beyond the verge, and that a busy road can strip the wildlife from our countryside for miles around. In the UK, almost nowhere is exempt from this environmental toll. Yet the final message here is one of hope: by identifying the car as a major cause of the catastrophic loss of wildlife, the solutions to our biodiversity crisis suddenly become much clearer. The first step to solving any problem is to recognise that it exists in the first place. But with road traffic, we are not even at that crucial initial stage in our recovery. Quite simply, Traffication does for road traffic what Silent Spring did for agrochemicals: awakening us from our collective road-blindness and opening up a whole new chapter in conservation. This urgent book is an essential contribution to the debate on how we restore the health of our countryside – and of our own minds and bodies.
