Three people's lives intersect in a tumultuous yet redeeming way that none of them could have ever predicted. Jenny is a young professional from the South with an upbringing she wants to forget. She meets Roshan, an Indian immigrant who has moved to the United States with his mother, Esha, to escape family ghosts. With strong cultural tradition, Esha has devoted her entire life to her only child, both for his own good and for her personal protection from a painful past. Roshan understands his role as his mother's refuge, and from an early age, he commits himself to caring for her. But when Jenny and Roshan embark on a forbidden, intercultural relationship, all three get tangled into an inseparable web-betrayal, violence, and shame-leaving them forced to make choices about love and family they never wanted to make while finding peace where they never expected to look.

"The Unexpected" posits a new theory about the relationship between service and customer loyalty, as well as how to execute it. Four elements comprise The Unexpected: It is memorable, distinguishable, viral, and profitable. Delivering The Unexpected starts at the top of an organization and requires senior executive buy-in. It is executed at ground level and requires empowerment of employees at all levels of an organization. The Unexpected does not have to be costly, and relies more upon creativity, innovation and training team members to see - and act upon - opportunities when they present themselves. Finally, it can be delivered by any organization in any industry and of any size. "The Unexpected" is designed for entrepreneurs and business owners; senior executives; educational professionals; and front-line service employees. The book is written by Howard Brodsky, co-founder and co-CEO of CCA Global Partners, a $10 billion privately held organization; and Dustin S. Klein, publisher of Smart Business magazine and co-author of the Amazon #1 bestseller, "The Benevolent Dictator".

From Newbery Medal winner and bestselling author Sharon Creech comes a grand, sweeping yarn that is a celebration of the great and unexpected gifts of love, friendship, and forgiveness. With a starred review from Kirkus Reviews calling it an "enchanting tale to treasure," The Great Unexpected captures the heart and the imagination. Humorous and heartfelt, this is a story of pairs—of young Naomi and Lizzie, both orphans in present-day Blackbird Tree, USA, and of Sybil and Nula, grown-up sisters from faraway Rook's Orchard, Ireland, who have become estranged. Young Naomi Deane is brimming with curiosity and her best friend, Lizzie Scatterding, could talk the ears off a cornfield. Naomi has a knack for being around when trouble happens. She knows all the peculiar people in town—like Crazy Cora and Witch Wiggins. But then, one day, a boy drops out of a tree. Just like that. A strangely charming Finn boy. And then the Dingle Dangle man appears, asking all kinds of questions. Curious surprises are revealed—three locked trunks, a pair of rooks, a crooked bridge, and that boy—and soon Naomi and Lizzie find their lives changed forever. As two worlds are woven together, Creech reveals that hearts can be mended and that there is indeed a gossamer thread that connects us all.
