Book Description
"This is hockey romance for hockey fans." --Rachel Reid, author of the Game Changers series A veteran hockey player and a rookie can't get away from each other—or their own desires—in this sexy, heartfelt opposites-attract hockey romance. Olly Järvinen has a long way to go. He’s got a fresh start playing for a new team, but getting his hockey career back on track is going to take more than a change of scenery. He’s got to shut his past out and focus. On the game, not on his rookie roommate and his annoyingly sunny disposition—and annoyingly distracting good looks. All Benji Bryzinski ever wanted was to play in the big leagues, and he’s not going to waste one single second of his rookie season. Yoga, kale smoothies and guided meditation help keep his head in the game. But his roommate keeps knocking him off track. Maybe it’s just that Olly is a grumpy bastard. Or maybe it’s something else, something Benji doesn’t have a name for yet. Olly and Benji spend all their time together—on the ice, in the locker room, in their apartment—and ignoring their unspoken feelings isn’t making them go away. Acting on attraction is one thing, but turning a season’s fling into forever would mean facing the past—and redefining the future. Trade Season Book 1: Season's Change Book 2: Contract Season

Seasons of Pleasure - Summer Pleasures: The Capture By Anya Bast Book 3 in the Season series Lilane wants Sudhraian blood on her blade for what they did to her fianci and family in the early days of the Nordanese-Sudhraian war. She stalks and intends to kill Lord Rue d'Ange, the first Sudhraian she sees after the bloody attack on her village. Instead, Rue captures her before she can carry out her plan. Rue recognizes the anger in Lilane and also the pain and vulnerability beneath it. He vows to turn her rage into sexual passion and knows just how to stoke her dark desires. As Rue seduces Lilane, he draws her into a dangerous bluff designed to win Nordan an edge in the war and gain protection for his hunted people, the Aviat. In the end Rue and Lilane might both lose their hearts. and perhaps their lives. Seasons of Pleasure - Autumn Pleasures: The Union By Anya Bast Book 4 in the Seasons series Lord Gregor of Nordan has never wanted a woman like he does Lady Anaisse of Sudhra. After the defeat of her homeland in the Sudhraian-Nordanese war, he makes the "sacrifice" of doing something completely against his country's tradition-taking her to wife. However, convincing her to allow him within her body, let alone her heart, will be another war entirely. Anaisse agrees to the arrangement out of duty to her country, but Gregor frightens her deeply. He seduces her repressed sexual desires to wild and beautiful life, and makes every one of her fantasies come true. Never has she met a man she could so easily lose herself to, body and soul-and losing herself to a man is her greatest fear. But another man lurks in the shadows with the sole purpose of destroying their union. He waits and watcheswith a mind grown twisted by the defeat of his people. His goal is to make Anaisse embrace death, instead of Gregor.

Book Description
Why is it so hard to make lasting changes in our companies, in our communities, and in our own lives? The primary obstacle is a conflict that's built into our brains, say Chip and Dan Heath, authors of the critically acclaimed bestseller Made to Stick. Psychologists have discovered that our minds are ruled by two different systems - the rational mind and the emotional mind—that compete for control. The rational mind wants a great beach body; the emotional mind wants that Oreo cookie. The rational mind wants to change something at work; the emotional mind loves the comfort of the existing routine. This tension can doom a change effort - but if it is overcome, change can come quickly. In Switch, the Heaths show how everyday people - employees and managers, parents and nurses - have united both minds and, as a result, achieved dramatic results: • The lowly medical interns who managed to defeat an entrenched, decades-old medical practice that was endangering patients • The home-organizing guru who developed a simple technique for overcoming the dread of housekeeping • The manager who transformed a lackadaisical customer-support team into service zealots by removing a standard tool of customer service In a compelling, story-driven narrative, the Heaths bring together decades of counterintuitive research in psychology, sociology, and other fields to shed new light on how we can effect transformative change. Switch shows that successful changes follow a pattern, a pattern you can use to make the changes that matter to you, whether your interest is in changing the world or changing your waistline.
