It was simple amazing like every job of Melody Anne congratulations can't wait to read more of you book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. one night or a whole life?By Barbara R.I have not read a single book by this author I haven't liked and this is no exception This is the beginning of a new series which is sort of a spin off because it has a few characters from other series. In this book one, we meet three friends who are in foster care. It's horrible but they don't complain because they're afraid they'll be split up. At the ages of 14, 13 and 12 they figure no one will ever want them. One night they rescue 10 year old Michael from drowning. Michael's father, Martin, is so thankful that he adopts the three of them and these five people become a family. (Martin is a widower.) Now we have the characters for the books in this series.20 years later Jackson is in Paris and miserable. He happens to meet Alyssa and they have a one-night stand both thinking that they'll never see each other again. Actually, Alyssa is headed home to Montana to stay with her parents. Her dad works for Martin. Months later Jackson see Alyssa working at the local bar and finds out she's pregnant. It never occurs to him that the baby is his and she's afraid to tell him since she thinks he'll take her baby away. Even though she's pregnant he pursues her believing that all he feels is lust. The story builds from there with Alyssa resisting his charms because he's told her he won't love again and she needs more for her baby.This story contains romance, tension and some steamy sex that moves the story along. Their actions and thoughts make sense and I was routing for them and their baby. I'm ready for the next book in the series.7 of 7 people found the following review helpful. great bookBy field peaI really liked this book, it didn't have all the bad language, or erotic bedroom scenes. That's a big plus for me. Also, for me, I love stories where there is a pregnancy involved and to see how the story line involves. May sound weird, but, for me I just like those stories. Alyssa's modeling career came to an abrupt end when her manager boyfriend emptied her bank account and ruined her professional reputation. Now she's heading to a new town in Montana to rebuild her life-if she can even get there (stupid delayed planes!). But things are looking up when she's upgraded to first class and a mysterious stranger sits down next to her. Jackson Whitman doesn't believe in love, or commitment, or forever-not since he lost his wife and daughter. But the beautiful woman sitting next to him at the gate has him rethinking that position. Can he convince her to be his for the night? Or will she convince him to be hers for a lifetime?Contains mature themes. "[A]n engaging story of second chances and true love that will appeal to readers." ---RT Book sAbout the AuthorMelody Anne is the New York Times bestselling author of the Unexpected Heroes series-a spin-off of her wildly popular Billionaire Bachelors novels featuring the handsome Anderson men-as well as the Baby for the Billionaire series and the Surrender series.

All rights reserved.Her Unexpected Hero TWENTY YEARS LATER ldquo;I promise you, Mom, Irsquo;m fine.rdquo; But Alyssarsquo;s mother kept on saying all the usual motherly things, full of worry and false cheer, not offering her daughter even the remotest chance of interrupting. Alyssa Gerard held her phone wearily against her ear. She had no more words to say, nothing that would make this nightmare end. A nine-hour flight was still ahead of her, then one connection, and shersquo;d be home. Or maybe not. Alyssa had waited in the crowded airport as her ldquo;on-timerdquo; flight was delayed again and again. It was already midafternoon, and shersquo;d been in this boarding area for hours. Were there any other flights with open seats? Not on this day of the year, New Yearrsquo;s Eve. She could either wait for her original flight, or give upmdash;which wasnrsquo;t going to happen. She was more than done with Paris, done with modeling, and done with people in general. This week had started out badly and kept on getting worse. ldquo;.nbsp;.nbsp;. and I know yoursquo;ll really love it in Sterlingnbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;.rdquo; Yes, her mom was still speaking, and yes, she should listen, but as she looked around at all the people in bright colors with what seemed like permanent smiles on their faces, she grew even grumpier and simply couldnrsquo;t force herself to respond. Not that she needed to, as her mom was speaking enough for both of them. Alyssa should be happy, should feel like celebrating, but instead she was fighting tears. ldquo;.nbsp;.nbsp;. Martin is a wonderful boss. Your dad has never been happiernbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;.rdquo; It was all overmdash;everything had ended so much more speedily than it had begun. Shersquo;d set out at the tender age of fifteen, ready to change the world with all the millions shersquo;d make, to see her name in lights, or at least to see her face on every magazine cover ever to grace store shelves and racks. Shersquo;d gotten her dreamnbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;. for a while. And thenmdash;poof!mdash;it was gone. Her body tensed in anger as she found herself wedged between two large men who surely hadnrsquo;t bathed in eons. Her mother continued to yammer away, though Alyssa was long past listening. ldquo;.nbsp;.nbsp;. and you should see Martinrsquo;s boys. They are so handsomenbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;.rdquo; Shaking her head, she took a deep breath. To her left, a heated debate had broken out between a man in a dark blue suit and an attractive blonde. The exchange flung her back into her own head as she was forced to think about what had happened between her and her ex. Her ldquo;trustworthyrdquo; manager, whorsquo;d also happened to be her boyfriend, had taken it allmdash;hersquo;d run away not only with her fortune but with her hopes and dreams and reputation. Now she was stuck in Paris on New Yearrsquo;s Eve, and all she could think about was how badly she wanted to be home, where she could lick her wounds in peace. ldquo;.nbsp;.nbsp;. your father and I are so excited to have you home. I only wish yoursquo;d been here last week. It was our first Christmas with snownbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;.rdquo; To top everything off with a nice, fat cherry, her parents had decided to move out of the thriving Texas town shersquo;d grown up in and hare off to the backwoods of Montana, settling in a place she had never heard of beforemdash;Sterling. Her mother swore up and down theyrsquo;d visited an aunt there several times when she was a kid, but the place must be awful because she couldnrsquo;t even remember it. Great! Just great. She had to go home with her tail tucked between her legs, and it wasnrsquo;t even home. They had snow in Montana? Lots of snow? Like the sort of snow that buried people alive, and they werenrsquo;t found again until months later, when the spring came and the roads finally cleared? She had a feeling she was going to be one of those unsuspecting victimsmdash;huddled in the fetal position as she froze to death in her car. That is, if she was lucky enough to find a car she could afford. ldquo;.nbsp;.nbsp;. Irsquo;ve had quite a time learning to drive in snow, but it can actually be funnbsp;.nbsp;.nbsp;.rdquo; Alyssa had heard some of this before.

It should not be considered a statement of NIOSH policy or of any agency or individual who was involved. PROJECT HEROES Homeland Emergency Response Operational and Equipment Systems Task 1: A Review of Modern Fire Service Hazards and Protection Needs Presented to: National Personal Protective Technology Laboratory National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) Post Office Box 18070 626 Cochrans Mill Road Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania 15236 Presented by: Occupational Health and Safety Division International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) 1750 New York Avenue, N.W. Washington, DC 20006 13 October 2003 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The first task of Project HEROES was undertaken by the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF) to examine and define the protection needs of fire fighters and other first responders during a broad array of different missions. This task began with a review for how the fire service and its responsibilities have changed over the past 20 years since personal protective equipment (PPE) was then affected by Project FIRES. In that 20 year period, the fire service has evolved to gain responsibility for a larger number of missions. Fire suppression is no longer the chief responsibility for most fire departments, but rather responses to a wide range of missions, including emergency medical aid, technical rescue, and more recently the prospect for terrorism events involving weapons of mass destruction. As America’s fire fighters attempt to keep up with these changing roles, it is noted that the level of preparedness and PPE needed to safety carry out the different missions is often lacking.

  • Villains, Victims, and Heroes in Character Theory and Affect Control
    Social Psychology Quarterly 00(0) 1–20 Villains, Victims, and Heroes Ó American Sociological Association 2018 DOI: 10.1177/0190272518781050 in Character Theory and journals.sagepub.com/home/spq Affect Control Theory Kelly Bergstrand1 and James M. Jasper2 Abstract We examine three basic tropes—villain, victim, and hero—that emerge in images, claims, and narratives. We compare recent research on characters with the predictions of an established tradition, affect control theory (ACT). Combined, the theories describe core traits of the vil- lain-victim-hero triad and predict audiences’ reactions. Character theory (CT) can help us understand the cultural roots of evaluation, potency, and activity profiles and the robustness of profile ratings. It also provides nuanced information regarding multiplicity in, and sub- types of, characters and how characters work together to define roles. Character types can be strategically deployed in political realms, potentially guiding strategies, goals, and group dynamics. ACT predictions hold up well, but CT suggests several paths for extension and elaboration. In many cases, cultural research and social psychology work on parallel tracks, with little cross-talk. They have much to learn from each other. Keywords affect control theory, character theory, heroes, victims, villains On October 9, 2012, 15-year-old Malala including one attack in December 2014 Yousafzai went to school, despite the Tali- that killed 132 schoolchildren and another ban’s intense campaign to stop female in January 2016 where 22 people were education in her region of Pakistan and gunned down at a university.

  • COVID-19 & Healthcare Workers: Heroes Or Villains?
    COVID-19 & Healthcare Workers: Heroes or Villains? By Elizabeth Ziemba, JD, MPH, President, Medical Tourism Training Part 2 of 3-part series exploring the relationship between and among healthcare workers, society, patients, and the impact of COVID-19 on the delivery of healthcare services. The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented pressures on healthcare systems and healthcare professionals. Societies have responded in conflicting and contradictory ways resulting in healthcare workers to become the targets of a range of emotion from adulation to hatred. What impact have these responses had on healthcare professionals and the organizations for which they work? Healthcare Professionals as Heroes People around the world are expressing their appreciation to healthcare professionals for the work that they are doing. Social media pages for hospitals and clinics are filled with messages of gratitude, examples of courage, wonderful stories, and other positive sentiments. Hospitals and clinics are inviting these messages and have created programs to celebrate Healthcare Heroes. Websites have sprung up celebrating “our heroes”.i Few people are asking doctors, nurses, and other Gardiner Anderson/for New York Daily News healthcare professionals how they think and feel about being called “heroes”. Formal research seems to have left this question unexamined; however, there are interesting responses from healthcare professionals themselves. Social media, marketing & branding Everyone likes to be thanked for doing a good job. Humans appreciate being acknowledged and praised for their contributions. Many people simply derive their own satisfaction from a job well done. Healthcare professionals, in particular, are drawn to their work because they want to help people.

    DON EDWINGS ALMOST SUPER HEROES PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Don Edwing | 192 pages | 01 Mar 1988 | Warner Books (NY) | 9780446350709 | English | United States Don Edwings Almost Super Heroes PDF Book It is now stronger than ever: The Fifth Edition of Readings in Ancient Greek Philosophy features a completely revised Aristotle unit, with new translations, as well as a newly revised glossary. So here is my addition. In fact, I had corrected other misspellings of Black Lightning and missed those other few. For every superhero, there's a supervillain, and the best ones are usually the loyal ally who turns out to be playing a double-game. Here, our hero is frequently outwitted by his malevolent rivals, the Rogues, despite his supposedly superior brainpower. Interesting plot with plenty of intrigue and action. In short, the Falcon is a hero among heroes. Almost Super 2. Great list, but I find myself enjoying the also ran characters mentioned in the comments section. See comments. Also, if you really want to read a superhero book or know a young middle grader who likes them and could do with some good lessons on friendships and family —then by all means point them toward the first book, Almost Super. With the exception of Spider-Man, almost all of Lee's household-name heroes were drawn by a fellow called Jack Kirby, who never enjoyed the star cameos Stan did in the Marvel movies. TopTenz Master on January 11, pm. Trivia About Searching for Sup Though Luthor later went back to his villainous roots — way, way back — founding a version of the Legion of Doom, he'll return to the Justice League as a hero once more in the upcoming 'Doom Metal' arc of Justice League , which ties into the current Dark Nights: Death Metal limited series.
