As civil war rages, King Edward IV besieges the northern barons who support the dethroned King Henry VI. Among the last strongholds to fall is Strivling Castle, whose lady gives her life defending her home against the usurpers.

But when a besieger saves her life just as her nightmare unfolds, a future is forced on her she never dreamed possible - with a man who believes she is someone else.

Successful businessman Collier Morrow has everything he could possibly want, including a priceless, unfinished portrait of the legendary Catherine Algernon. When a lie costs him the woman he loves, he finds himself in the midst of the siege upon Strivling Castle, face-to-face with its defender who is the very image of the love he lost.

    Best-selling author Tim Austin notes, "We live in a troubled world, where raising loving, responsible young men is a challenge." He takes a deep look at the important issues relevant to raising “rugged gentlemen” in a world where it is necessary to, sometimes, give them “permission to be tough".With a fresh perspective of the myriad people who shape a young man’s future, Austin provides insight, humor, and proven wisdom, backed by decades of being a parent and coach, to show persons of influence in a young man’s life how to provide the kind of innovative, loving guidance young boys need. His book explains exactly what he feels should be expected of our young men and how some parents inadvertently spoil them rotten.He speaks to the mother’s role to inspire and nurture, whereas a father does better being a role model as he both affirms and challenges them to be their best self. Sports play a big part in the lives of many young men and the coaches who are charged with developing the attitude of a winner.Together with parents and coaches, schools are instrumental in finding the “sweet spot” where boys are kept on a gentle leash, yet learn how to cope in a complicated world. And, in all this mix, “little princes” are sometimes dethroned, yet are also provided an opportunity to “borrow courage” until theirs is evolved.Austin puts a wrap on the book by providing a full chapter of activities designed to strategically connect parent and son and, in the end, give them permission to be tough and become rugged gentlemen. ungekürzt.

    Learn about the inspirational story of Novak Djokovic. In Novak Djokovic: A Biography of the Serbian Superstar, you will learn about the life, professional career, and accomplishments of Novak Djokovic. There were two tennis superstars who ruled the sport - and this is the story of the player who pushed them aside to dominate tennis. Novak Djokovic wasn't supposed to be a tennis player, but as a child he decided to pick up a racquet; and that eventually led him to being the player to end the era of Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal. His story is unlike other player's, as he dodged air strikes in Serbia to practice, then headed to Germany to learn about the game, and progressed to being the highest money earner that tennis has ever seen. All his grand slam wins and all his great rivalries made him a player without equal. Few tennis players have grabbed the attention of tennis fans like Novak Djokovic has. His complete game has won him all four grand slam tournaments. He has set records and is among an elite group of all-time greats. But before he dethroned Roger Federer as tennis' best, he had a unique, and unlikely, journey from tennis courts on a mountain to Centre Court at Wimbledon. Here is a preview of this biography: Novak, tennis, and Serbia The German Tennis Academy 2005 Australian Open Qualifier First ATP title Winning the 2008 Australian Open Chasing Federer Ranked number one in 2011 Battling Federer, Murray, and Nadal Finally gets the French Open Djokovic versus Sampras, Laver, Federer and other greats ungekürzt.

    A provocative user's guide to a world where the only thing that doesn't change is change itself. "Before I die," Albert Einstein once said, "I hope someone will clarify quantum physics for me. After I die, I hope God will explain turbulence to me." Einstein might have been more confused today: Turbulence, in all its manifestations, is on the rise. Financial markets gyrate. Commodity prices zig and zag. New technologies disrupt long-standing businesses and entire industries. Scientific discoveries overturn historical truisms. Dirty bombs and pension busts, natural disasters and flu pandemics, add to the tumult. We live in a world beset by turbulence. We often respond to turbulence by accelerating activities that worked in the past. We lapse into inertia when we should adapt with agility, and we cling to rigid dogmas when we should improvise. But throughout history, volatility has not only dethroned incumbent leaders, it has also created untold possibilities to create economic value. Turbulence has an upside, and companies that seize the opportunities arising out of seething markets will become tomorrow's champions. Based on more than a decade of research, The Upside of Turbulence draws lessons from companies that have consistently spotted and exploited opportunities that rivals have missed. The book explores realms ranging from improvisational comedy to the U.S. Marine Corp's combat doctrine. The result is a series of provocative insights that defy conventional wisdom. The book also introduces practical tools, which have been field-tested by executives around the world, to wrestle triumph out of turmoil.

    “Until the lion has its own storyteller, tales of the lion hunt will always glorify the hunter.” -Zimbabwean proverb  In 2015, an American hunter named Walter Palmer shot and killed a lion named Cecil. The lion was one of dozens slain each year in Zimbabwe, which legally licenses the hunting of big cats. But Cecil’s death sparked unprecedented global outrage, igniting thousands of media reports about the peculiar circumstances surrounding this hunt. At the center of the controversy was Dr. Andrew Loveridge, the zoologist who had studied Cecil for eight years. In Lion Hearted, Loveridge pieces together, for the first time, the fascinating life and murky details of this beloved lion’s slaying.  In the tradition of Born Free and Gorillas in the Mist, Lion Hearted chronicles Loveridge’s long acquaintance with a host of charismatic lions that his team has tracked, often from birth to death.  Born and raised in Zimbabwe, Loveridge learned to love predators at the knee of his father, an eminent herpetologist who stored baby crocodiles in the family bathtub. After earning his doctorate at Oxford, he seized an invitation to study the lions of Zimbabwe’s Hwange National Park. There he meets Stumpy Tail, who, despite her name, has the dignity of the Queen of the Animal Kingdom; Dynamite, a venerable coalition leader who, muscled out by younger males, sets off on an incredible 37-day, 137-mile journey to find a new home; and Kataza, who escapes another lion’s claws, and whom Loveridge twice saves from death at the hands of humans. And, of course, there is Cecil.  Dethroned in an epic battle, he forms an alliance with a former rival. He also becomes a favorite of photographers and tourists - until the fateful night when a Minnesota dentist and his hunting guide entice the trusting cat with a free meal.  Loveridge unravels the complexities of lion society and the dangers the cats face both within their ranks and fr ungekürzt.
