Book excerpt: "Camille Weston, a recently returned missionary, anticipates returning to college for her degree and perhaps to meet a nice guy. A sensible young woman with her future mapped out, Camille would never do something dangerous--like pick up a stranger on the side of the road. And yet, inexplicably, she does just that. This is one split-second decision that changes everything. Determined to lend assistance, Camille gets more than she bargains for when she is roped into helping Liam, a handsome British man, with more than just a ride. As they are thrown together over the coming days and their mutual attraction grows, they realize they just ... click. That is, until she makes a shocking discovery: the mysterious stranger is William 'Liam' Jones, lead singer of the popular band Gear. Camille has never been one to swoon over a celebrity, and she knows her and Liam's lifestyles could never be compatible. But how can she convince her heart to listen to logic?"--

We give 'My Name Is Nelson' five-plus stars and look forward to an equally well-written sequel...it's a tremendously entertaining storyline with rich characterization and cinematic action scenes. It's safe to say the author's crafted a potential bestseller -- and, possibly, a hit movie." (Don Sloan)President Andrew MacIntyre was having a pretty good first year in the Oval Office. Suddenly, during what should have been a peaceful Christmas season, he's facing one of the worst national security crises in American history. And it's being masterminded out of a sleazy, New Mexico strip joint? What the hell?Is this a political thriller? Is it science fiction? A zany comedy? Perhaps it's a love story. Whatever it is, it's a riveting page-turner with a little sex appeal, and a lot of laughter. If "Doctor Strangelove" can find the humor in nuclear war, then surely there's a little bit of laughter lurking in unmanned aviation.It's little wonder White House National Security Advisor Chet Addington* said this was, "Pretty much the best novel ever." *** Absolutely, positively, not a real person** He's been known to be wrong about stuff

Book excerpt: Haeden, petite ville de l’État de New York. La nature a repris ses droits, car le chômage a sévi. C’est l’Amérique post-industrielle dans toute sa noirceur. Un jour, la jeune serveuse Wendy disparaît. Elle est retrouvée dans un triste état. Stacy Flynn, journaliste ambitieuse, est prête à tout pour démasquer les coupables, mais aussi pour rencontrer un homme capable d’assouvir ses besoins. Une adolescente, Alice, partage son obsession pour cette affaire. Ses parents, Gene et Claire, qui tentent de faire coïncider leur existence à Haeden avec leurs rêves de jeunesse, sont loin de comprendre ce que leur fille ressent. Petit à petit, les récits des habitants semblent composer un tableau du drame et des événements qui l’ont précédé. Au sein duquel le lecteur entrevoit une autre tragédie. Mais l’écrivain nous réserve un dénouement à mille lieux de ce qu’on pouvait imaginer. Avec un sens redoutable du suspense, Cara Hoffman nous livre la cartographie réelle d’un monde qu’on aurait pu prendre pour le paradis : une vie saine loin des grandes villes. Elle immortalise également les tourments de l’adolescence et le cauchemar de tout parent.

Book excerpt: A funny, colorful, fascinating tour through the work and life of one of today’s most influential graphic designers. Esquire. Ford Motors. Burton Snowboards. The Obama Administration. While all of these brands are vastly different, they share at least one thing in com­mon: a teeny little bit of Aaron James Draplin. Draplin is one of the new school of influential graphic designers who combine the power of design, social media, entrepreneurship, and DIY aesthetic to create a successful business and way of life. Pretty Much Everything is a mid-career survey of work, case studies, inspiration, road stories, lists, maps, how-tos, and advice. It includes examples of his work—posters, record covers, logos—and presents the process behind his design with projects like Field Notes and the “Things We Love” State Posters. Draplin also offers valuable advice and hilarious commentary that illustrates how much more goes into design than just what appears on the page. With Draplin’s humor and pointed observations on the contemporary design scene, Pretty Much Everything is the complete package.

Book excerpt: A human-centric guide to solving complex problems in engineering management, from sizing teams to handling technical debt. There’s a saying that people don’t leave companies, they leave managers. Management is a key part of any organization, yet the discipline is often self-taught and unstructured. Getting to the good solutions for complex management challenges can make the difference between fulfillment and frustration for teams—and, ultimately, between the success and failure of companies. Will Larson’s An Elegant Puzzle focuses on the particular challenges of engineering management—from sizing teams to handling technical debt to performing succession planning—and provides a path to the good solutions. Drawing from his experience at Digg, Uber, and Stripe, Larson has developed a thoughtful approach to engineering management for leaders of all levels at companies of all sizes. An Elegant Puzzle balances structured principles and human-centric thinking to help any leader create more effective and rewarding organizations for engineers to thrive in.
