Can a movie star truly find love with a simple cowboy? Alice is living the dream - famous movie star with anything her heart could desire. The problem is, it's never been her dream, and the one thing her heart desires can't be found in Hollywood. After an accident almost takes her life, she realizes she needs to get away to figure out what she wants. Ranching is the only thing Brody knows. And when an actress shows up to stay at the bed and breakfast he's operates, while she tries to hide from the rest of the world, he is wary of the media circus that could disrupt his quiet life. As they spend time together, she realizes the life she's been craving just could be found on a ranch in a small town in Montana. But what will happen when her star-studded lifestyle catches up with her, threatening the happiness she's finally found? What can he possibly have to offer her that she doesn't already have?
Growing up an orphan, Claire Anderson had very few people to love. If she found one, she would sacrifice anything to help them. Which is exactly how she found herself out of a job and on the street. With her only friend in the world somewhere out west, married to a Mountie, Claire seeks out the one woman in Ottawa who might be able to help her - Miss Hazel Hughes. Nathaniel Clarke is passionate about his job as a Mountie in Cougar Springs, Alberta, but he's a little lost when it comes to women. All he knows is that he has no interest in the wealthy, spoiled ladies who frequent the town's famous hot springs, so he agrees to be matched with a bride from back east. From the moment Claire steps off the train, she and Nathaniel begin building a life together, learning to trust and care for each other as they go. When an dangerous man from Nathaniel's past arrives in town, he is determined to keep Claire safe. The problem is, she's just as determined to see the man brought to justice. What will happen when trust is broken-even if it is being done for love?
Learning to live with what fate has dealt her, Annie has accepted that she'll never be as beautiful as her sister. After her father is arrested, she realizes her entire life has been a lie. She needs to start over somewhere far away, so her friend sends her to see Miss Hazel in Ottawa. Miss Hazel has four Mounties coming for brides before they make the trek into a remote Ontario community. And she thinks she has the perfect match for Annie, one who will be able to see her beauty inside. Malcolm really doesn't think he needs a wife, but when he sees Annie, something inside him changes. What happens when the daughter of a criminal marries a Mountie intent on upholding the law? Can she trust him not to send her away if she tells him the truth about her life?

This study seeks to resolve differences between various types of political leaders and to link broad historical patterns with the idiosyncratic circumstances of individual lives and careers--to integrate the micro and the macro levels of understanding in the field of leadership studies. To accomplish this task, a vast array of previous scholarship and primary documents has been assembled and drawn into new combinations. Equivalent data on all U.S. presidents enable an unprecedented internal comparison within this select group. Comparison with parallel data, developed for other types of leaders, permits U.S. presidents to be analyzed in comparative perspective for the first time. Against this background, the study creates a unique collection of medical and psychological profiles for the entire set of presidents--a body of data that allows us to discover new combinations and patterns of presidential traits.American presidents emerged from this study looking very much like other political leaders in terms of social background and preparation for a political career. But contrary to myth, the authors found U.S. presidents to be puzzingly unexceptional--even average--in their personal and career characteristics. For other types of leaders, the authors had found distinctive combinations of traits and experiences that seemed to account for their political leadership roles. For the presidents, such combinations seemed elusive, even confounding. They did conclude, however, that presidential leadership is firmly anchored in the cultural, sociological, and historical contexts from which it emerges.

My name is Kay Bey, also known as DaButtonPusha. I spent twenty-one years of my life involved in the creation of hip-hop and indie music. I spent more than half of that time being actively involved in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, local hip-hop/indie From the moment I stepped onto the scene, I noticed some things I felt the scene needed to improve upon. It was only after I became a full-fledged active member of the indie scene as a hip-hop/indie artist-one who was creating, pushing, promoting and performing my own music, did I discover the depths of the ills on the indie music scene and its artists.After about five years of being a part of the scene, I decided that simply being an artist was not good enough, so I changed my mission. My mission became not only to be an artist, but also to be an artist that made a positive impact on the entire Pittsburgh hip-hop/indie music scene.When I began this journey, I had no idea what I was getting myself into, but I did have a clear goal-do for other hip-hop artists what people were unwilling to do for me: build, show love and show support to as many artists as I could and show interest in what they were building.By the end of my journey, I had created several projects: Pittsburgh's longest running live hip-hop showcase called The Hip-Hop Buffet Series; a seven year run of a TV showcase for hip-hop/indie artists called The Ripple Effect, which reached far past Pittsburgh, airing in up to 400,000 homes in the DMV area; two other indie artist TV shows that ran for three years; and an on line TV network called JPBTv.com, which provided various different internet based, internationally viewed showcases for indie artists such as the Go Live Tv Hour, Underground Beast Radio Show and more. I accomplished all of this with little or no help.I disbanded my company, JPB, INC., in 2017. Although my focus has changed some, I-DaButtonPusha-am still actively building with and for independent artists; currently I own a studio and a new media company called Grind City Media, LLC.I am writing this book for encouragement to anyone who wishes to be building in the entertainment field or any other related field and may lack the resources or guidance to do so.I approached Da Building Process much like how people construct a road.This is simply how I did it; I trust it helps someone else.
