His hand extended, palm upturned, he wiggled his fingers, and she settled hers in it, rising at his tug. He didn't bother to close the car door, but walked her into the light of his headlamps and drew her into his arms. Swaying, he sang a tune from his younger years, but what had been done on a stage in a cloud of cigarette smoke in front of people who didn't care about the words held a new meaning spoken to her. She gazed at him briefly, then dropped her cheek to his chest, and something happened in his heart that he couldn't stop. She burnt a place there, a hollow shaped exactly like her, and he determined to somehow make it stay. Though she grew up with her hippy mom on the west coast, Pepper Dupree has always been close to her billionaire dad, which made moving home to nurse him through a horrible illness an easy choice. But from the start, something isn't normal. He's uneasy, unsettled. A late night drive to scope out a possible multimillion-dollar sale lands real-estate mogul, Bryon Spelding, at Pepper's door, and instantly, there are sparks. Yet, she's the first woman to interest him since he straightened up his life, and he's not sure how to behave. Especially given the secret he's kept from everyone. A secret that takes on new weight when Pepper's dad gives her his entire estate. It's money she would have inherited anyway, so why now? The truth will rock the Billionaire Boys Club and force Bryon's hidden life to the forefront where the woman he's fallen for might not like what she sees. Book 6 in the BILLIONAIRE BOYS CLUB by best-selling author, SUZANNE D. WILLIAMS.

Conceptually, a database consists of objects and relationships. Object Relationship Notation (ORN) is a simple notation that more precisely defines relationships by combining UML multiplicities with uniquely defined referential actions. This book shows how ORN can be used in UML class diagrams and database definition languages (DDLs) to better model and implement relationships and thus more productively develop database applications. For the database developer, it presents many examples of relationships modeled using ORN-extended class diagrams and shows how these relationships are easily mapped to an ORN-extended SQL or Object DDL. For the DBMS developer, it presents the specifications and algorithms needed to implement ORN in a relational and object DBMS. This book also describes tools that can be downloaded or accessed via the Web. These tools allow databases to be modeled using ORN and implemented using automatic code generation that adds ORN support to Microsoft SQL Server and Progress Object Store. Object Relationship Notation (ORN) for Database Applications: Enhancing the Modeling and Implementation of Associations is written for research scientists, research libraries, professionals, and advanced-level students in computer science.

They fall in love and marry in Athens despite Rashid already being married with a family. But being a Muslim he claims his marriage is over and he can have more than one wife but the other compelling reason is that Rashid doesn't have a passport and he desperately wants to get into Australia and can now travel on his new wife's passport. However the marriage becomes very stormy after only a few months with many episodes of domestic violence. After they settle in Australia, Tianne decides to leave Rashid but as he is very jealous and controlling this is not easy for her. Eventually, Tianne's battered and strangled body is discovered on a Gold Coast golf course and a murder warrant is issued for Rashid and he is arrested in Melbourne attempting to flee Austalia under a false name. He is extradited to Brisbane and the ensuing investigation and court cases make Australian legal history. Not in the Public Interest is an intriguing new theory based on a true story as recalled by Tianne's mother, Patti, in her struggle to bring her daughter's murderer to justice but it appears that hidden forces are at work to prevent this from happening.

The intertwining histories of Lincoln and the MormonsAlthough they inhabited different political, social, and cultural arenas, Abraham Lincoln and the pioneer generation of Latterday Saints, or Mormons, shared the same nineteenthcentury world. Bryon C. Andreasen’s Looking for Lincoln in Illinois: Lincoln and Mormon Country relates more than thirty fascinating and surprising stories that show how the lives of Lincoln and the Mormons intersected.This richly illustrated and carefully researched book expands on some of the storyboards found on the Looking for Lincoln Story Trail from the Mormon capital of Nauvoo to the state capital of Springfield. Created by the Looking for Lincoln Heritage Coalition, this trail consists of wayside exhibits posted in sites of significance to Lincoln’s life and career across fiftytwo communities in Illinois. The book’s keyed maps, historic photos, and descriptions of events at inns, federal buildings, battles, Mormon expeditions, and even Lincoln’s first Illinois log cabin connect the stories to their physical locations.Exploring the intriguing question of whether Lincoln and Mormon founder Joseph Smith ever met, the book reveals that they traveled the same routes and likely stayed at the same inns. The book also includes colorful and engaging looks at key figures such as Brigham Young, various Mormon apostles, Mormon gunsmith Jonathan Browning, and more. For example, the author relates that Lincoln visited Browning in Quincy, and upon learning that Browning had once traded a gun for a Bible, quipped that it was like “turning swords into plowshares.” Anyone inspired by Lincoln, as well as Mormon and Illinois history enthusiasts, will appreciate this look back at a longpast, but not forgotten, landscape.
Uncovering the healing bond between generationsLisa Fay Coutley’s lyrical debut collection, Errata, investigates the delicate balance between parent and child, love and loss, hope and grief. Errata’s narrator reflects on struggles and fears that span generations in compositions that are at once musical and bleak. Coutley’s narrative journey is often a dark one, exploring not only the loss of loved ones but also the potential to lose one’s very self. The collection unravels the lingering consequences of abuse and addiction, yet threads of hope and determination weave a finely wrought path through the dark side of human relationships, illuminating the power of the will to survive. Coutley’s sharp yet tender collection will both haunt readers and move them to reflect, to remember, and most of all, to persevere.
