Make that the world. I worked hard to get this job, going above and beyond at every turn, making myself invaluable. The obvious choice.It wasn’t for career advancement, though. It’s because I’ve got a secret. I’m not who Mac Mackenzie thinks I am, and I’m on a mission to prove that he’s not who the world thinks he is.All I need is evidence. That’s why I’ve been working so hard to get close to him, so that I would have enough access to gather it.There’s only one problem, though. Now that I know him, I’m starting to think that maybe I have the wrong target. Maybe he’s not the man I thought he was before I met him. That maybe I’m falling for the man I’m finding out he is.I thought working with Mac would be simple, but now that love is involved, things are getting very complicated.Mac MackenzieWhen I promoted Kira Baker to be my “right hand woman,” I knew it was going to be hard to keep my mind on work when she was around. Her chestnut curls, her deep hazel eyes, her curves that go on for days…all of these things are very distracting.But when things heat up between us, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that this is more than just a physical attraction.And when I find out things about her past that she thought would always stay hidden, I know one thing for certain—I will do anything to protect her.
The End of Prosperity: How Higher Taxes Will Doom the Economy--If We Let It Happen
Arthur B. Laffer - 2008
Tanous to send Americans an urgent message: We risk losing the exceptional standard of living that has made us the envy of the rest of the world if the pro-growth policies of the last twenty-five years are reversed by a new president. Since the early 1980s, the United States has experienced a wave of prosperity almost unprecedented in history in terms of wealth creation, new jobs, and improved living standards for all. Under the leadership of Presidents Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton, Americans changed the incentive structure on taxes, inflation, and regulation, and as a result the economy roared back to life after the anti-growth, high-inflation 1970s. Now the rest of the world is following the American economic growth model of lower tax rates, more economic freedom, and sound money. Paradoxically, one country is moving away from these growth policies and putting its prosperity at risk -- America. On the eve of a critical presidential election, Laffer, Moore, and Tanous provide the factual information every American needs in order to understand exactly how we achieved the prosperity many people have come to take for granted, and explain how the policies of Democrats Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Nancy Pelosi can cause America to lose its status as the world's growth and job creation machine. The End of Prosperity is essential reading for all Americans who value our nation's free enterprise system and high standard of living, and want to know how to protect their own investments in the coming storm.

The Trouble with Europe: Why the EU Isn't Working - How it Can Be Reformed - What Could Take Its Place
Roger Bootle - 2014
But as Europe moves into the second decade of the twenty-first century, problems are multiplying—problems that arose due to the EU's very existence. In The Trouble with Europe, Roger Bootle, winner of the 2012 Wolfson Economics Prize, tackles the uncomfortable truth that the European Union might be going down—and could take the global economy with it.Bootle expertly outlines the factors that gave birth to the European union of the twentieth century, from the collective Euro-spirit that initiated a solution to the region's various problems and the subsequent unforeseen consequences of the compromises nations made in order to create a sustainable organization. Bootle examines how the euro has hindered independent actions of member nations, both economically and politically, before envisaging how a post-EU Europe might come about and how it would affect the United Kingdom, along with other member states and the world at large. Is a full dissolution the only answer or could the United Kingdom's withdrawal be a viable course of action? With EU elections looming in May 2014, The Trouble with Europe is a compelling read for anyone interested in the economic, political, and social future of the United Kingdom and all of Europe.Roger Bootle is an economist and a weekly columnist for the Daily Telegraph. He is currently the managing director of Capital Economics, an independent macroeconomic research consultancy. Bootle is the author of several books, including The Trouble with Markets and Money for Nothing.

RESET: Regaining India’s Economic Legacy
Subramanian Swamy - 2019
The monograph vociferouslydemanded that socialism be sacrificed for a competitive market economic system, so India cangrow at 10 per cent per year, achieve self-reliance, full employment and produce nuclear weaponry.The then Prime Minister Indira Gandhi denounced the plan as dangerous.Fifty years later, Swamy redefines his path-breaking ideas on India-specific economic developmentin his seminal work, Reset. It undertakes a nuanced analysis of the manner in which the highlyprosperous Indian economy witnessed a long, accelerated decline due to persistent British imperialistaggression, and compares the distinctive manner in which Asian giants—India and China—sufferedat the hands of imperialism. He critically analyses the highs and lows of the Nehruvian model ofcentralized economic planning borrowed from the Soviet Union, and the debilitating circumstancesthat impelled him, as Commerce Minister in Prime Minister Chandra Shekhar’s government, todraw up a blueprint for economic reforms.
