    If it weren’t for my business partner hiring her to redecorate our new office, our paths would never cross.But she’s here now and we’re forced to work together. I just need to get through the next couple of weeks without losing my mind…or my heart.EXCERPT:“Honestly, I don’t think we need much,” I started, trying to assert myself again. “Maybe some wall art or something? Nothing too flashy.”Her tinkling laughter stopped short when she realized I was being serious. “Oh tasty gravy, no. This place needs an overhaul. I can see why your business partner wanted a professional.”An overhaul? “What do you mean?”“Well, this place feels like a tomb. A cement box where dreams go to die,” she answered with another of those smiles. “Probably not the message you want to send to potential clients, right?”I stared, incredulous, sputtering a little as I said, “I hardly think that’s how people feel when they walk into our office.”“It’s how I felt when I walked in,” Kitt admitted, gesturing to the gray walls and steel furnishings. “There’s nothing inviting about a giant, gray blob of space. I mean, prisons are giant gray blobs. Let that sink in for a minute and you’ll get where I’m coming from. But don’t worry, I can fix that for you.” She tapped her head. “I’ve already got some ideas percolating.”I couldn't help but bristle a little. "Well we're not trying to impress the Queen of England. We work with blue-collar people and they don't much care about the froufrou stuff. They just want to know that we can do the job for them so that they can do theirs."“Yeah, I get that but first impressions are everything and this place is depressing.” Something oldSomething newWill you say “I do”? Fourteen best-selling Flirt Club authors are headed down the aisle with a new collection of steamy, sweet stories!

    It contains the complete Called by the Bear trilogy and the complete Tempted by the Bear trilogy.Called by the Bear ~Who up and moves from California to Maine based on a recurring dream? No one who's thinking straight--but that's what I convinced my best friend, Sierra, we should do.Did I mention that dream includes smoking-hot guys? Or that we both have tattoos nobody else can see?Like I said, this isn't normal. Neither is the fact our cross-country road trip nabs us two more women like us--all of us summoned by something we don't understand.Now here we are in Maine where they grow the men big. The women too. Things that shouldn't happen, do. Things that shouldn't exist, do.Where fate is more than a joke--because it appears I was called here for a reason. To save a clan of werebear, to have a true mate by my side. But can I become what destiny has planned for me and save a clan from extinction?Tempted by the Bear ~ Helping a polar bear clan in need sounded like a good idea at the time…Because the alpha, Tristan De Rozier is so hot he's got to be the reason his polar bear clan’s glacier is melting. But his personality leaves something to be desired. Every time he opens his mouth he makes my blood boil in anger! Figures he's my true mate, which means I need to find a way to get along with him before we kill each other.~I, Isabelle DeRozier should be living the life of leisure as the sister to the alpha of my polar bear clan. Unfortunately, global warming means our glacier practically disappeared, so when Annie LeRoux extended her sweet naïve hand out to us, my brother Tristan and I came to Maine with the plan to steal the LeRoux kingdom. It would have been easy too. But Tristan had to fall for the very women we plan to betray.It’s time to take matters into my own hands. Even if it means my bi-polar curse might get out of control. Hold on tight for the wild ride that will leave you sleepless until it ends!

    Nevertheless, it is also the most complex and yet to be understood emotion. Ask anyone what love is? And the most common answer you would get is,"it is a feeling which cannot be completely defined". Strange but true. An emotion which in the history of mankind has changed destinies and shaped millions of lives is still not fully comprehended.But, if you ask this question to 'Rishi Sinha' the only answer you will get is 'Ananya Tripathi'. Life has completely changed since the day he confessed his love for her. Romantic dates, late night phone calls and never ending SMS's. A 'happy go lucky couple', madly and completely in love.Everything was going on smooth until one day, when Rishi is put into a National Level competition with 'Pragya'… his screwed up past and the biggest mistake of his life. He has no choice but to represent his college with Pragya and of course win the title too.Rishi tells Ananya about the competition, who, like a mature girl understands his condition and has no objection in his working with her. But, fate has something else in store for him. Now Rishi is in a dilemma. On one side is 'Ananya', the love of his life and on the other side is 'Pragya', a dying and needy friend. On one side is his most ruined past, while on the other his present, his future. He has to choose between the two. Whom will he choose?'One Life, One Love' is a tale of 'Love' and 'Friendship' along with some social issues like 'Prostitution', 'Mafia', 'Live in' and 'Gambling' which we talk and read about daily but never realise how intense they are. Will Rishi be able to take the right decision and save his relationship?What has Rishi's fate in store for him? All your answers lie here, in this emotional yet witty tale by Rochak Bhatnagar…

    

    Others who have no intention of ever studying the subject have this notion that calculus is impossibly difficult unless you happen to be a direct descendant of Einstein. Well, the good news is that you can master calculus. It's not nearly as tough as its mystique would lead you to think. Much of calculus is really just very advanced algebra, geometry, and trig. It builds upon and is a logical extension of those subjects. If you can do algebra, geometry, and trig, you can do calculus.Calculus For Dummies is intended for three groups of readers:Students taking their first calculus course - If you're enrolled in a calculus course and you find your textbook less than crystal clear, this is the book for you. It covers the most important topics in the first year of calculus: differentiation, integration, and infinite series.Students who need to brush up on their calculus to prepare for other studies - If you've had elementary calculus, but it's been a couple of years and you want to review the concepts to prepare for, say, some graduate program, Calculus For Dummies will give you a thorough, no-nonsense refresher course.Adults of all ages who'd like a good introduction to the subject - Non-student readers will find the book's exposition clear and accessible. Calculus For Dummies takes calculus out of the ivory tower and brings it down to earth. This is a user-friendly math book. Whenever possible, the author explains the calculus concepts by showing you connections between the calculus ideas and easier ideas from algebra and geometry. Then, you'll see how the calculus concepts work in concrete examples. All explanations are in plain English, not math-speak. Calculus For Dummies covers the following topics and more:Real-world examples of calculus The two big ideas of calculus: differentiation and integration Why calculus works Pre-algebra and algebra review Common functions and their graphs Limits and continuity Integration and approximating area Sequences and series Don't buy the misconception. Sure calculus is difficult - but it's manageable, doable. You made it through algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Well, calculus just picks up where they leave off - it's simply the next step in a logical progression.
