Book excerpt: Three more steamy unforgettable love stories in one paperback. Contains: The billionaire''s Hope, Picked by the Billionaire, Saved by the Billionaire The Billionaire''s Hope: I hadn''t seen her since the day I broke her brother''s nose. We came from different worlds. She was trouble wrapped in temptation, and it would be smart to keep my distance. The last time I''d dared to touch Katie, her brother foolishly took a swing at me. Her family taught me a painful lesson that day about money and power. I gave him a bloody nose. They destroyed my life. Today she desperately needed a ride back to LA. Six hours of her warm body wrapped around mine on the back of my bike was the price she''d have to pay. With her life in flames, the danger was more real than she knew. When she ran from her brother and into my arms, the kiss was meant to scare her off. It didn''t work. She''s sexual napalm, and I''m the match. Now we''re both toast. I''m not giving her up until I have to. Even if it destroys me. Katie: I hadn''t seen Nick since high school, the day he broke my brother''s nose. I bumped into him while trapped in Las Vegas with no way to get home. Maybe this was my second chance. I didn''t accept the ride to LA on the back of his bike just because he''d been the hottest and baddest boy in school. I swear I didn''t. My life was all planned out. I left my sensible house every day in my sensible clothes and went to my sensible job. Until, some crazy targeted me, and it all went up in smoke. Now, I''m done being sensible. I know what I want, and he''s pure trouble. Nick''s all wrong for me, but only he can keep me safe. I''m falling for him. It can''t work. It doesn''t make sense. I''m walking straight into a broken heart, and I can''t stop. Picked by the Billionaire A night I wouldn''t forget. An offer I couldn''t refuse. Liam:I had dared to love once and lost. The memory haunted me every day. Now, I have rules, three simple rules: I don''t do dinner, they never come to my place, and I never stay the night. Until I met the tantalizing Amy and she turned everything upside down. It was just one night. Tomorrow I could get back to normal I told myself. When she turned up at my next meeting, normal was no longer on the horizon. Now, she is essential to defeating my nemesis. One way or another she may be my undoing. Amy:I couldn''t get past my failed marriage - I couldn''t take the terrifying leap. When the question became his place or mine, I ran back to my computer to pick another. My sister convinced me to try shock therapy - a one-night stand to get over my phobia. One night without inhibitions and never see him again, that was the plan. Simple enough, right? The next day, he walked into my meeting. Suddenly things weren''t simple anymore. He held the key to my company''s survival; there was just one catch. I had to pretend to be his girlfriend. How hard could that be? Saved by the Billionaire The FBI and the cartel are after her for the same thing: information she doesn''t have. Natalie had gone from the Belle of Boston to Witch of the West End. Everybody in town hated her for her ex-husband''s crimes. Then the FBI showed up to seize everything she owned. Without a penny to her name, she only survived by taking a job working for the most disagreeable man in town. Billionaire inventor Ryan Westerly had never allowed thoughts of any woman to intrude upon his work. But, from the first day his company hired the beautiful Natalie, he could no longer concentrate. The medicines he was developing were too important to allow her to distract him. For the sake of the children, she had to go. When the cartel comes after Natalie, she trusts him with her safety, but can she trust him with her heart?

Download or read book Brazillionaires written by Alex Cuadros and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Bloomberg News invited the young American journalist Alex Cuadros to report on Brazil's emerging class of billionaires at the height of the historic Brazilian boom, he was poised to cover two of the biggest business stories of our time: how the giants of the developing world were taking their place at the center of global capitalism, and how wealth inequality was changing societies everywhere. The billionaires of Brazil and their massive fortunes resided at the very top of their country's economic pyramid, and whether they quietly accumulated exceptional power or extravagantly displayed their decadence, they formed a potent microcosm of the world's richest .001 percent. They held sway over the economy, government, media, and stewardship of the environment; they determined the spiritual fates and populated the imaginations of their countrymen. In 2012, Eike Batista ranked as the eighth-richest person in the world, was famous for his marriage to a beauty queen, and was a fixture in the Brazilian press. But by 2015, Batista was bankrupt, his son Thor had been indicted for manslaughter, and Brazil--its president facing impeachment, its provinces combating an epidemic, and its business and political class torn apart by scandal--had become a cautionary tale of a country run aground by its elites. Over four years, Cuadros reported on media moguls and televangelists, energy barons and shadowy figures from the years of military dictatorship, soy barons who lived on the outskirts of the Amazon, and new-economy billionaires spinning money from speculation. His zealous reporting takes us from penthouses to courtrooms, from favelas to art fairs, from scenes of unimaginable wealth to desperate, massive street protests. Within a business narrative that deftly dramatizes the volatility of the global economy, Cuadros offers us literary journalism with a grand sweep.--Adapted from dust jacket.

Download or read book Dark Money written by Jane Mayer and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2017-01-24 with total page 577 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER ONE OF THE NEW YORK TIMES 10 BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR Who are the immensely wealthy right-wing ideologues shaping the fate of America today? From the bestselling author of The Dark Side, an electrifying work of investigative journalism that uncovers the agenda of this powerful group. In her new preface, Jane Mayer discusses the results of the most recent election and Donald Trump's victory, and how, despite much discussion to the contrary, this was a huge victory for the billionaires who have been pouring money in the American political system. Why is America living in an age of profound and widening economic inequality? Why have even modest attempts to address climate change been defeated again and again? Why do hedge-fund billionaires pay a far lower tax rate than middle-class workers? In a riveting and indelible feat of reporting, Jane Mayer illuminates the history of an elite cadre of plutocrats—headed by the Kochs, the Scaifes, the Olins, and the Bradleys—who have bankrolled a systematic plan to fundamentally alter the American political system. Mayer traces a byzantine trail of billions of dollars spent by the network, revealing a staggering conglomeration of think tanks, academic institutions, media groups, courthouses, and government allies that have fallen under their sphere of influence. Drawing from hundreds of exclusive interviews, as well as extensive scrutiny of public records, private papers, and court proceedings, Mayer provides vivid portraits of the secretive figures behind the new American oligarchy and a searing look at the carefully concealed agendas steering the nation. Dark Money is an essential book for anyone who cares about the future of American democracy.

Book Synopsis Billionaire Wilderness by : Justin Farrell
Download or read book Billionaire Wilderness written by Justin Farrell and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2021-03-02 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Billionaire Wilderness offers an unprecedented look inside the world of the ultra-wealthy and their relationship to the natural world, showing how the ultra-rich use nature to resolve key predicaments in their lives. Justin Farrell immerses himself in Teton County, Wyoming--both the richest county in the United States and the county with the nation's highest level of income inequality--to investigate interconnected questions about money, nature, and community in the twenty-first century. Farrell draws on three years of in-depth interviews with "ordinary" millionaires and the world's wealthiest billionaires, four years of in-person observation in the community, and original quantitative data to provide comprehensive and unique analytical insight on the ultra-wealthy. He also interviewed low-income workers who could speak to their experiences as employees for and members of the community with these wealthy people.
