Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When struggling waitress Melody Dylan gives a handsome, lonely stranger a simple gift she has no clue her life is about to take a drastic turn. The stranger ends up being Clay Powers, a famous UFC heavyweight fighter. Clay's large build and dangerous fists have always intimidated. People in his hometown keep their distance and Clay is fine with that. Everything changes when a new waitress at the local diner buys him a piece of pie on Thanksgiving. Touched by the gesture when it's obvious she can barely afford to survive, her warm smile and lush body churn up powerful feelings that leave Clay wanting more from her than pie. Melody is running from her past and the small, country town of Garnet is the perfect hiding place. With an ex-husband after her and scars from her abusive marriage etched deep, the last thing she expects is to fall for a man who makes a living with his fists, but she can't resist Clay or the tender connection they share. Finding love in the most unlikely of places, the passion is undeniable, but Clay and Melody know their haunted pasts and unpredictable futures leave the odds stacked against them.

Book excerpt: The true story of one Engineer's battle with one of the most powerful state agencies in Texas. David V. Day, P.E., takes on the Texas Department of Insurance (TDI) in a battle that has lasted nearly half a decade, and is still ongoing as of this print. Day exposes the lengths that TDI Engineers, inspectors, and legal staff will go to punish any Engineer or contractor who disagrees with them; including punishing, silencing or terminating their own employees who are sympathetic to TDI's targets. It is a story filled with so many twists, larger-than-life characters, intrigue, and shady government officials; you will believe you are reading an espionage thriller. It is a remarkable story of defying the odds, something Day has done all his life. From the circumstances of his birth, to the chance meeting of his wife, to taking on the largest state agency in Texas, and even miraculously surviving a vehicle rollover with his family; an event that inspired him to tell his story. Day takes on real life villains, exposing incompetence and corruption at the highest levels of the state government and courts. He does this with the help of two experienced attorneys and numerous engineers who have faced similar persecution from TDI. A must read for anyone who has ever struggled against corruption or had a bad experience with their insurance company, permit office or any unaccountable bureaucrat. All licensed professionals need to read this.

Download or read book Defying the Odds written by Devesh Kapur and published by Random House India. This book was released on 2014-07-18 with total page 335 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defying the Odds is about the new Dalit identity. It profiles the phenomenal rise of twenty Dalit entrepreneurs, the few who through a combination of grit, ambition, drive and hustle—and some luck—have managed to break through social, economic and practical barriers. It illustrates instances where adversity compensated for disadvantage, where working their way up from the bottom instilled in Dalit entrepreneurs a much greater resilience as well as a willingness to seize opportunities in sectors and locations eschewed by more privileged business groups. Traditional Dalit narratives are marked by struggle for identity, rights, equality and for inclusion. These inspiring stories capture both the difficulty of their circumstances as well as their extraordinary steadfastness, while bringing light to the possibilities of entrepreneurship as a tool of social empowerment.
Download or read book Defying the Odds written by Gelya Frank and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Defying the Odds examines the history of theTule River Tribe, a constituency of 1,500 members descended from the Southern Valley Yokuts Indians of California's Great Central Valley. This innovative book presents the first-ever study of a California tribe's political survival and transformation under American rule - from California statehood through the current Indian gaming era. The Tule River Tribe's struggle for sovereignty withstood challenges from political and legal institutions. Tribal members both reasserted and recast their traditions to preserve unity while competing for resources on their commonly owned reservation land base. The authors bring their remarkably rich knowledge of the Tribe's families and of federal Indian law to show how traditional leadership reemerged in the 1930s, under the Indian New Deal, through direct descendants of former chiefs. Vibrant portraits of men and women of the Tule River Tribe create a compelling narrative history, highlighting twentieth-century victories in land claims, government-to-government battles over Indian gaming, and use of Yokuts' traditional consensus - based negotiations over water rights with the Tribe's downstream neighbors. On every page of this groundbreaking book, the Tule River Tribe remains in frame as the protagonist of this exemplary story of indigenous struggle and triumph.

Download or read book Defying the Odds written by Michele Cunningham and published by Hachette Australia. This book was released on 2013-07-01 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Australian servicemen captured by the Japanese in World War II, humour, courage and dignity in the face of hardship, brutality and deprivation ? and hope in the face of the unknown ? were quiet victories. They defined a uniquely Australian spirit. Defying the Odds tells the incredible story of the officers of B and E Forces interned at Sandakan and Kuching in Borneo. Despite the starvation and the trauma they suffered at the hands of the Japanese, they boosted morale through a regimen of study, music and theatre, and most importantly, by making each other laugh. After the war, military authorities were impressed by their physical and mental resilience and astounded by their achievements. As the years passed, they frequently held reunions to remember their experiences, to relive the jokes and the times they outwitted the guards, to recall old songs and the musicals and plays they staged ? to honour friendships wrought by the war. This is a full-length account of how the officers of B and E Forces defied the odds, and survived.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For every tough blow, shift your focus and Get T.O.U.G.H! Be Tenacious; Seek Opportunities; Embrace Unity; Engage Groups; and Ask for Help. Wayne Magee is on a mission to empower those who have been repeatedly told, "You can't!" He has spent his life overcoming obstacles and negative labels intended to convince him that he could not lead a purposeful, fulfilled life. T.O.U.G.H Blows: A Lifelong Journey of Defying the Odds, takes readers on a miraculous expedition of Wayne's determination to overcome one tough blow after the next. At birth, he was diagnosed with cleidocranial dysplasia (CCD), which is a rare genetic skeletal disorder that affects one in one million people. As such, Wayne does not have a collarbone, teeth, and his skull development and facial growth appears larger than normal. Countless medical professionals stated that he would not live beyond two years old. With each triumphant year, doctors advised his mother that he would not fully develop physically or mentally and ultimately fail at everyday life situations. Wayne's faith in God showed him early on that failure was not an option. Wayne's story demonstrates that for every tough blow, we have an innate ability to overcome societal and medical challenges.
