Book Description

When a one night stand doesn’t really stay a one night stand, a woman can only resist the man of her dreams so much. I’ve always been the good girl. You know the type. The one who never got in trouble, unlike both of my brothers. But after a very public break-up, I’m ready to walk on the wild side and have my first one night stand. And I find the perfect candidate. A man she never plans on seeing again. Until we come face to face a few days later at her new job site. But that’s okay, I can handle it, and handle the sexy former Army Ranger named Alek. No, wait, I’m not going to handle him. I’ll deal with the situation like an adult. Okay, that’s a lie. Or maybe not. Do adults agree to a short fling knowing that said adult is already half-way in love with a man? Well, that’s what I did. But, I have a feeling that he’s right there with me. And as he spends his time showing me the real Hawaii, we both realize that our hearts are totally involved. Soon, tongues are wagging about our affair and someone from my past decides to make my life a living hell. With our relationship now fodder for the tabloids, I assume he’ll walk away. One thing you need to know about this story: I’ve never been so wrong about so many things, especially Alek. Warning: This story includes a good woman with naughty thoughts, a hero who wants to help her live out those fantasies, a meddling family–on both sides, and a trip back to the islands. This is another Harmless story, so you know the drill. Ice water is recommended and the author takes no responsibility for overheating readers.

Book Description

To prove her love and save her man, she has to go above and beyond the call of duty. Francis McKade is a man in lust. He’s had a crush on his best friend’s little sister for years. There’s the Bro code. Plus, being a SEAL doesn’t always work with relationships. So he’s avoided her until one little wedding dance opens his eyes. When he’s called away the next morning, he promises to come back to her. Shannon knows she loves Kade, but when he doesn’t contact her after the mission, she’s confused. That is until her brother drags Kade into Shannon’s bar and grill. This is not the man who seduced her. He’s darker and a little more dangerous. When he pushes her to her limits in the bedroom, Shannon refuses to back down. One way or another, this military man is going to learn there is no walking away from love—not while she still has breath in her body. Warning: This book contains two infatuated lovers, a hardheaded military man, a determined woman, some old friends, and a little taste of New Orleans. As always, ice water is suggested while reading. It might be the first military Harmless book, but the only thing that has changed is how hot our hero looks in his uniform—not to mention out of it.

Book Description

This book was originally released as A Little Harmless Faith. It has been expanded to include a new epilogue. Jensen Wulf is a man who has everything he could want. Money, power, and more women than he can remember. Unfortunately, the one woman he needs is the one woman who is off limits. Nicola McCann is his personal assistant and practically runs his entire family business. Any entanglement with her would be a major mistake. He does his best to ignore his need for her, until he realizes that her needs match his own. Once he confronts her, he proposes a fling, just while they are working on Oahu. He assumes he will be able to work her out of his system by the end of their time on Oahu. That agreement doesn't keep either of them from falling in love even though neither of them will admit it. When someone starts taking potshots at Wulf Industries and Nicola gets caught in the crossfire, both of them quickly learn there are worse things than admitting you are in love. Warning: This book contains two hard-headed lovers, many nasty quips, uncovered secrets, Hawaiian scenery, a trip to Rough 'n Ready, and scenes so hot you might need an ice cold shower when you are done.

Book Description

This volume highlights the complex relations between empathy, individualizing and groupish moral intuitions, (anticipated) moral emotions, and moral judgment. It is rooted in the notion that human moral systems were not immune to evolutionary processes and thus shaped by biological and cultural evolutionary forces (e.g. natural selection, genetic drift, mutation, sexual selection, cultural mutation, ecological selection pressures, etc.). This edition proposes a conceptual model of both distal and proximal variables to integrate insights from Moral Foundations Theory with theorizing on commitment strategies by linking empathy and moral intuitions to moral emotions (guilt, anger, disgust), and moral judgment in the context of distinct moral violations. The proposed model is tested using data from a convenience sample of young adults in Belgium, who responded to written hypothetical scenarios in a large-scale online survey. This volume is ideal for moral theory researchers in criminology, psychology, and related disciplines

Book Description

"An intelligent book that struggles honestly with important questions: Is the net turning us into passive knowers? Is it degrading our ability to reason? What can we do about this?" —David Weinberger, Los Angeles Review of Books We used to say "seeing is believing"; now, googling is believing. With 24/7 access to nearly all of the world’s information at our fingertips, we no longer trek to the library or the encyclopedia shelf in search of answers. We just open our browsers, type in a few keywords and wait for the information to come to us. Now firmly established as a pioneering work of modern philosophy, The Internet of Us has helped revolutionize our understanding of what it means to be human in the digital age. Indeed, demonstrating that knowledge based on reason plays an essential role in society and that there is more to “knowing” than just acquiring information, leading philosopher Michael P. Lynch shows how our digital way of life makes us value some ways of processing information over others, and thus risks distorting the greatest traits of mankind. Charting a path from Plato’s cave to Google Glass, the result is a necessary guide on how to navigate the philosophical quagmire that is the "Internet of Things."
