Guarding her heart might take him on the ultimate one last ride to love. Kiki All I want is a simple life - finish school, teach yoga, and figure out what I want to do after graduation. But my dreams are shattered when a relentless stalker targets me and won’t take no for an answer. My older brothers send Hawk—a big, inked-up, MC Club guy—to babysit me in my tiny apartment. I don't need or want his protection, but he refuses to budge. The more time we spend together, the safer I feel. Until I fall for him and put both of us in danger. Hawk I never thought I'd find myself in a yoga class, let alone babysitting my MC brothers’ little sister. But when my brothers ask for a favor, I can’t say no. Now I’m wondering how to keep my hands off the curvy brunette when I’m supposed to follow her everywhere. All I know is that I'll do whatever it takes to keep her safe, even if it means I might be taking my last ride as a member of the Lonestar Riders MC. The men of the Lonestar Riders MC might be wild and rough around the edges, but their hearts will be tamed when they meet the curvy girl of their dreams. Each book features one couple, is a complete story, and can be read alone.

This is the story of an illustrious Romanian-born, Hungarian-speaking, Vienna-schooled, Columbia-educated and Harvard-formed, middle-class Jewish professor of politics and other subjects. Markovits revels in a rootlessness that offers him comfort, succor, and the inspiration for his life’s work. As we follow his quest to find a home, we encounter his engagement with the important political, social, and cultural developments of five decades on two continents. We also learn about his musical preferences, from classical to rock; his love of team sports such as soccer, baseball, basketball, and American football; and his devotion to dogs and their rescue. Above all, the book analyzes the travails of emigration the author experienced twice, moving from Romania to Vienna and then from Vienna to New York. Markovits’s Candide-like travels through the ups and downs of post-1945 Europe and America offer a panoramic view of key currents that shaped the second half of the twentieth century. By shedding light on the cultural similarities and differences between both continents, the book shows why America fascinated Europeans like Markovits and offered them a home that Europe never did: academic excellence, intellectual openness, cultural diversity and religious tolerance. America for Markovits was indeed the “beacon on the hill,” despite the ugliness of its racism, the prominence of its everyday bigotry, the severity of its growing economic inequality, and the presence of other aspects that mar this worthy experiment’s daily existence.

This volume contains contributions by friends, colleagues and associates of John R Klauder on the occasion of his 60th birthday.Klauder's scientific work embraces vast territories from quantum theories to general relativity, optics and chaotic dynamics. A recurrent theme in his research is the role played by coherent states, in particular, in connection with path integral formulations of quantization. Perhaps at a less lofty level, this concept has had at least two spectacular applications: as a powerful investigative tool in quantum optics and as a precursor to wavelets. In a different vein, Klauder also attacked specific, non-renormalizable but exactly soluble, hard-core models in field theory, where he uncovered what has since been called the Klauder phenomenon.The contributors to this volume represent the special brand of mathematicians and physicists John Klauder helped define throughout his seminal career in the industrial and academic worlds.
