Public Defender Autry Holton is stuck both professionally and personally. If she refuses to defend the accused serial killer that tormented her town, she could be fired, not to mention disbarred. The whole town is ready to shun her if she does her job, not to mention she doesn’t really want to see the man walk free. Then there’s the fact the man she’s been seeing has gotten cold feet, and that’s before she managed to tell him she’s pregnant... Sheriff Stanton Reed knows he’s not the right man for Autry.

But after an attempted break-in at Autry’s home shows the real danger she’s in, all he can think of is protecting her and keeping her close.

In this powerful and moving novel, Myriam Warner-Vieyra sensitively portrays the complexities of cross-cultural relationships and, in particular, the female predicament. When Helene, a self-reliant career woman, is packing her belongings for a move and imminent marriage for which she is reluctant, she unearths a faded old book. It is the diary of young Juletane, a confused, sheltered West Indian woman struggling to find herself. Written over three weeks, it records her short life: childhood in France, marriage to an African student, and an eager return with him to Africa, the land of her ancestors. It is Juletane’s diary that brings her and Helene together. Juletane does not fit into her husband’s traditional African family, especially the Muslim cultural demands of polygamy. Full of gentle ironies, Juletane is a story about alienation, madness, shattered dreams: the disillusioned West Indian outsider’s disenchantment with Africa. Myriam Warner-Vieyra looks at women’s lives, at the paths they have taken, at the possibilities open to women in the Caribbean, in Africa, in life. She forces readers, through the double narrative of Juletane and Helene, to reexamine easy assumptions, to look again at safe generalizations. Includes valuable Introduction 2014 by the translator.

Do you make things happen?! Are you an authentic leader? Are you able to define your personal brand? How do you live out your personal brand each day? Life experiences combined with your own interpersonal traits, collectively emote a personal brand - something nebulous yet completely understandable. A concept that when understood, is powerful in both personal and professional endeavors. Hence the purpose of this book. The book chapters depict many life lessons, words of advice and a few stories that tie directly to a personal brand model - the Live It Out (LIO) model. Key messages within the book link to one of the cornerstone focus areas within the model including Self, Faith, Community, Family, Work/Career, and Outside Influences. As you progress through the book, take time to reflect on areas of your life that are going well and alternatively, those areas that require improvement. My objective is that you develop a better understanding of what constitutes your personal brand and how that brand strengthens or weakens based on life decisions made over time. Enjoy!!

LACHLAN Weddings are supposed to be fun—glamorous...aren't they? I'm not so sure anymore. Because the second my best friend Drew tapped me to Best Man at his own NYC nuptials, I realized that I was in for one hell of a ride. Especially when it becomes clear that his younger, can't-stay-out-of-trouble sister Sabrina will be the Maid of Honor and I will have to keep my usually-busy hands off of her. Mostly, because she's my best friend's little sister. But more because she deserves better than a guy like me—a family screw-up with more secrets than good intentions. I am sure of one thing, though: I owe Drew for saving me from a lifetime of mistakes. It just didn't occur to me that Drew might have his own mistakes, too. Dangerous ones that push me closer to that sharp-tongued Sabrina... And closer to a ticking time bomb I never saw coming.
