She is already planning on expansion, but then she is a workaholic, as her best friend and chief employee Donna often says.

Life can get complicated when you catch the eye of a billionaire. What can a man like him possibly want with her, a mere small business woman? She is not bad-looking at all, but still, a man like him could have his pick of any woman in the world. Falling for him in return is not exactly a part of Victoria’s business model either. Victoria soon finds herself up on the wrong side of a new mob boss, which is another complication! So when she has a romantic interest from a billionaire and violent interest from a mob boss it makes for too many complications. Anything can happen, and probably will, but can her charm survive it?

Over the years, the company grows into a multi-billion company. Allie loves working for Mr. Jones. Then one day, he announces his retirement. Allie meets her new boss, John Jones, son of Mr. Jones and heir to Jones Corp. John is rude, disrespectful, and most off all, has it in for Allie.

But is this the true side of John? Does John feel the same about Allie or is he just stringing her along? Allie starts to question herself when a girl from John's past returns. Thrill - Alpha Billionaire Romance This was becoming a bad habit; going to the same bar after work, sitting by herself with her dirty martini. It was getting to the point where the bartender would have her drink ready before she even took off her coat. It wasn’t like she was an unattractive woman or anything; men just seemed to be avoiding her these days. Maybe they could sense her glumness. So it was the strangest thing when he walked in on that regular, dull night. He didn’t look like he belonged there, in that rundown bar in his fine black suit and tie. Mia’s eyebrow shot up immediately when he walked in, and watched him as he deliberately scanned the room. Maybe this rich boy’s car broke down and he needed a phone or something. Whatever the case was, Mia knew the instant her eyes met his hazel ones, she was in trouble. Wrong in the Right Way - Billionaire Stepbrother Romance Michelle didn’t know what it was about Jackson but she had always gravitated to him like a moth to a flame. When they were growing up, he would take her hand and drag her away to some crazy adventure and honestly she cherished every moment.

However, Michelle’s wish to reconnect with her stepbrother was granted with a birthday invitation in the mail.

Michelle couldn’t conceal her excitement to see him again and have a relaxing weekend in the sun as a bonus. Little did she know this birthday bash weekend would be filled with drama, jealousy and an epiphany as Michelle realizes her true feelings for Jackson.

During the 1960s, a bushel of B-movies were produced and aimed at the predominantly teenage drive-in movie audience. At first teens couldn't get enough of the bikini-clad beauties dancing on the beach or being wooed by Elvis Presley, but by 1966 young audiences became more interested in the mini-skirted, go-go boot wearing, independent-minded gals of spy spoofs, hot rod movies and biker flicks. Profiled herein are fifty sexy, young actresses that teenage girls envied and teenage boys desired including Quinn O'Hara, Melody Patterson, Hilarie Thompson, Donna Loren, Pat Priest, Meredith MacRae, Arlene Martel, Cynthia Pepper, and Beverly Washburn. Some like Sue Ane Langdon, Juliet Prowse, Marlyn Mason, and Carole Wells, appeared in major studio productions while others, such as Regina Carrol, Susan Hart, Angelique Pettyjohn and Suzie Kaye were relegated to drive-in movies only. Each biography contains a complete filmography. Some also include the actresses' candid comments and anecdotes about their films, the people they worked with, and their feelings about acting. A list of web sites that provide further information is also included.

Have you ever been made to feel like the bad guy? Dr. bird has too. In this brief memoir, they reveal secrets about their life that they have kept hidden for over thirty years regarding compulsory heterosexuality, repressed/unexplored queernesses, and the late in life realization that -- turns out -- they're #actuallyautistic! Retold from their 33-year-old Dr. bird’s eye view, these extensively brave disclosures add one whole lifetime of flesh onto the U.S. body politic. This timely manuscript illuminates, historicizes, and contextualizes the f***ing fact that autism is not “just a trend” taking off just on TikTok recently, but that there are massive neuroqueer self-realizations happening worldwide in the algorithmic envirusment age. Dr. bird’s writing puts the “cut-the-shit” into “slice-of-life,” providing deep and raw disclosures of lifelong confusion, gaslighting, and struggles with family ostracization, friendship loss, vulnerability, sexual violence, and substance abuse. After extensive sharing, it’s time to grieve. They usher in a eulogy for their lifetimes that once were, by diagnosing how foundational U.S. ideas did and continue to dehumanize, sicken, disable, and deaden us. Then, they preach to the global choir about the single most connected time in history. Dr. bird has a lot more puns and trauma than answers, but in the end, recommends some liberatory antibodies for moving forward, far less miserably.
