~ Jennifer ~ From a very young age, I learned one lesson very well. Do as I’m told, and do not complain. The consequences are far too severe. But Fate is ruthless and isn’t on my side. I always knew my uncle hated me, but I didn’t know it was enough to sell me to the Devil himself in order to pay off his gambling debts. Jason Delavanté. He’s sinfully hot, alluring as sin, and as evil as Satan himself. He runs the most dangerous and powerful mafia Las Vegas has ever seen. And now he owns me… ~ Jason ~ When I first saw Jennifer, I fell for her. Hard and fast. She’s beautiful. Sweet. Everything I never knew I wanted. I’ll go to any lengths necessary to have her. Little did I know that decision would bring complications I never saw coming. Specifically, when I find out who her uncle is and realize he’s in a lot of debt… …to me. I wouldn’t be half the vindictive leader I am if I didn’t have a plan. But with it comes lies, betrayal, and secrets that I’m not sure Jennifer will ever forgive me for…

Drawing on Kant, Rousseau, and Habermas, Stilz argues that we owe civic obligations to the state if it is sufficiently just, and that constitutionally enshrined principles of justice in themselves are grounds for obedience to our particular state and for democratic solidarity with our fellow citizens.

C. Stephen Evans defends the claim that moral obligations are best understood as divine commands or requirements; hence an important part of morality depends on God. God's requirements are communicated in a variety of ways, including conscience, and that natural law ethics and virtue ethics provide complementary perspectives to this view.

This book examines the question of what parental obligations procreators incur by bringing children into being. Prusak argues that parents, as procreators, have obligations regarding future children that constrain the liberty of would-be parents to do as they wish. Moreover, these obligations go beyond simply respecting a child’s rights. He addresses in turn the ethics of adoption, child support, gamete donation, surrogacy, prenatal genetic enhancement, and public responsibility for children.
