Flynn You know that voice in the back of your head telling you not to do something? Well, I don't have one, at least not one that functions properly. Mine eggs me on, daring me to do my worst. Which is how I've found myself in my current situation-on the verge of being traded from my team. Coach gave me one last chance to prove myself, so I begged my agent, Nadia, to help me out. Nadia When I suggested Flynn find a woman to "fake date" as a solution to his image problem, I never imagined he'd want me to fill that position. As his agent, I already had my hands full trying to keep him in line. But when he made an offer too good to refuse, I found myself accepting. Now I'm committed to spending two months in the bad boy of football's company. His very attentive company. He smells like sin and looks like every woman's fantasy come to life. How many stolen touches can I endure before I'm begging for more? I'm supposed to be changing the player, not falling for him. Author's Note: This is a full-length, swoony, heartfelt, standalone sports romance. HEA. Opposites attract. Friends-to-lovers. Slow burn. Fake relationship. Age Gap. Laugh-out-loud banter, a troublemaker hero, and a strong heroine.

In recent decades, what could be considered a gamification of the world has occurred, as the ties between games and activism, games and war, and games and the city grow ever stronger. In this book, Anne-Marie Schleiner explores a concept she calls 'ludic mutation', a transformative process in which the player, who is expected to engage in the preprogramed interactions of the game and accept its imposed subjective constraints, seizes back some of the power otherwise lost to the game itself. Crucially, this power grab is also relevant beyond the game because players then see the external world as material to be reconfigured, an approach with important ramifications for everything from social activism to contemporary warfare.

The pace of work being what it is, the last thing managers or team members need is to spend time and energy on work place drama that isn't at all related to the work. Not dealing effectively with non-team player behavior is one of the most common complaints employees have about managers. This fact was first presented in Dr. Grow's How to Not Suck as a Manager. Digging deeper into this topic, Change or Go: How to Stop Non-Team Player Behavior at Work, provides managers with a straightforward strategy for working with team members who are not being team players. The goal is to create the most cohesive, efficient, and effective team possible. Change or Go gives managers and prospective managers the steps, counsel, and encouragement needed to make this happen.

'Game-changing. Katy Milkman shows in this book that we can all be a super human' Angela Duckworth, bestselling author of Grit How to Change is a powerful, groundbreaking blueprint to help you - and anyone you manage, teach or coach - to achieve personal and professional goals, from the master of human nature and behaviour change and Choiceology podcast host Professor Katy Milkman. Award-winning Wharton Professor Katy Milkman has devoted her career to the study of behaviour change. An engineer by training, she approaches all challenges as problems to be solved and, with this mind-set, has drilled into the roadblocks that prevent us from achieving our goals and breaking unwanted behaviours. The key to lasting change, she argues, is not to set ever more audacious goals or to foster good habits but to get your strategy right. In How to Change Milkman identifies seven human impulses, or 'problems', that commonly sabotage our attempts to make positive personal and professional change. Then, crucially, instead of getting you to do battle with these impulses she shows you how to harness them and use these as driving forces to help instil new, positive behaviours - better, faster and more efficiently than you could imagine. Drawing her own original research, countless engaging case studies and practical tools throughout to help you put her ideas into action, Milkman reveals a proven, inspiring path that can take you - once and for all - from where you are today to where you want to be.
