Overnight Sensation by Sarina Bowen Pdf

Everyone knows the girl is off limits. But it's so good to be bad. There’s this girl... Heidi and I have been trading hungry looks all year, and everything she does makes me smile. But I don't do girlfriends, and I certainly can't get involved with the league commissioner's daughter. I need shots on goal, not a hookup and a widely misunderstood paparazzi photo. Can I resist her, though? The way she teases me should be a game penalty for interference with my libido. There’s this guy… Jason wants me, but he won’t admit it. That man looks at me the way a hockey player eyes the lunch buffet after practice—and I love it. But when victory is finally within my grasp, I blow it and humiliate myself. Even then I can’t even avoid him—as the team intern, I’m in constant view of his hard body and cocky smile. I need another chance. Jason Castro is about to learn the true meaning of an overnight sensation. "Sarina Bowen's hockey heroes feed my heart and soul! Delicious, emotional and wildly sexy!"

An Overnight Sensation by Robert Westbrook Pdf

Author of the Howard Moon Deer Mysteries “A brilliant, engaging and wholly unpredictable story of courage, survival and self-reinvention . . . I was completely taken by it . . .Interesting, complicated and wholly engaging characters. [Westbrook] is obviously a born storyteller and a bit of a magician.”–Ally Sheedy TORCH SINGER is an epic drama of Hollywood in its Golden Age: the rise and fall of Sonya Saint-Amant, a singer who schemes her way to fame and riches, breaking all the rules. An Overnight Sensation, Book One, starts in 1956 with a scandalous love nest murder, then rewinds to Sonya at the age of 17 in 1940, a dreamy girl in the Royal Box of the Krakow Opera. When Sonya’s mother is hanged by the Nazis, she must grow up quickly. Using her wits and beauty, Sonya escapes Poland with the help of partisan fighters and makes her way to London during the Blitz. In 1943, she finagles a passage to America on the Mauretania, a dangerous North Atlantic crossing on a troop ship full of men. As the ship steams north into Arctic waters evading enemy submarines, Sonya almost wins at a high-stakes game of love . . . only to arrive in New York alone and desperate, determined to outwit fortune and become a star. An Overnight Sensation is a dark comedy of manners: a tale of murder, blackmail, fortune-hunters and dreamers, and the price paid for living large.

The Torch Singer, Book One: An Overnight Sensation by Robert Westbrook Pdf

“Robert Westbrook’s novel strips the gilt off the Hollywood Golden Age to reveal the seamier underside. The Torch Singer begins with an ending, a scene of murder and mayhem on St. Valentine’s Night in 1956 Beverly Hills and unravels the many and various threads of the lives and careers that took them there.” Time Out The Torch Singer is a sweeping historical saga that takes the reader from the horrors of Nazi-occupied Poland to the glittery excesses of Hollywood in the 1940’s and 50’s: the rise and fall of Sonya Saint-Amant, a singer who schemes her way to fame and glory breaking all the rules. Book One, An Overnight Sensation, charts the rise of Sonya from the age of 17 in 1940, a girl dreaming of being an understudy at the Krakow Opera when Nazis raid the theater. After witnessing the summary execution of her mother by German soldiers she escapes Poland and makes her way to London. Using guile and beauty, she finds passage to America in 1943 on the Mauretania, a dangerous North Atlantic crossing on a troop ship full of men. As the ship steams north into Arctic waters evading enemy submarines, Sonya almost wins at a high-stakes game of love . . . only to arrive in New York alone and desperate but determined to become a star. “A masterpiece of storytelling. A book of constant intrigue which from the outset creates that delicious paradox of it being immediately clear that nothing is ever quite as it seems.” Daily Mail “Robert Westbrook is a born storyteller and a bit of a magician.” Ally Sheedy The Torch Singer is an unforgettable journey through the shadowlands of fame.

Overnight Sensation by Richard Tyler Jordan Pdf

“Tyler stirs up an intoxicating cocktail composed of equal parts delicious name-dropping gossip, venomous Hollywood satire and steamy boy-meets-boy action." — Publishers Weekly Prepare to plunge headfirst into the tumultuous, high-stakes world of Bart Caine, a battle-scarred publicist at Sterling Studios, the glittering epicenter of Hollywood’s family entertainment empire. Bart’s workplace is a breeding ground for arrogance and ego, where insufferable celebrities clash with monstrous movie studio executives. At the center of this maelstrom of power and ambition is his vicious boss, Stephanie Hough—a woman hell-bent on power and destroying Bart’s career. But in Sin City, the spotlight doesn’t shine solely on Bart. Enter Paco Castillo, a fiery Hispanic hustler whose dreams of a screenwriting career have been ruthlessly shattered by a nefarious and predatory showbiz agent. In this cutthroat industry where ambition drives every move and alliance, Paco wields his talents for manipulation like a weapon—especially in the bedroom, where his incendiary skills adapt effortlessly to intimate encounters with women and men equally. Exploiting his ability to captivate and control virtually anyone with his charm and sex appeal, he perceives Bart as his passport to the golden gates of the movie studios. However, a chance meeting with TV’s quintessentially all-American and wholesome sitcom dad, Peter Jacks, offers an even more cunning and lucrative opportunity. The question isn’t whether Paco is willing to go the distance; it’s just how far he’ll push the boundaries—because, as it turns out, there are no limits in Hollywood. As these showbiz mavericks set the stage for a revenge-fueled showdown against Stephanie and the ruthless entertainment industry, they inadvertently unearth a revelation with the potential for seismic reverberations throughout Hollywood. In a world where hidden agendas and scandalous secrets hold sway, Bart and Paco find themselves ensnared in career-defining battles. As they swim the treacherous waters teeming with opportunistic sharks hungry for blood, they discover just how murky the depths of Tinseltown can truly be.

The World on Time by James C. Wetherbe Pdf

In The World On Time, Wetherbe investigates the 11 management principles that made FedEx an overnight sensation. Through practical tips and insights, this enlightening book will inspire entrepreneurs to invent new and innovative ways to motivate their employees as well as their customers. How did FedEx do it, and how do they keep doing it? Wetherbe cites how FedEx created an intricate incentives program designed to discourage erratic performances. Instead of having regular employee performance reviews, random rewards are given throughout the year to recognize outstanding contributions to the company. The result? Employees are kept motivated and satisfied through continual reinforcement: FedEx doesn't see improvement just around review time, FedEx sees top-quality work all the time. How does an international company like FedEx adapt to other cultures around the world? In the Middle East, for example, FedEx maintains prayer rooms where Muslims may carry out their religious obligations. FedEx realized it could not impose the practices of its native culture, so it redesigned its strategies to complement other cultures in which it operates. The benefits? FedEx is now enjoying substantial growth in both Europe and Asia.

The Spirits Up by Todd Babiak Pdf

Warm, witty, and unsettling all at once, here is an unforgettable story of a family desperate for something to believe in. Benedict is an inventor whose life’s work is a clean energy machine. It has just made him an overnight sensation and his family is suddenly wealthy. Benedict’s wife, Karen, and his teenage daughters, Charlotte and Poppy, are proud of him. But there are problems Benedict is too busy to see: Karen is deeply unhappy in the marriage and contemplating an affair, Charlotte, who is dealing with a chronic illness, is growing more and more distant, and Poppy is cracking under the pressures of her social circle. And there’s another problem. Benedict holds a rather terrible secret about his clean energy machine. Then, on Halloween night, an accident threatens to make everything far worse for the family. The accident kicks off a series of hauntings in their beautiful, historic home in affluent Belgravia, and the ghosts make it clear that they want something from them. Karen has to save her daughters — and herself. Meanwhile, Benedict is consumed by the knowledge that he has to achieve the impossible by Christmas. As time ticks ever closer to the revelation of his secret, he spirals further into despair . . . The Spirits Up is the story of a family haunted by the charmlessness of middle age and the cruelties of modern teenage life. Part social satire and part contemporary ghost story (with a hint of Dickens’s A Christmas Carol), it is an exploration of a timeless question: what happens when there’s nothing to believe?
