Skystone Canyon by Diane J. Reed Pdf

He’s the toughest cowboy on patrol fighting darkness—until a rare woman reminds him of the light inside his heart… The line between justice and vengeance is thin for Barrett Iron Feather, yet despite his anger management issues, he’s the most respected lawman in Bandits Hollow. Then his world turns upside down when the police chief goes behind his back and makes him head of security—aka, “the babysitter”—for a Hollywood actress and her crew filming a western in their picturesque town. Barrett’s initially furious at the assignment, until duty forces him to run smack-dab into his boyhood crush, former child star Lainey Neil. All grown up now, Lainey’s no longer the chubby teen driven by her abusive father to attend “fat camp” at a Colorado horse ranch. She’s a beautiful film star, and she’s shocked to come face to face with Barrett, that unforgettable cowboy who taught her the grit she needed to survive her hellish childhood. But when Lainey’s life is put in danger on the set, only destiny knows if her first love will prove to be her lasting hero, and whether Hollywood happy endings have any hope of becoming real. Skystone Canyon is Book 2 in the Iron Feather Brothers contemporary western romance series. Iron Feather Brothers Series: Meet the Iron Feather brothers—they’re tough, they’re dangerous, and family means everything to them. Whether it’s living up to their ancestor’s outlaw reputation or brandishing their own style of justice, these men have each other’s backs. And it takes very special women to get under their skin and untangle their barbed-wire hearts in order to find love in this contemporary western romance series set in the Rocky Mountains.

Arts Programming for the Anthropocene by Bill Gilbert,Anicca Cox Pdf

Arts Programming for the Anthropocene argues for a role for the arts as an engaged, professional practice in contemporary culture, charting the evolution of arts over the previous half century from a primarily solitary practice involved with its own internal dialogue to one actively seeking a larger discourse. The chapters investigate the origin and evolution of five academic field programs on three continents, mapping developments in field pedagogy in the arts over the past twenty years. Drawing upon the collective experience of artists and academicians in the United States, Australia, and Greece operating in a wide range of social and environmental contexts, it makes the case for the necessity of an update to ensure the real world relevance and applicability of tertiary arts education. Based on thirty years of experimentation in arts pedagogy, including the creation of the Land Arts of the American West (LAAW) program and Art and Ecology discipline at the University of New Mexico, this book is written for arts practitioners, aspiring artists, art educators, and those interested in how the arts can contribute to strengthening cultural resiliency in the face of rapid environmental change.
