Million Times, Yes
The only way an alpha billionaire can hold on to the perfect woman is to keep his identity a secret in an emotional and blisteringly hot romance by USA Today bestselling author Marni Mann.
Maya and Jordan can't keep their eyes off one another. They see each other on their daily runs, exchanging heated glances and lingering smiles as part of their routine. What's not to notice? Maya with her perfect body and teasing smile. Jordan, a former professional hockey player, with his chiseled muscles and undeniable alpha personality. First comes the hello, then a kiss, followed by an uninhibited desire that sets their mornings on fire.
Jordan normally doesn't date, but this Boston nurse is a beauty he wants to know inside and out. She's gorgeous, sassy, and keeps him on his toes. He's falling fast. She is too. There's just one problem: Maya loathes the rich. She has her reasons. She also has no idea that Jordan is actually a billionaire CEO who owns the most expensive penthouse in the city, a collection of exotic cars, and half of Boston.
The only way for this grumpy alphahole to hold on to Maya is to keep his secret hidden. Because once the truth is out, everything about this addictive, sensuous, once-in-a-lifetime connection will come crashing down.

Thriving: The Breakthrough Movement to Regenerate Nature, Society, and the Economy
An innovation agenda for turning our biggest global societal challenges into opportunities to thrive
The future will be better than you think. Thriving shows how innovation can regenerate nature, society, and the economy by taking us from degradation to restoration of ecosystems, from depletion to renewal of resources, from disparity to responsibility in communities, from disease to revitalization of health, from disconnection to rewiring through technology, and from disruption to resilience of infrastructure and institutions.
Thriving strives to:
- Inform about why change is necessary and how it happens in society, as well as counter prevailing despair and pessimism about the state of the world with hope and optimism
- Inspire with what change is possible and where it is already happening, showing how we can go from problems of breakdown to breakthrough solutions
- Impel by creating a desire to turn information and inspiration into action, adding momentum to the growing regeneration movement
Thriving is not an exercise in blind optimism about technology or other miracle-cure solutions; rather, it is an accessible approach to systems thinking and an offer of pragmatic hope based on purpose-driven creativity and innovation. Whether you're a progressive leader, a professional in the sustainability field, or someone who simply wants to be better informed about ways to take positive action, this thorough guide is for you.

Discount Dan: A LitRPG Adventure
Noclip In, No Way Out...All Dan wants is to find a way home. He'd settle for a beer, a bite to eat, and a place to sleep off his hangover.
Dan has accidentally "Noclipped" into the Backrooms-a bizarro, extra-dimensional Alice-in-Wonderland world, overrun with horrific nightmare creatures known as the Dwellers. No one ever gets out. Hell, forget about leaving, if Dan wants to survive the week, he's going to need to harness the strange game-like magic of the Backrooms, make some very sketchy allies, and carve out a little safe haven to call his own. And he's going to need to do it fast because Dan is being hunted. The Flayed Monarch of the 999th floor has marked him for death and no one walks away from the Skinless Court with their hide intact... "The book is a f***ing delight. I enjoyed the absolute hell out of it and think it's an excellent use of pop culture to make something fun and horrific and awesome." - Eric Ugland, Author of the Good Guys and Bad Guys "Buckle up, buttercup! James Hunter takes you on a balls-to-the-wall adventure that's as insane as it is awesome." - Jez Cajiao, Author of Arise and Rise of Mankind
But, in an endless, ever-changing dungeon cobbled together from twisted carnivals, abandoned shopping malls, janky laundromats, and condemned insane asylums, getting a bit of shut-eye is harder than it sounds. -

Modern Peru: A New History
Modern Peru: A New History offers a sweeping account of Peru's history from the wars of independence to the present day. Delving into a past characterized by instability and a series of interrupted national projects, the contributors examine the legacies of Tupac Amaru's 1780s rebellion and the intense ideological debates between conservatives and liberals about the newly independent nation. They analyze the mid-nineteenth-century guano state, the catastrophic defeat in the War of the Pacific, and the establishment of an exclusionary oligarchic state--the "Aristocratic Republic"--based on a diverse export economy. Outlining Peru's twentieth-century transition from a rural, agrarian society to a primarily urban one, the contributors explore the 1968 coup and its unfulfilled promise of top-down social transformation, which was followed by years of democratic rule marked by internal armed conflict and economic mismanagement. This period culminated in the authoritarian neoliberal revolution of Alberto Fujimori, whose economic and political legacies in the new century resulted in a booming economy, now in abeyance, and a deeply dysfunctional democracy. Accessible and wide-ranging, Modern Peru provides a singularly panoramic perspective on Peru's history. Contributors. Eduardo Dargent, Paulo Drinot, Cynthia McClintock, José Luis Rénique, Natalia Sobrevilla Perea, Alberto Vergara, Charles Walker -
Indigenomicon: American Indians, Video Games, and the Structures of Dispossession
Settler colonial studies and Indigenous studies are often assumed to be the same intellectual project. In Indigenomicon, Jodi A. Byrd examines the differences between the two fields by bringing video game studies and Indigenous studies into conversation with Black studies, queer studies, and Indigenous feminist critique. Byrd theorizes "the image of the law of the Indigenous" as structuring dispossession in games including Assassin's Creed, Animal Crossing, BioShock Infinite, and Demon Souls. They demonstrate how games and play might reveal histories of slavery, genocide, and theft of Indigenous lands even as their structures obscure Indigenous spatial and embodied practices that prioritize relationships with land, water, plants, and spirits. With ground and relationality defined as key concepts, Byrd centers Indigenous visions of dystopias to reveal how game spaces encode settler structures of governance even as the design of games might yet provide vital modes of resistance to Indigenous erasure. -
