Playing Dirty
Our rivalry formed long before we became siblings.
Madden Hastings has been my nemesis since the day we met.
A divide was born from the age-old rivalry between our universities,
but this year, another layer developed. It became personal.
Because the captain of Blackmore's baseball team?
He's also my new step brother.
My disdain for the sudden blending of our families leads to more conflict,
and despite their efforts to force us together, coexisting proves impossible.
But something else starts burning beneath my bitterness and resentment;
an attraction as unexpected as it is potent.
And when the chemistry becomes too powerful to deny,
our already complicated relationship gets even messier.
Because a forbidden fling is one thing, but falling for the enemy?
It forces me into a choice I never wanted to make.
One between loyalty to my team, or the love of my life.
*Playing Dirty is the fourth in a five book standalone college sports romance series featuring two rivalry-fueled step brothers, a cut-throat game of capture the flag, and sexual tension that oozes off the page. Not suitable for anyone under 18 years of age.*

Thoughtload: Manage the Madness and Free Your Team to Do Great Work
Thoughtload--not workload--is the culprit causing chaos for your team. Be the leader that creates clarity, calm, and greater capacity.
In Thoughtload, New York Times bestselling author and team effectiveness advisor Liane Davey tackles today's most pressing management challenges: over-burdened systems, burned-out teams, and declining results. However, contrary to conventional wisdom, Davey argues that the problem is not with out-sized workloads. The root cause of the madness sapping productivity in today's offices is with our excessive thoughtload. Thoughtload is the cumulative and often overwhelming burden of increasing cognitive and emotional demands, worsened by decreasing physical and mental energy. In this brilliant, highly prescriptive guide, Davey lays out the steps for reducing thoughtload, so that you and your team feel more focused--and get more done. The process starts with you. By learning to better manage your attention, you create periods of deep concentration that lead to the outcomes you strive for, and a sense of accomplishment. By processing emotions triggered in the workplace and at home, you gain greater control of your mood and productivity. And by making informed choices about where your energy comes from (and where it goes), you connect with reliable and renewable resources that fuel you to do the things that matter most. Davey then gives you powerful tools you can use as a leader to coach your team members to manage thoughtload for themselves. Doing so, you and your team will feel more focused, less burnt out, and finally free to do more great work. Backed by science and written with the time- and energy-strapped manager in mind, Thoughtload is Liane Davey's potent handbook for a better way to lead. Apply the strategies in this book to create calm within the chaos--so you and your team can perform, produce, and prosper. -

Viking Tattoos: Nordic and Norse Pagan Symbols of Spirituality
In recent decades popular culture has rediscovered the Viking Age and North Germanic Paganism with fresh eyes. From the pirates and sea raiders known as Vikings, to the fierce warriors called Berserkers, and the wider Norse or Nordic people as a whole, symbols played an important role in daily life and spirituality. Today we find these symbols visually eye catching and their meanings fascinating.
People all over the world are finding meaning in these symbols that resonate with their personality, identity, and spiritual beliefs. They are a representation of a thought or an idea, from a single line to an ever increasingly complex symmetry of lines, circles, intersecting lines, and bold striking angles. Perhaps one of the most popular of these symbols is the Vegvísir, one of the many Galdrastafir (praying or chanting staves) that appeared in Iceland after its settlement by Norse people in the late 9th century, but there are many more.
Preserved manuscripts contain a wealth of these magical symbols drawn by hand in personal hand books. In some cases there are accompanying sentences explaining their meanings and instruction on their use, and in many cases the very name of the symbol told them all they needed to know, with their uses open to interpretation.
For the last 120 years, runes have been misused, misrepresented, and misinterpreted to fit into systems of propaganda for extreme and objectionable political agendas. This form of cultural appropriation has done great damage in obscuring and twisting the original and true meanings of the runes. This edition includes an extra chapter that explains this history and sets the record straight for the reader to make informed choices.
The magic of the Norse people worked because they believed that it worked. They believed in the process of signalling and communicating their intentions and desirable outcomes to the forces around them, projecting them into the universe, and having the confidence and belief to make things happen. This book explores these symbols and presents them to the reader for their consideration as ideas for tattoos or symbols for personal talismanic magic.
