Feeney was born in Elizabeth, New Jersey, to a blue-collar Irish-American family during the Depression. After service in the Korean War, he made a fortune as founder of Duty Free Shoppers, the world's largest duty-free retail chain. By 1988, he was hailed by Forbes Magazine as the twenty-fourth richest American alive. But secretly Feeney had already transferred all his wealth to his foundation, Atlantic Philanthropies. Only in 1997 when he sold his duty free interests, was he "outed" as one of the greatest and most mysterious American philanthropists in modern times, who had anonymously funded hospitals and universities from San Francisco to Limerick to New York to Brisbane. His example convinced Bill Gates and Warren Buffett to give away their fortunes during their lifetime, known as the giving pledge.

An illuminating biography of the man who taught Americans “how to win friends and influence people” Before Stephen Covey, Oprah Winfrey, and Malcolm Gladwell there was Dale Carnegie. His book, How to Win Friends and Influence People, became a best seller worldwide, and Life magazine named him one of “the most important Americans of the twentieth century.” This is the first full-scale biography of this influential figure. Dale Carnegie was born in rural Missouri, his father a poor farmer, his mother a successful preacher. To make ends meet he tried his hand at various sales jobs, and his failure to convince his customers to buy what he had to offer eventually became the fuel behind his future glory. Carnegie quickly figured out that something was amiss in American education and in the ways businesspeople related to each other. What he discovered was as simple as it was profound: Understanding people’s needs and desires is paramount in any successful enterprise. Carnegie conceived his book to help people learn to relate to one another and enrich their lives through effective communication. His success was extraordinary, so hungry was 1920s America for a little psychological insight that was easy to apply to everyday affairs. Self-help Messiah tells the story of Carnegie’s personal journey and how it gave rise to the movement of self-help and personal reinvention.

I didn't leave any glass slippers behind after our one-night stand, so why is the masquerade ball billionaire back in my life pretending to be Prince Charming? A fancy Halloween ball with New York City's elite wasn't in my planner, but somehow that's where I find myself, surrounded by deal-seeking billionaires and drowning in expensive perfumes. Yeah. I know. But the real surprise is the masked stranger I meet. He's tall and well-built with a voice as deep and rich as the coffee I sell, and he only has one rule: The masks stay on. The night we spend together is incredible. Mad and passionate, and worlds apart from my normal, boring life. Before I leave, he breaks his own rule... and the masks slip. I never expected him to show up at my failing coffee shop three weeks later. Eli Harris, my beautiful masked stranger, just happens to be a billionaire businessman who spends his days turning loss into profit. A coincidence? It can't be. An offer this perfect is literally too good to be true, and I'm not naive enough to believe billionaires have hearts of gold. But I'm out of options. Protecting my business and my heart is impossible with Eli this close to me. He keeps reminding me of the passion we shared that night and making me daydream about how it would feel to repeat it. Just when I think my one-night-stand could be Mr. Right, I find out about a bet that only a billionaire would make. I guess he was wearing an extra mask all along. The Billionaire Bet is an 88,000 word, standalone romance with an HEA and all the feels.
