DOWNLOAD EBOOK"The heart isn't like the liver. It doesn't regenerate, no matter how much time passes. Once it's gone, it's gone for good. I'd left mine with Sebastian when I walked away that day, and I hadn't seen it in the seven years since." -- Lux Kincaid At eighteen, Lux is forced to make a choice. One that nearly destroys her. She breaks a boy's heart. She breaks her own, too. Seven years later, Lux never expects to see Sebastian again -- especially not when her career as a journalist is hanging by a thread and she's stumbled onto the story of a lifetime. As she chases down leads and explores the dark underbelly of Manhattan, Lux will put her life on the line. But after crossing paths with a still-unforgiving Sebastian, it's her heart she's most worried about. Amidst the blame and the betrayal, the hurt and the heartbreak... can two lost lovers ever find their way back to one another? Lines will be blurred. The past will be unearthed. And Lux will find out that some secrets aren't meant to be kept...

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe nation's premier communications expert shares his wisdom on how the words we choose can change the course of business, of politics, and of life in this country In Words That Work, Luntz offers a behind-the-scenes look at how the tactical use of words and phrases affects what we buy, who we vote for, and even what we believe in. With chapters like "The Ten Rules of Successful Communication" and "The 21 Words and Phrases for the 21st Century," he examines how choosing the right words is essential. Nobody is in a better position to explain than Frank Luntz: He has used his knowledge of words to help more than two dozen Fortune 500 companies grow. Hell tell us why Rupert Murdoch's six-billion-dollar decision to buy DirectTV was smart because satellite was more cutting edge than "digital cable," and why pharmaceutical companies transitioned their message from "treatment" to "prevention" and "wellness." If you ever wanted to learn how to talk your way out of a traffic ticket or talk your way into a raise, this book's for you.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKDON'T SAY A WORD is the empowering memoir of Kate Marshall, a mother-of-four from Manchester. Ripped from her many brothers and sisters at the age of eight, Kate's mother uproots her to a new life in which love and safety are not priorities. With few explanations, Kate is thrown into a world of chaos and neglect, a world which her Uncle Phil exploits through a campaign of shocking abuse over many years. The lessons Kate learns in those early years leave her extremely vulnerable and, while still a teenager, she marries an emotionally abusive, gaslighting fraudster, spending years in a controlled marriage punctuated by bulimia and a fierce desire to protect her beloved children. Finally finding the courage to leave, she seizes control of her own destiny by taking her paedophile uncle to court, where his guilt on all charges sees him finally face up to what he has done. From that moment, Kate vows she will never again be the victim of those who chose to control and abuse her, that she will fight for herself and for others with every breath she has - that she will never be silenced again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book "Just Say The Words" is the reflection of the author's conviction that every spoken or written word is significant. He states that the old saying: "One picture is worth a thousand words," is true, but "Only if you know the thousand words." The author is engaging in a process he calls "transmission" by which he indicates that what he has written is being "sent" and what is read is "received." He attempts to use picture words in place of abstract expressions. From the words written in the Bible to words written by prophets, playwrights and poets, the author reflects on the dynamic potential and powerful purpose of words. He states that Jesus the Christ is the master communicator. Jesus' words are life giving and life changing. In Jesus, Word and Deed go together. Whatever Jesus says, He does. The author shows how Attitude leads to Behavior which leads to Consequence. He helps us look at the importance of, and the difference between, Heredity and Environment in shaping human response to life situations. Reflecting on visits to Israel, the author describes treks through various places in the Holy Land and describes the "Most Religious Spot on Earth." He examines the importance of the concepts of Guilt and Gratitude, then asks for the readers response to what has been written.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKOne wrong move can undercut your message. Believe it or not, our bodies speak louder than our words. Postures, gestures, and expressions convey reams of information—and often not what you’d expect. A smile, for example, is usually considered welcoming. However, crook one corner of your mouth higher and you project superiority, subconsciously chasing other people away. This book explains how even the subtlest motions have meaning. Distilling decades of research, Without Saying a Word deciphers these unspoken signals: facial expressions, fleeting micro expressions, positive body language, negative body language, And much more! Discover which postures and gestures indicate confidence and build rapport—and which reveal disinterest, arrogance, or even aggression. Learn to end off-putting habits, accentuate good ones, and become an authentic and effective communicator. Exhibiting body language that is open, honest, and self-assured increases your social influence and enhances your skill as a negotiator while the ability to read the emotions and intentions of others is equally indispensable. Whether you’re making a presentation, pitching a project, or closing a deal, the right body language can be your best ally.
