Nothing has interested me since my injury, but Keir draws me in like no other. Keir says he’s looking for a summer nanny. But what enthralls me is the wicked fire in his gaze.

No Billionaire Left Behind
Author: Angelique Haugerud
Publisher: Stanford University Press
ISBN: 0804786313
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Growing economic inequality, corporate influence in politics, an eroding middle class. Many Americans leave it to politicians and the media to debate these topics in the public sphere. Yet other seemingly ordinary Americans have decided to enter the conversation of wealth in America by donning ball gowns, tiaras, tuxedos, and top hats and taking on the imagined roles of wealthy, powerful, and completely fictional characters. Why? In No Billionaire Left Behind, Angelique Haugerud, who embedded herself within the "Billionaires" and was granted the name "Ivana Itall," explores the inner workings of these faux billionaires and mines the depths of democracy's relationship to political humor, satire, and irony. No Billionaire Left Behind is a compelling investigation into how satirical activists tackle two of the most contentious topics in contemporary American political culture: the increasingly profound division of wealth in America, and the role of big money in electoral politics. Anthropologist and author Angelique Haugerud deftly charts the evolution of a group named the Billionaires—a prominent network of satirists and activists who make a mockery of wealth in America—along with other satirical groups and figures to puzzle out their impact on politics and public opinion. In the spirit of popular programs like The Colbert Report and The Daily Show, the Billionaires demonstrate a sophisticated knowledge of economics and public affairs through the lens of satire and humor. Through participant observation, interviews, and archival research, Haugerud provides the first ethnographic study of the power and limitations of this evolving form of political organizing in this witty exploration of one group's efforts to raise hope and inspire action in America's current political climate.

Pages : 986
Book Description
Dive into the sultry world of Alpha Billionaire Daddies – Three steamy books including: age gap, secret baby, second chance, enemies to lovers, fake relationship and forced proximity. Damaged Secret Daddy Lilian ghosted me five years ago and took something irreplaceable with her… my unborn child. I’ll never forgive her for that. I thought I was over her. But seeing her again brought all my feelings rushing back…including the anger. Her pathetic excuses only make it worse. When my family and I realize I have a little boy, I’m given little option in how to handle it. This scandal could ruin my family. Lilian and I must marry. I can play happy family with Lilian for the sake of our son and my family’s reputation. Even if it’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do. Turns out it's way easier than I expected. The more time we are forced to spend together, the more I remember all the reasons I loved her to begin with. The times I have her bare body under my hands is absolute bliss. But right as I think things are going well, she asks for a divorce. When I find out she is pregnant with my baby… again, things are about to get complicated… Fake Fiancé Boss Daddy My boss wanted a fake fiancée. The last thing we want is a baby surprise. Loxton Breckwood seemed to have it all. Looks, charm, prestige. A hoard of women lining up to spend one night in his bed… The only thing he didn’t have was access to his trust fund. Requirement number one? A steady relationship. A notion an infamous playboy like him couldn’t even begin to entertain. That’s where I came in… Sadie Thomas. Personal assistant extraordinaire. Model employee. Prime fake fiancée material. Too bad his pale blue eyes and striking tattoos start getting in the way. He is temptation personified, and when a work party goes off the rails, I give in and end up in bed with him. Now, my attraction to him is only one of my problems. Before I know it, I have two even bigger ones. A positive pregnancy test in my hand and a secret that would drive away the daddy of my baby… Broken Single Daddy's Baby My job was to watch his kids. I never expected to become the mother of the next one... Derek Ledderman was the stuff of dreams. Tall, blond, and broad, with green eyes that could see right through my soul, a fortune any man would kill for, and a smile he saved just for special occasions. But why is he has to be so off-limits? Not only is he my boss, but he is also unhappily divorced, and sixteen years older. To complicate matters further, he happens to be my aunt's ex-husband. Too bad resisting my attraction to him kept getting harder every day… I was in so deep that I’d give this man anything he asked for, ....including my V card. But when I finally surrendered myself to him and spent a night in his arms, I was afraid I’d made the biggest mistake of my life. He was no longer just the grumpy single dad I called my boss. He was the father of my baby, and I had no idea how he'd react to the news...

When recently laid-off Francophile Veronica Carson is recommended for an au pair job by the elegant leader of her French conversation group, she isn't sure what to expect—but a Gothic castle deep in the wilds of Maine is certainly not it.

The tragedy of his recent past is still fresh in his mind, and he wants nothing to do with his son's lovely new au pair. Despite his best efforts, though, he can't seem to get her off his mind. A passionate romance begins to blossom but is put to the test when painful reminders of Alain's past return. As ugly rumors swirl, the truths of the past and the present collide. Veronica must decide if Alain really is a beast and, if so, whether she can love him enough to break through the dark memories and secrets that tether him to what once was.
