Book Description
I'd just lost my job when I made the deal. I put my life in billionaire Kenneth Marshall's hands as he offered me one weekend. One weekend to remember. To feel what I'd craved for too long. To be alive again. Wanted. Craved. I tried to cast the offer out of my mind, but it was impossible. I went running to him. I wondered if it'd be just one weekend or if he'd have me longer. I didn't know what tomorrow would bring, but I knew being with him was something I had to do. I thought about turning back and walking away, but as I arrived at his doorstep, I begged him to take me. Now I had to wonder, just what was he going to do with me?

Weekend Sewing
Author: Heather Ross
Publisher: Abrams
ISBN: 1683357272
Category : Crafts & Hobbies
Languages : en
Pages : 329
Book Description
More than just a pair of days, a weekend is also a state of mind—a feeling of relaxation and freedom to immerse ourselves fully in a favorite activity. In Weekend Sewing, designer Heather Ross presents creative projects for clothing, accessories, and home items that can be made in a weekend or less. Some, like the Quick Garden Gloves and Ruby’s Bloomers, take a few hours; others, like the Weekend-Away Travel Bag and Trapeze Sundress, require a day or two—but all of them capture that weekend feeling. And because weekends are often the most fun when they’re social, Ross features ideas that encourage us to share our stitching and our time, such as a recipe for soup to simmer while sewing, then serve to guests later in the day, and tips for transporting a sewing machine to a friend’s house for an afternoon of social stitching. The sewing instructions are beautifully illustrated.

The Routledge Handbook of Events
Author: Stephen J. Page
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 100005277X
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 837
Book Description
The Routledge Handbook of Events explores and critically evaluates the debates and controversies associated with the rapidly expanding domain of Event Studies. It brings together leading specialists from a range of disciplinary backgrounds, to provide a state-of-the-art review on the evolution of the subject. The first edition was a landmark study which examined how event research had evolved and developed from a range of different social science subject areas and disciplines. The Handbook was the first critique of the extent to which the subject had developed into a major area of social science inquiry. This second edition has been fully updated to reflect crucial developments in the field and includes brand new sections on ever-important aspects of Event Studies such as: anthropology, hospitality, seasonality, knowledge management, accessibility, diversity and human rights, as well as new studies on ‘the eventful city’ and the benefits of events in older life. The book is divided into four inter-related sections. Section 1 introduces and evaluates the concept of events. Section 2 critically reviews the relationship between events and other disciplines such as the contribution of economics, psychology and geography to the critical discourse of Event Studies. Section 3 focuses on the business, operational and strategic management of events, while the final section crucially focuses on critical events as a new paradigm within the burgeoning literature on Events. It offers the reader a comprehensive and critical synthesis of this field, conveying the latest thinking associated with events research, edited by two of the leading scholars in the field. The text will provide an invaluable resource for all those with an interest in Events Studies, encouraging dialogue that will span across disciplinary boundaries and other areas of study. It is an essential guide for anyone interested in events research.
