Book Description
Ruthless Alexi Steele is determined, relentless, and driven to protect the innocent. She’s a top agent of the NSA’s clandestine Recovery Enforcement Division, specializing in human trafficking and sex crimes. Her current mission: To infiltrate the inner circle of Boston’s exclusive S&M clubs in order to save young women who are about to be auctioned off to the highest bidders. But Lexi’s only way in is under the control of her new partner in crime, Nick Donovan. Nick will do whatever it takes to bring down the billionaire sex-ring mastermind who’s kidnapped his sister. But the games he must play as Lexi’s dominant are burning away his icy control, and blurring the lines between partners. Meanwhile, their enemies are closing in as they enter a devastating race against time...bringing them dangerously close to a ruthless end. Fractured When an old nemesis resurfaces in New York City, girls from across the globe are recruited for a modeling competition, only to become enslaved prostitutes. It’s up to Lexi Steele, an undercover agent with the NSA’s Recovery Enforcement Division, and her partner, Nick Donovan, to infiltrate the operation and free the victims. Finding the mastermind, who slipped through their hands once before, is only half the challenge. Nick is keeping a shocking secret from his past that’s affecting their mission. Time is running out, and Lexi may be forced to do the unthinkable to see that the job is done. Vendetta Special Agent Lexi Steele, an operative with the NSA’s highly secretive Recovery Enforcement Division, and her partner, Nick Donovan, are on the trail of their nemesis, criminal mastermind Karl Bachmann. Lexi is shocked and furious when her team is ordered to stop their investigation. Why would the government let a vicious criminal who deals in sex trafficking get away? Bachmann is now out for revenge and bent on destroying Lexi. When a family member is kidnapped, it’s a race against time, but they soon find themselves caught in a web of deceit and betrayal that goes to the very core of the U.S. Government. Amid all the turmoil, Lexi fights her emotions for Nick, a distraction she can’t allow. He wants her trust and love—something she might never be able to give.

The SAGE Encyclopedia of Alcohol
Author: Scott C. Martin
Publisher: SAGE Publications
ISBN: 1483331083
Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 1674
Book Description
Alcohol consumption goes to the very roots of nearly all human societies. Different countries and regions have become associated with different sorts of alcohol, for instance, the “beer culture” of Germany, the “wine culture” of France, Japan and saki, Russia and vodka, the Caribbean and rum, or the “moonshine culture” of Appalachia. Wine is used in religious rituals, and toasts are used to seal business deals or to celebrate marriages and state dinners. However, our relation with alcohol is one of love/hate. We also regulate it and tax it, we pass laws about when and where it’s appropriate, we crack down severely on drunk driving, and the United States and other countries tried the failed “Noble Experiment” of Prohibition. While there are many encyclopedias on alcohol, nearly all approach it as a substance of abuse, taking a clinical, medical perspective (alcohol, alcoholism, and treatment). The SAGE Encyclopedia of Alcohol examines the history of alcohol worldwide and goes beyond the historical lens to examine alcohol as a cultural and social phenomenon, as well—both for good and for ill—from the earliest days of humankind.
