Sinopse

When Zack Wallace’s uncle offered him the chance to fulfill his dreams with a job flying for his Alaska charter service, no way was Bailey George going to hold him back. Flying was Zack’s life. Which is why she never told him about the unexpected, unplanned pregnancy. Or answered his letters or returned his calls. Instead, she moved away, got her law degree, and raised her son with the help of her family and friends. When Bailey is charged with running a retreat for her law partners at Casa Blanca Resort and Spa at Barefoot Bay, the last person she expects to run into is Zack. But any chance of a future comes to a shrieking halt when Bailey’s son, the image of Zack, shows up at Barefoot Bay. Part Two It was bad luck that had Robin Hanna working late the night her boss, already in trouble with the feds, had two late visitors. Worse luck for him when they shot him dead. In less than twenty-four hours the FBI whisks her out of town and off to the Casa Blanca Resort and Spa in Barefoot Bay, Florida. If she has to hide a way, she gives thanks for the hiding place they picked…a luxury resort. Trey DeMarcus. He had his life all mapped out: a beautiful wife, a career in JAG, and then retirement to Montana, a state where he’s always wanted to live. Neither his wife nor the law practice worked out and now he’s at the Casa Blanca Resort and Spa, trying to figure out his life. When these two meet up, they have nothing in common except lives in chaos. Then Barefoot Bay works it’s magic, and soon the electricity between lights up the sky. But first she has to escape the killers on her track.

Music inside the CEOs building

Mace Quinn had always been a fiercely independent woman. Growing up in a small town in the middle of nowhere, she had learned to rely on herself from a young age. Her parents had both passed away when she was just a child, leaving her to be raised by her grandmother, who had instilled in her the importance of hard work and perseverance. Despite the challenges she had faced in her early years, Mace had always been determined to succeed. She had excelled in school, and had gone on to earn a degree in business from a prestigious university. With her education and drive, she had quickly risen through the ranks of the corporate world, and had become one of the youngest executives in her company's history. But despite her success, Mace had always felt like something was missing. She had never been one to open up to others, to let anyone in. That was until she met Harry Lance. Harry was just a child when Mace first met him. He was quiet and stoic, with a seriousness beyond his years. They had met at a local park, where Mace had been sitting on a bench, lost in her own thoughts. Harry had approached her timidly, asking if she wanted to play catch. At first, Mace had been hesitant. She wasn't used to spending time with children, and had never been much of a sports person. But there was something about Harry that drew her in. Maybe it was his quiet determination, or the way he seemed to see right through her tough exterior. Whatever it was, Mace found herself agreeing to play catch with the young boy. From that day on, Mace and Harry became inseparable. They would meet at the park every week, and play catch or kick a soccer ball around. As they got to know each other better, Mace began to open up to Harry in a way she had never done with anyone else. She told him about her childhood, about her struggles and her dreams. In turn, Harry shared his own stories with Mace. He told her about his family, who had moved to the town a few years earlier. He talked about his love for music, and the guitar that he had saved up for months to buy. As the years went by, Mace and Harry's friendship only grew stronger. Mace watched with pride as Harry grew into a talented musician, playing gigs at local bars and coffee shops. And Harry looked up to Mace as a mentor, admiring her strength and determination. But as much as they relied on each other, there was always an underlying tension between them. Mace couldn't help but notice how Harry was growing into a handsome young man, with a quiet confidence that she found incredibly attractive. And Harry, for his part, was beginning to see Mace in a different light as well. He had always admired her strength and independence, but now he was starting to feel something more. Despite these feelings, Mace and Harry were hesitant to act on them. They were afraid that pursuing a romantic relationship could ruin the special bond they had built over the years. But as they continued to spend time together, it became clear that their feelings for each other were too strong to ignore. Now, as Mace and Harry navigate the complexities of their changing relationship, they must also face the challenges of the outside world. Mace's success in the corporate world has earned her many enemies, and Harry's musical ambitions are threatened by a jealous rival. But with each other's support, they know they can overcome any obstacle. In the end, Mace and Harry's story is one of strength, perseverance, and the power of friendship. It is a tale of two individuals who all throughout find their fates intertwined with one another.

My Life as Gambino

**My Life as Gambino** **Author: Inspired by Ryohgo Narita (author of "Baccano!" and "Durarara!!")** --- **Synopsis** In the sprawling underworld of modern Tokyo, where shadows dance with the neon lights, one name reverberates through the corridors of power and crime—Gambino. Known as the "Demon of Kabukicho," Giovanni Gambino is a foreigner who has climbed to the zenith of Japan’s most notorious crime syndicate. With a brutal past shrouded in mystery and a cunning mind that orchestrates the most audacious schemes, Gambino is a figure of both fear and respect. **Book 1: The Devil’s Bargain** Giovanni Gambino, a half-Italian, half-Japanese mafia boss, is as ruthless as he is charismatic. His life took a drastic turn when, as a child, he witnessed the violent demise of his father, a respected yakuza, at the hands of a treacherous rival. With his mother’s Italian heritage as his only shield, young Giovanni was sent to Sicily, where he was trained in the ancient arts of the Mafia under the watchful eye of his enigmatic uncle, Don Massimo. Years later, Giovanni returns to Tokyo, blending the old-world Mafia tactics with the brutal efficiency of the yakuza. He swiftly rises through the ranks, eventually taking control of the powerful Yamamoto Clan. As the new leader, Gambino initiates a bold and controversial plan to unite the fragmented criminal empires of Japan under his iron fist, promising a new era of prosperity and dominance. **Book 2: The Blood Pact** As Gambino consolidates his power, he faces unprecedented challenges. From internal betrayals within his own ranks to the looming threat of rival syndicates and the relentless pursuit of the Japanese police, Gambino’s empire stands on the brink of collapse. His greatest adversary is the mysterious "Black Dragon," a rival kingpin whose influence and brutality match his own. The stakes are raised when the Black Dragon kidnaps Gambino’s most trusted confidant and childhood friend, Sakura, forcing Gambino into a deadly game of cat and mouse. **Book 3: The Emperor’s Gambit** With the city's balance of power hanging by a thread, Gambino must forge alliances with unlikely allies, including the cunning Interpol agent, Kaede Tanaka, who harbors her own dark secrets. The lines between friend and foe blur as Gambino navigates a labyrinth of deceit and vengeance. As he delves deeper into the Black Dragon’s machinations, he discovers a conspiracy that threatens not only his empire but the very fabric of Tokyo’s underworld. **Book 4: The Final Reckoning** The saga culminates in an explosive finale where past and present collide. Gambino’s ultimate plan is unveiled—a daring move to dismantle the Black Dragon’s operations and reclaim his city. But the cost is high, and the path to victory is strewn with blood and betrayal. As the final showdown approaches, Gambino must confront the ghosts of his past, reconcile with his own identity, and make the ultimate sacrifice to protect those he loves and the empire he has built. **My Life as Gambino** is a gripping narrative of power, loyalty, and redemption, where the lines between good and evil are perpetually blurred. With its complex characters, intricate plot twists, and heart-pounding action, this light novel series captures the essence of the organized crime genre, delivering a masterful blend of drama and thriller that will leave readers on the edge of their seats.
