Almost Perfect Maddy, Christine, and Amy, friends since college, are thrilled to learn their old suitemate's self help book, How to Have a Perfect Life, has become a smashing bestseller-until they realize she used them as negative examples of how women let fear mess up their lives. The worst part is.it's sort of true. So, the three friends make a pact: They each have one year to face down their fears-and prove Miss Perfect wrong A Free Spirited Artist Maddy was always the artistic one of the group, full of life from her saucy red curls to her vintage hippie skirts. Her challenge, the friends decide, is to get her artwork accepted at a gallery. A job as arts director at a summer camp near Santa Fe-with its thriving art scene-seems like just the thing. A Reformed Bad Boy There's just one catch: The camp is run by Maddy's high school flame, Joe, whose heart she smashed when she chose her art over marriage to him. His anger over the breakup hasn't cooled one bit. But neither has their attraction. A Perfect Match? Old desires burn hotter than ever as Joe makes it clear there's only one way back into his heart: She has to get serious about the art career she once valued above all else. But will falling in love help or hinder Maddy as she struggles to meet her challenge? Praise for Julie Ortolon Entertaining and touching.--Booklist Ms. Ortolon is a gem of a new author.--Romantic Times. …

    Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. What can a husband do to improve his wife's life? That's the question J. S. Salt asked more than a thousand wives ages 19-78. It's a simple question, yet the answers promise to do more for man/woman relations than chocolates, flowers and all the sweet nothings a man can muster. Honest, revealing, wise and funny, the answers are compiled in this priceless collection. This guide instructs, amuses and provokes as it finally answers the question that has dumbfounded men since Adam bit the apple: What does a woman want? Wives tell all: * What to do when your wife is stressed * How to get what you want without raising your voice * What to do before you blow up * How great sex really begins * What to do daily and what to do weekly * The one thing you must never do on Valentine's Day-and more This delightful-yet telling-glimpse into what women are REALY thinking is a catalyst for better behavior and, then, better relationships. At last, husbands can get a clue. And it just might save a marriage or two.…

    Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. The Christian Science Monitor's #1 Best Book of the YearA witty, informative, and popular travelogue about the Scandinavian countries and how they may not be as happy or as perfect as we assume, The Almost Nearly Perfect People offers up the ideal mixture of intriguing and revealing facts (Laura Miller, Salon).Journalist Michael Booth has lived among the Scandinavians for more than ten years, and he has grown increasingly frustrated with the rose-tinted view of this part of the world offered up by the Western media. In this timely book he leaves his adopted home of Denmark and embarks on a journey through all five of the Nordic countries to discover who these curious tribes are, the secrets of their success, and, most intriguing of all, what they think of one another.Why are the Danes so happy, despite having the highest taxes? Do the Finns really have the best education system? Are the Icelanders as feral as they sometimes appear? How are the Norwegians spending their fantastic oil wealth? And why do all of them hate the Swedes? In The Almost Nearly Perfect People Michael Booth explains who the Scandinavians are, how they differ and why, and what their quirks and foibles are, and he explores why these societies have become so successful and models for the world. Along the way a more nuanced, often darker picture emerges of a region plagued by taboos, characterized by suffocating parochialism, and populated by extremists of various shades. They may very well be almost nearly perfect, but it isn t easy being Scandinavian.…
