Jilted / by Keeland, Vi,author.;
Weddings. I spend every working minute talking and writing about them, when just the thought of one makes me want to scream. After my fiancé abandoned me at the altar last year, my dream job at Bride magazine has turned into a reoccurring nightmare. To add insult to injury, the bridezilla at my latest assignment somehow roped me into filling in for a missing bridesmaid. Of course, I had to get paired with the most gorgeous groomsman. Wilder Hayes is perfect--except when he opens his mouth and we end up bickering all evening. That is, until the coat closet incident. At least I'll never have to see him again. Or so I think ... Until I walk into work on Monday and find out Wilder isn't just a jerk, he's also my boss's son. And I'll be spending the rest of the season working with him at every single wedding I cover this year. It's a match made in heaven ... or hell. Only time will.

The Italians / by Hooper, John,1950-;
Includes bibliographical references and index.How can a nation that spawned the Renaissance have produced the Mafia? How could people concerned with bella figura (keeping up appearances) have elected Silvio Berlusconi as their leader, not once, but three times? Sublime and maddening, fascinating yet baffling, Italy is a country of seemingly unsolvable riddles. John Hooper's entertaining and perceptive new book is the ideal companion for anyone seeking to understand contemporary Italy and the unique character of the Italians. Digging deep into their history, culture, and religion, Hooper offers keys to understanding everything from their bewildering politics to their love of life and beauty. Looking at the facts that lie behind the stereotypes, he sheds new light on many aspects of Italian life-- football and Freemasonry, sex, symbolism, and the reason why Italian has twelve words for a coat hanger, yet none for a hangover. Even readers who think they know Italy well will be surprised, challenged, and delighted by The Italians.

The power of teamwork : how we can all work better together / by Goldman, Brian,author.;
"New from the bestselling author of The Power of Kindness and host of CBC Radio's White Coat, Black Art. In the high-pressure and complex setting of healthcare, a new approach to teamwork is leading to healthy patients, happier staff and more efficient operations. Healthcare's embracing of a new teamwork model has gotten noticed by people well outside the world of medicine, so doctors are going outside the walls of the hospital to teach manufacturers, business owners, franchisees, customer and social services and even the worlds of sports and entertainment to do better by shifting the culture from "me" to "we." Drawing on groundbreaking research and examples from around the world, The Power of Teamwork shows how the team approach from medicine can improve customer service and help women break the glass ceiling. It can solidify the providing of social services to troubled youth. It can boost the efficiency and safety of the military and critical industrial complexes like nuclear power plants. It can even make professional sports teams perform better."--

"This time out, Dixie's got a furry partner-in-crime, an irascible Lhasa Apso named Charlie. They've just arrived at the home of one of Dixie's regular clients to check in on Franklin, a mackerel tabby with avocado-green eyes and a luxuriant coat the color of dried beach grass. Despite a couple of bumps in the road (Franklin seems to be hiding in one of his favorite cubby holes, and Charlie scratches up the parlor door trying to get to the other side), everything else is perfectly normal. That is, until the next day, when Dixie discovers a dead body on the other side of that parlor door, along with a note that seems to suggest she had something to do with it. Soon, there's another victim, and then another note, and Dixie quickly finds herself caught in a maze of mystery and danger, where all the clues have her name written all over them, and where she must find the murderer ... before he finds her"--Provided by publisher.

Meant to be immortal / by Sands, Lynsay.;
Mac Argeneau knows all too well: immortals can be killed. Not with holy water or silver crosses, but by decapitation or being set on fire. So when Mac's house bursts into flames--with him inside--he's sure it was no accident. But who would want to kill a scientist specializing in hematology? There is a silver lining: a blonde investigator appears on the scene and sparks feelings in him that have been dormant for centuries. CJ Cummings is in town on a special investigation, but she's been waylaid by the local police to deal with this arson case. The biggest mystery is how this sexy scientist with silvery blue eyes has emerged from a blazing inferno without a burn mark on him. He's clearly hiding something. Sure, she'd love to see him without his lab coat, but she's got a job to do--despite his insistence that he needs a bodyguard and...he wants her. But when a second attempt on their lives puts CJ in harm's way, it's Mac who will do anything to safeguard the woman who's destined to be his life mate.
