Accidentally Amy / by Painter, Lynn,author.;
"A stolen latte results in a meet-cute for the ages in this originally self-published, brand-new edition of New York Times bestselling author Lynn Painter's rom-com Accidentally Amy, with bonus content. Isabella Shay is usually a very honest person. But when she's running late for her first day at her dream job and the barista yells for "Amy" three times with no answer, she does the unthinkable. Izzy takes that PSL. It's the exact drink she ordered and paid for, only way further ahead in the queue-and she'll take whatever bad karma is coming for her; she's desperate and very late. But when she turns around and runs directly into the most attractive man she's ever seen, spilling the drink all over his made-for-GQ shirt and tie, she ends up having the ultimate meet-cute. Karma who? Sparks fly and things feel beyond promising, until he says to her: "See you tomorrow, Amy." Izzy reasons she can just straighten things out the next day, no biggie. Only when she gets to her new office and meets the VP of her department, it is none other than Blake Phillips-the hottie from Starbucks. And the man might've been charming to "Amy," but he is an arrogant grump to Izzy, an arrogant grump who does not find her explanation funny at all. But day by day, an attraction simmers between them and they'll have to find a way to work together without ripping each other's heads-or clothes-off"--

As she prepares to take her own life, fate offers her a new path. Almost no one believes she can do it. She is a woman, unaccustomed to this form of danger. She is too old, too frail for such deadly work. But Britain is on the brink of losing the war, and so she is sent, as an experiment more than anything else, to train as a Special Operative Executive.

Burke's law : a life in hockey / by Burke, Brian,1955-author.; Brunt, Stephen,author.;
The gruffest man in hockey opens up about the challenges, the feuds, and the tragedies he's fought through. Brian Burke is one of the biggest hockey personalities--no, personalities full-stop--in the hockey media landscape. His brashness makes him a magnet for attention, and he does nothing to shy away from it. Most famous for advocating "pugnacity, truculence, testosterone, and belligerence" during his tenure at the helm of the Maple Leafs, Burke has lived and breathed hockey his whole life. He has been a player, an agent, a league executive, a Stanley Cup-winning GM, an Olympic GM, and a media analyst. He has worked with Pat Quinn, Gary Bettman, and an array of future Hall of Fame players. No one knows the game better, and no one commands more attention when they open up about it. But there is more to Brian Burke than hockey. He is a graduate of Harvard Law, and an accomplished businessman with hard-earned lessons that come from highly-scrutinized decisions made at the helm of multi-million-dollar companies. Not only does he know the game, but he has expertise to share in the business and management principles arenas as well. And despite his gruff persona, he is also a father with a story to tell. He lost his youngest son in a car accident, and has grappled with that grief. Many Canadians knew Burke's name already, because he became one of the country's most outspoken gay-rights advocates when his son Brendan came out in 2009. Brian Burke has learned many truths the hard way, and is courageous and insightful enough to share them with readers for the first time.
