From USA TODAY Bestselling Author, Lexy Timms, comes a billionaire romance that'll crank up the heat and have you falling in love all over again.
Jamie Connors has given up on finding a man. Despite being smart, pretty, and just slightly overweight, she's a magnet for the kind of guys that don't stay around.
Her sister's wedding is at the foreground of the family's attention. Jamie would be fine with it if her sister wasn't pressuring her to lose weight so she'll fit in the maid of honor dress, her mother would get off her case and her ex-boyfriend wasn't about to become her brother-in-law.
The Sebastians own this city.
Hell, they own the whole world.
All I want is one little piece of it, a corner that I can call my own.
So when my boss runs away to “find herself”, I seize the opportunity and dive head first into the Sebastian’s glamorous universe. It’s everything I’ve ever wanted—fast paced and high stakes—and, even though I don’t fit in, I’m excellent at faking it.
Until I come face to face with the man in charge, Scott Sebastian, the arrogant, playboy heir with the mind of a devil and the body of a god and a mouth I can’t stop thinking about.
Get ready to love Jann Arden even more than you already do. While the acerbically witty “Insensitive” singer turned sitcom actress has always been unapologetic about her flaws, this memoir goes deep on her journey to accept and love herself—body, mind, and soul. Her book is filled with the inspiring stories of the amazing women who’ve shaped her…like her great-aunt Earn, who smoked, swore like a sailor, and raced around town in a sports car. Arden also talks openly about those who’ve let her down, including her alcoholic father, and writes with total honesty about her own drinking problem and her battles with anxiety and depression. It’s wonderfully freeing to hear Arden own up to all of her missteps and explain why they’ve ultimately helped make her a happier and healthier person. If I Knew Then is definitely a bit of a self-help guide. It’s near impossible not to come away from it inspired to love yourself and cherish each day on earth.

After all, he points out, observing the actions of established stars like Dr. Dre and Eminem helped shape his own trajectory.

His straight-from-the-gut memoir is filled with honesty that resonates, especially when he outlines the key differences between the man Curtis Jackson and the persona of 50 Cent. Packed full of the media mogul’s most deeply personal thoughts, Hustle Harder, Hustle Smarter left us inspired to work just as tirelessly and fearlessly to achieve our own dreams.
