With law school behind her, this sexy, sinful seductress has graduated to bigger--and badder--things... Raven Holloway has gone from heartbreaker to bona fide homewrecker. No sooner did she extract herself from a messy, not to mention illegal "situation" at school, than she managed to steal a Texas Senator from his devoted wife. But she's just getting started... Having convinced her new husband to run for governor--which will make her Texas's First Lady--nothing's going to stop Raven from getting what she wants, no matter who she has to step on, sleep with, or double cross. It's a long chain of fools that includes the senator's very own chief aide--a man with plenty to hide... Her pathway to success strewn with seductions, betrayals, and bribes, the future looks bright--except for the troubling matter of Raven's past. Her greatest fear is that her involvement in the unfortunate fate of her fellow student, ex-lover and partner-in-crime, Omar Faxton, will be discovered. And she's right to worry, because her dirty little secret is about to fall into the worst possible hands...
Although diversity is a twentieth-century term, as the United States continues through the twenty-first century, the issue of diversity in society and in organizations is becoming more complex. Managing Diversity in the Military addresses current equal opportunity and diversity issues and explores how the military is attempting to resolve them. The research presented reflects interests of scholars from various backgrounds who use different models, approaches, and methodologies, many of which are adapted from the study of civilian institutions. The work is divided into five sections âContemporary Approaches to Managing Diversity,â âDiversifying Leadership: Equity in Evaluation and Promotion,â âGender Integration and Sexual Harassment,â âMilitary Discipline and Race,â and âWhere Do We Go from Here?â which proposes future research directions for equal opportunity and diversity management in the armed forces. All of the areas explored in this accessibly written volume have counterparts in the civilian sector. The book offers insights, practical methodologies, and effective management guidelines for commanders, civilian-sector executives, and human resource practitioners responsible for equal opportunity programs and outcomes. This is now the standard social research tool in an area of profound practical concerns.

As human psychology deals with the mind and mental processes of mankind, Christian psychology concerns itself with the relationships among an individual’s spirit, soul, and body. While rationalistic, atheistic, humanistic, and other freethinking secular groups founded upon interpretations of social science theories are concerned with thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of individuals and groups as each is influenced by environmental factors, Christian psychology utilizes biblical theology as the tool for assessing the validity of psychological conclusions. Examining and evaluating science using biblical truths reveal the majesty of the Godhead; the nature of mankind; the intensity of God’s desired relationship with mankind; and a process for each individual to effect change in patterns of thinking, feeling, and perceiving the world around him/her. The nature of the human condition supports the position that spiritual, physiological, psychological, and socio-cultural components are vital to living a complete life. The scale, however, is tilted toward theology over psychology toward providing the remedy to cognitive dissonance in showing the ultimate way one chooses the life-path that gives meaning and direction to his/her existence while here on earth. Living in alignment with the Holy Spirit is the only means available to mankind toward achieving synergetic integration of spirit, soul, and body.

Relationships require people to connect on many compatibility levels. The erroneous belief that “opposites attract” holds true for forming enduring relationships is, in reality, little more than wishful thinking. Attracting opposites, incompatible in a number of areas, often fail to endure the reality of everyday life and commitment. Relationships based solely on the “opposites attract” phenomenon will, predictably, experience painful consequences. Since maintaining a successful relationship is dependent upon compatibility in areas of personality, belief system, friends and family, communication, finance, education, health and nutrition, and need system, attraction toward someone can be more of a burden than a bonus.

God has provided insight to share my story, my family's story as a way to shed light on the see no evil, hear no evil mentality in homes. He has offered me a way to heal, stitch up the wounds, and provide hope, love, a will to live, a sense of belonging, and new found purpose to those that feel like there is no light at the end of the tunnel. The hurt, betrayal, and despair felt by many in relatable situations such as the one written about here, can bring what seems to be taboo to the forefront and talked about as openly as possible to hopefully save lives. It shows how God can not only provide strength to those when needed, but give you the power to keep moving through the storm and find glory in His purpose for your life. We must never lean to our own understanding, but lean forever more on the Christ who's saved our lives to provide a means to saving someone else. Our lives were never meant to be our own and our experiences were never meant to be silent. We must open our mouths, share these testimonies, allow God to stitch us up, and lead others to salvation. Freedom is ours, and those we touch can have that too. My prayer is that you allow God to make you whole, usher in His love, and share with others to give God the Glory. Find your STRENGTH, find your POWER, find your HELP, and find GOD Shon Dansby personally knows about pain and suffering at the hands of domestic abuse.
