Why Not Me?

By: Tammy Cranston

In three short years, Tammy’s life was flipped upside down—she went from planning a wedding to planning a funeral. Tammy admits that if God had told her what would happen after marrying Larry, she may have hesitated, questioning God’s plan and her ability to walk through the hard times ahead. However, God knew what He was doing, as He always does. Why Not Me? is the story of Larry and Tammy Smestad’s quest to live life to the fullest and enjoy the time God gave them while living with cancer. It is a story of loyalty, love, and loss, but ultimately it is a story of faith in a loving God who comforts us and gives us hope when we earnestly seek Him.

His Wallflower White

By: Tammy Andresen

He’ll keep her safe no matter the cost… When The Honourable Patrick Cranston is hired by the White family to guard a duke’s sister, he’s relieved. Watching one debutante is a fair sight easier than bareknuckle boxing, at least that’s how it seems. At first. But as trouble swirls about Lady Millicent, threatening the delicate beauty, he realizes her circumstances are far more dangerous than he first imagined. Her life is at risk and it’s his job to protect her. But that isn’t what scares him the most. The more time he spends with her, the more he realizes, his heart in peril as well and that frightens the hell out of him. Still, he’ll do anything to save them both. She needs a hero… But not for the reasons her brothers think. They’re planning to match her with a rich merchant to infuse the dukedom with much needed coin, but Millie will not be any man’s pawn. Not even her brother’s, The Duke of Whitehaven. And when he hires a guard, she makes the bare-knuckle boxer a counteroffer. Help her earn her freedom from a loveless marriage and she’ll gift him her inherited jewels, a trade that will secure his future too. But she didn’t factor in one very important detail. Patrick Cranston is not a pawn either. And he’s slowly, systematically stealing her breath and her affection until she’s forgotten why she ever fought marriage at all. But as France and England clash, the war threatens the White family, Millie most of all. Can Patrick hold back the forces bearing down on her? And how can she keep her heart and the future she has so carefully fought for?

Legendary Locals of the Mendonoma Coast

California

By: Tammy Durston

The Sonoma Mendocino coastline, famous for jagged cliffs, timber-filled ridges, and pounding surf, has been home to many people from varying histories and backgrounds. Pomo tribes, renowned for basketmaking, who were the first settlers and descendants, still live in the area. From early pioneers such as George Call, H.A. Richardson, Cyrus Robinson, J.A. Hamilton, and Antonio Stornetta to Pomo spiritual leader Essie Parrish and the founders of Sea Ranch (Al Boeke, and the team of designers and architects Lawrence Halprin, Charles Moore, William Turnbull, Donlyn Lyndon, and Richard Whitaker), the Sonoma Mendocino coast has many legendary locals. This area also has been home to renowned artists, musicians, writers, scientists, educators, and business leaders. Community services are especially vital to rural areas. Dedicated volunteers created Gualala Arts, services for seniors and youth, the Coast Library, theater groups, and restored historic buildings such as the famous Point Arena Lighthouse. These unsung heroes have brought new meaning to this vibrant community.

Except when his best friend’s sister, the lovely Miss Emily Cranston, is suddenly alone in the world, he knows it’s his duty to protect her. Which turns out to be a much larger job than he anticipated. Because while Emily is the picture of innocence, the trouble nipping at her heels is anything but. Jacob might be a no-good rake… but a lady that vulnerable needs to be protected from real evil. And that fact that she tempts him in all sorts of ways she ought not…. Well, he’s just going to have to keep her safe from that too. But while saving her from the world is a challenge, keeping his hands off her is proving to be impossible.

The Viscount to Avoid

By: Tammy Andresen

What if this princess didn’t wish to leave her tower? Fern liked being alone, tucked away from the rest of the world. People had a way of being so…disappointing. But when a viscount knocks at her door, he makes her an offer she can hardly refuse. Help him gain revenge on her evil stepsister, the very one who chased her into the tower, and he’d give her the means to pursue any future Fern wished. It was the perfect solution except for one detail. Leaving meant facing the demons of her past. And as attraction crackles between her and her new partner, the Viscount with a vendetta of his own, and a million reasons to double cross her, she has to decide, is the adventure worth the risk? And what if all her reasons for hiding away from the world turned out to be exactly right? There was only one way to find out.

A Deal With a Duke

By: Tammy Andresen

The Duke is her brother’s best friend… Which is the ONLY reason the Duke of Upton agrees to take Anna Smith away from London to protect the fragile beauty. Rath’s dark looks and derelict life are not compatible with the effervescent Anna. In fact, she quakes in fear every time he comes near her. As she should. If she had any idea the dark past he holds in his cold black heart, she’d surely run screaming from his country estate. And that can’t happen because he’s not the biggest bad in the North of England. When the very villain who forced her to flee London finds her, Rath, beast of a man that he is, is the only one who can protect her. To truly keep her safe, he has to keep her close. And soon it's not fear that has her trembling in his arms, and his need to protect her has nothing to do with duty. But his past is as much a danger as hers and soon he realizes that she isn’t just his greatest temptation and his most important job. She’s also…. His one weakness.

The Duke Who Dared

By: Tammy Andresen

What if the Ugly Duckling decided that what she wished for most was revenge? A woman like Lady Aubrey Featherington should know better than to dare a duke… But what if she dared him anyway? “You wouldn’t,” I fired at him, notching my chin higher as I balled my fists into my skirts. “Oh princess…” He stares back at me with a heat that threatens to melt my bones. “You ought to know by now I would and will.” Challenging the sixth Duke of Westgate was a risk. But in this glittering court of opulence there is only one thing that shines brighter than this man: the Rivermore Diamond. A blue diamond of the finest quality, a gift from the Marquess of Cintwell to Aubrey’s mother upon her inconvenient entrance into the world. By right and birth, the glittering stone belongs to Aubrey and she’ll have it back no matter the price. Westgate with his piercing blue eyes and his rakish grin can go the devil. Then again, after what she’s about to do, perhaps she’s the one who is going to Hades… Twisted fairytale mystery romance enemies to lovers friends to lovers Cinderella Kate Bateman Darcy Burke Erica Ridley Christ Caldwell Janna MacGregor Scarlett Scott

Moms in Chief

The Rhetoric of Republican Motherhood and the Spouses of Presidential Nominees, 1992–2016

By: Tammy R. Vigil

In 1776, when Abigail Adams implored her husband to “Remember the Ladies,” John Adams scoffed, declaring, “We know better than to repeal our masculine system.” More than two hundred years later, American women continue to struggle against the idea that they are simply vassal extensions of their husbands—a notion that is acutely enacted in presidential campaigns. An examination of how the spouses of recent presidential candidates have presented themselves and been perceived on the campaign trail, Moms in Chief reveals the ways in which the age-old rhetoric of republican motherhood maintains its hold on the public portrayal of womanhood in American politics and constrains American women’s status as empowered, autonomous citizens. The rhetoric of republican motherhood describes the ostensibly ideal female patriot as domestically focused, self-sacrificial, deferential, and defined by her relationship to others, particularly her husband. Moms in Chief combines the study of history, gender, communication, and politics to show how the spouses of the major parties’ presidential nominees from 1992 to 2016 at times fulfilled, at other times flouted, but at all times were handicapped by this stereotype. From Barbara Bush as dynastic mother to Michelle Obama as “Mom-in-Chief,” from Laura Bush as all-American wife to Melania Trump as model immigrant, from Teresa Heinz Kerry as assertive heiress to Bill Clinton as past president and prospective first gentleman, Tammy R. Vigil explores the function of presidential consorts in their spouses’ campaigns, and she scrutinizes how their portrayal by opponents, the press, and themselves has challenged or reinforced perceptions of the role of gender, and the place of women, in American political life. In the unofficial contest between candidates’ spouses, there are winners and losers. What is at stake, Vigil’s research suggests, is the very definition of women as American citizens and political actors.

Understanding Deviance

Connecting Classical and Contemporary Perspectives

By: Tammy L. Anderson

In this collection of 48 reprinted and completely original articles, Tammy Anderson gives her fellow instructors of undergraduate deviance a refreshing way to energize and revitalize their courses. [36 are reprints; 12 are original to this text/anthology] First, in 12 separate sections, she presents a wide range of deviant behaviors, traits, and conditions including: underage drinking and drunk driving, doping in elite sports, gang behavior, community crime, juvenile delinquency, hate crime, prison violence and transgendered prisoners, mental illness, drug-using women and domestic violence, obesity, tattooing, sexual fetishes, prostitution, drug epidemics, viral pandemics, crime control strategies and racial inequality, gay neighborhoods, HIV and bugchasers, and (lastly) youth, multicultural identity and music scenes. Second, her pairing of "classic" and "contemporary" viewpoints about deviance and social control not only "connects" important literatures of the past to today’s (student) readers, her "connections framework" also helps all of us see social life and social processes more clearly when alternative meanings are accorded to similar forms of deviant behavior. We also learn how to appreciate and interact with those who see things differently from ourselves. This may better equip us to reach common goals in an increasingly diverse and ever-changing world. Third, a major teaching goal of Anderson’s anthology is to sharpen students’ critical thinking skills by forcing them to look at how a deviant behavior, trait or condition, can be viewed from opposing or alternative perspectives. By learning to see deviance from multiple perspectives, students will better understand their own and other’s behavior and experiences and be able to anticipate future trends. Balancing multiple perspectives may also assist students in their practical work in social service, criminal justice and other agencies and institutions that deal with populations considered "deviant" in one way or another.
