Eine Liebe, so verboten und gefährlich, dass sie besser nie an die Öffentlichkeit gelangt ... Leni steht dauerhaft im Rampenlicht, und aus jedem kleinen Fehltritt wird sofort ein Skandal gemacht. Dabei möchte die Präsidententochter nur in Ruhe studieren und ein normales Leben führen! Die Ablenkung in Form ihres neuen sexy Bodyguards kommt da gerade recht. Trotz seiner arroganten Art hat sie kein Problem damit, ihn ständig in der Nähe zu haben. Secret-Service-Agent Luke ist nicht glücklich über seinen neuen Auftrag. Wie soll er Leni beschützen, wenn sie von einem Ärger in den nächsten stolpert? Doch obwohl sie sein schlimmster Albtraum ist, mag er sie ... mehr als er sollte. Ihre Gefühle füreinander sind absolut verboten und wären ein gefundenes Fressen für die Presse, doch das ist Leni egal. Dabei ahnt sie nicht, dass diese Beziehung sie und jeden, der ihr nahesteht, das Leben kosten könnte. Denn es gibt jemanden, der Leni unter keinen Umständen teilen möchte ... Ein spannender und zugleich sexy New-Adult-Roman von Bestseller-Autorin Any Cherubim. Dies ist die überarbeitete Neuauflage von "White House Princess - Desaster" (2017 erschienen). ACHTUNG: Es wird es nach vielen Jahren einen langersehnten 3. Band geben, der nochmal alles auf den Kopf stellt!

Diamonds are a multi-billion dollar business involving some of the world’s largest mining companies, a million and a half artisanal diggers, more than a million cutters and polishers and a huge retail jewellery sector. But behind the sparkle of the diamond lies a murkier story, in which rebel armies in Angola, Sierra Leone and the Congo turned to diamonds to finance their wars. Completely unregulated, so-called blood diamonds became the perfect tool for money laundering, tax evasion, drug-running and weapons-trafficking. Diamonds brings together for the first time all aspects of the diamond industry. In it, Ian Smillie, former UN Security Council investigator and leading figure in the blood diamonds campaign, offers a comprehensive analysis of the history and structure of today’s diamond trade, the struggle for effective regulation and the challenges ahead. There is, he argues, greater diversification and competition than ever before, but thanks to the success of the Kimberley Process, this coveted and prestigious gem now represents a fragile but renewed opportunity for development in some of the world’s poorest nations. This part of the diamond story has rarely been told.

Sparkling rocks, family secrets, and seductive lies Mia's advertising career masks a side job in the family business―the business is thievery and the competition kills. Partnering with her brother, Andy, Mia is drawn into a short timeline to plan a diamond heist to make good on Andy's double-cross of the crime boss who hired him for the prior job. Openly teasing the mark, Mia plays with the jeweler's attraction to her, insinuating herself into his life, gaining his confidence. When Andy's past threatens them both, Mia abandons the heist and disappears. The mark, under Mia's spell, hides and protects her from danger. They are both in peril as her brother's stalker closes in on them. Alternating between ecstasy and fear, she has to make a fateful decision. Is she placing her trust in the wrong man? Can a relationship built on lies become real?

Fibbing, prevaricating, stretching the truth, white lies, of omission, of commission. Lying is so pervasive that we have countless words for it. But have you ever considered why you believed a lie you were told - or why we lie at all? In this witty, whirlwind tour through the annuls of deceit, bestselling author Aja Raden combines psychology, popular science and history to explore everything you've ever wanted to know about manipulation and lying, showing how it evolved and why even the birds and the bees do it. From 'big lies' like the English gent who invented a South American country to pyramid schemes like Bernie Madoff, this is an eye-opening primer that decodes how we behave and function, and reveals how lying shapes our experience of the world around us.

A provocative and unsettling look at the nature of love and deception Is it possible to love well without lying? At least since Socrates's discourse on love in Plato's Symposium, philosophers have argued that love can lead us to the truth—about ourselves and the ones we love. But in the practical experience of erotic love—and perhaps especially in marriage—we find that love and lies often work hand in hand, and that it may be difficult to sustain long-term romantic love without deception, both of oneself and of others. Drawing on contemporary philosophy, psychoanalysis and cognitive neuroscience, his own personal experience, and such famed and diverse writers on love as Shakespeare, Stendhal, Proust, Adrienne Rich, and Raymond Carver, Clancy Martin—himself divorced twice and married three times—explores how love, truthfulness, and deception work together in contemporary life and society. He concludes that learning how to love and loving well inevitably requires lying, but also argues that the best love relationships draw us slowly and with difficulty toward honesty and trust. Love and Lies is a relentlessly honest book about the difficulty of love, which is certain to both provoke and entertain.

Africa's diamond wars took four million lives. They destroyed the lives of millions more and they crippled the economies of Angola, the Congo, Liberia and Sierra Leone. The biggest UN peacekeeping forces in the world-in Sierra Leone, Liberia, the Congo and C te d'Ivoire―are the legacy of 'conflict' or 'blood diamonds'. 'Blood on the Stone' tells the story of how diamonds came to be so dangerous. It describes the history of the great diamond cartel and how it gradually lost control of the precious mineral, as country after country descended into anarchy and wars fuelled by diamonds. The book describes the diamond pipeline, from war-torn Africa to the glittering showrooms of Paris, London and New York. It describes the campaign that began in 1999 and which eventually forced the industry and more than 50 governments to create a global certification system known as the Kimberley Process, aimed at wringing blood diamonds out of the retail trade. This gripping account concludes with a sobering assessment of the certification system, which soon became hostage to political chicanery, mismanagement and vested interests. Too important to fail, the Kimberley Process has been hailed as a regulatory model for Africa's extractive minerals. Behind the scenes, however, it runs the risk of becoming an ineffectual talk shop, standing aside as criminals re-infest the diamond world.
