With startling insight, Danielle Steel explores women's choices: between home and adventure, between the love for family and the passion for a cause, between sacrifice and desire.

Places of the Heart
Summary
Our surroundings can powerfully affect our thoughts, emotions, and physical responses, whether we’re awed by the Grand Canyon or Hagia Sophia, panicked in a crowded room, soothed by a walk in the park, or tempted in casinos and shopping malls. In Places of the Heart, Colin Ellard explores how our homes, workplaces, cities, and nature - places we escape to and can’t escape from - have influenced us throughout history and how our brains and bodies respond to different types of real and virtual space. As he describes the insight he and other scientists have gained from new technologies, he assesses the influence these technologies will have on our evolving environment and asks what kind of world we are, and should be, creating. Colin Ellard is the author of You Are Here: Why We Can Find Our Way to the Moon, but Get Lost in the Mall.

Wordpress for Beginners
Summary
Website design with Wordpress - plus real-world tips & tricks to save you time & energy This audiobook will save you a lot of time - and time is money! Here’s my quick story and why I wrote this book: As an entrepreneur in real estate originally, I had set up on my own HTML website way back in 2006 that kept growing with property profiles and images. I had so much media and pages that I was losing track of URLs and menus, seeing as it was a static HTML site, all changes had to be done manually then “FTP’d” up to the hosting account, and the site had no CMS (content management system). This was very time-consuming and stressful! Thankfully we have CMSs now. Once I discovered Wordpress in 2012, it changed my online presence forever; in fact, I went wild with it and created up to 30 awesome dynamic websites using various themes and cloned pages for various online businesses I have that made life so much simpler, and the sites looked way better that the old HTML sites. You can even get Wordpress applications that manage all of your Wordpress sites in one dashboard! If you’re a newbie entrepreneur, you have to have a dynamic website today with the ability to make funnel pages and quick text or post changes. The digital economy is growing super-fast and you have to keep up with a fast dynamic website. Unless you are a programmer, you don’t have time to code pages and scripts. With Wordpress you don’t need to know programming; it is so simple to use, in one day you can have a website up and the basics live. I’m going to show you how to set up your own domain and hosted account with Wordpress that you 100% fully control and own. Having a self-hosted domain and website increases the credibility of your business. It saves you money and it helps showcase your work to a wider market. It serves as your online brochure and increases your business value. Wordpress changed the blogging and web design world since it was released in 2003.

Road Ends
Summary
He listened as their voices faded into the rumble of the falls. He was thinking about the lynx. The way it had looked at him, acknowledging his existence, then passing out of his life like smoke.... It was the first thing - the only thing - that had managed, if only for a moment, to displace from his mind the image of the child. He had carried that image with him for a year now, and it had been a weight so great that sometimes he could hardly stand. Mary Lawson’s beloved novels, Crow Lake and The Other Side of the Bridge, have delighted legions around the world. The fictional Northern Ontario town of Struan, buried in the winter snows, is the vivid backdrop to her breathtaking new novel. Road Ends brings us a family unravelling in the aftermath of tragedy: Edward Cartwright, struggling to escape the legacy of a violent past; Emily, his wife, cloistered in her room with yet another new baby, increasingly unaware of events outside the bedroom door; Tom, their eldest son, 25 years old but home again, unable to come to terms with the death of a friend; and capable, formidable Megan, the sole daughter in a household of eight sons, who for years held the family together but has finally broken free and gone to England, to try to make a life of her own. Road Ends is Mary Lawson at her best. In this masterful, enthralling, tender novel, which ranges from the Ontario silver rush of the early 1900s to swinging London in the 1960s, she gently reveals the intricacies and anguish of family life, the push and pull of responsibility and individual desire, the way we can face tragedy, and in time, hope to start again.
