"A timely and smart discussion of how different cities and regions have made a changing economy work for them - and how policymakers can learn from that to lift the circumstances of working Americans everywhere."--Barack Obama We're used to thinking of the United States in opposing terms: red versus blue, haves versus have-nots. But today there are three Americas. At one extreme are the brain hubs--cities like San Francisco, Boston, and Durham--with workers who are among the most productive, creative, and best paid on the planet. At the other extreme are former manufacturing capitals, which are rapidly losing jobs and residents. The rest of America could go either way. For the past thirty years, the three Americas have been growing apart at an accelerating rate. This divergence is one the most important developments in the history of the United States and is reshaping the very fabric of our society, affecting all aspects of our lives, from health and education to family stability and political engagement. But the winners and losers aren't necessarily who you'd expect. Enrico Moretti's groundbreaking research shows that you don't have to be a scientist or an engineer to thrive in one of the brain hubs. Carpenters, taxi-drivers, teachers, nurses, and other local service jobs are created at a ratio of five-to-one in the brain hubs, raising salaries and standard of living for all. Dealing with this split--supporting growth in the hubs while arresting the decline elsewhere--is the challenge of the century, and The New Geography of Jobs lights the way.Binding Type: Paperback

Miles, Aiden, and Aspen
Format: Kindle
Man this was a great start to a series. The author got you hooked one the book from chapter one. We are still don't have all the answers but they will come in due time. I absolutely enjoyed this story. Miles seriously has my heart. He was just such a lovable guy. He served his country and was injured doing his job. He carries around a lot of trauma and emotional damage from that time. His childhood best friend Aiden feels guilt over what happened to Miles. He blames himself even though it was not his fault. Due to his trauma they form an unlikely pairing. They need each other and to share the person they are with due to Miles's trauma. They met Aspen and form and instant connection. Little does Aspen know that she has helped Miles during some of the worst of his times with her beautiful pictures. She is running away from a relationship and a job that literally used her and tossed her away. She forms an instant connection to both guys and Miles's dog Jubie. She teaches them both to not only forgive their past but also love themselves more. She is everything they need in their life. Mean while there is a killer/stalker running around causing havoc. Will we find out who the bad guy is? I guess we will have to keep reading the series to find out. I really enjoyed this book and I think the author did a great job keeping your interest. I cannot wait to see what else she has instore. She had great world building and character development.

Rediscovering herself and finding the unexpected
Format: Kindle
First we have Aspen a young woman who lost herself to her ex and what he wanted. She ran to Alaska to re-find her love of photography and the outdoors. While she did find this she also found a broody and overprotective former Navy Seal who still had a lot of healing to do, his super sweet over thinking best friend and their lovable doggo.
I absolutely love the different plot lines going on in this story. It leaves mystery and a sense of foreboding around every turn. Of course this doesn't answer all the question we have for Anchor Bay because this is only book one but I absolutely love the community they have.
Aspen has an immediate connection with the two friends. She has an easy and open demeanor that puts even the broody guy at ease enough to engage. Aspen is sweet, open, and genuinely cares about the people and animals she comes in contact with.
I can't wait to see what is next in Anchor Bay.

Perfect Combinarion of Romantic Suspense & Why Choose
4.5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️✨
I laughed, gasped, smiled, swooned, worried, and cried in this book. I am more emotional than some people but there were just a few scenes that I thought were beautiful, sad or relatable. (Those are all good enough reasons for me to tear up.)
—The friendship/brotherhood between Aiden and Miles is so wholesome and funny. They’ve just been through it all together and you can tell how much they mean to each other.
—The insta-love from Aiden was too much for me at first, but honestly it fit his personality and his perceptiveness. He knew they would all three be good together and mesh well. I think Aspen was able to reason through their fast attraction in a rational manner. Miles was slow to open up, which was expected with his history and trauma. They make an incredibly sexy throuple.
—I don’t always love the FMC, but Aspen is different and her character development felt relatable.
—Miles. M I L E S. Holy hell. 🔥🔥
-Overbearing? Maybe
-Grumpy? Of course
-Will do anything and everything to protect and care for those he loves?! ABSOLUTELY
—That ending was not *too* crazy but it did have me speed reading to make sure **spoiler** was okay. 🥺
—I’m seriously looking forward to book two and can’t wait to see what throuple is featured in the next book!

Love her romantic suspense
Format: Kindle
Kennedy L Mitchell is my go-to for romantic suspense. While this first book in the series is lower angst, it’s set up a great mystery that seems like it’ll cover at least the next book, maybe more. There is a bit of ex related drama on both Aspen’s and Miles & Aiden’s sides. Things definitely move quickly romantically and there was lots of excitement plot wise so you’re bound to find something to love with try this one.

Main Characters: Huntyr and Wolf
•
I couldn’t wait to read this book; there was so much hype about it! And there was no doubt why. I fell in love with the characters and the plot itself. This book is mainly plot driven more than friction driven but it’s easy to follow along with. The characters are fun, easily understood. The main setting is at an academy where both the main characters are going through trials and building strength for the final test, The Transcendent. There are fantastic side characters as well. I loved the camaraderie between Huntyr and her friends. But we don’t like Lanson. 😆
We do have some plot twists that come into play throughout the book. Secrets and betrayal to be seen. I did adore Wolf and Huntyr’s relationship. It was a classic slow burn trope. They didn’t hit it off fast, but in time their feelings grew. I loved their banter, so sexy. Wolf is your next book boyfriend; Huntyr is your next vampire assassin independent bad-a*s female. Themes include loyalty, trust, self-discovery, a true slow burn romance. Side note: book ends on a angsty cliffhanger!
