SynopsisIn Heart & Soul , Shook takes readers on heartwarming journeys through some of America's most successful companies: Mary Kay (Dallas), whose primary focus has always been to be a vehicle for women's success and independence in a world that often supports neither; the company now has more than 2 million women working toward their dreams in 37 countries. DaVita (Los Angeles/Denver), America's largest dialysis company, which transformed its culture from a financially oriented bureaucracy to a company focused on excellent customer service and improving and extending the lives of millions of patients. InReturn (Cincinnati), a company that intentionally employs those with brain injury and other neurological challenges. World Wide Technology (St.Louis), the largest African-American--owned business in the nation, which thrives on biblical principles of fairness and caring. Starkey Laboratories (St.Paul/Minneapolis), whose employees travel to remote places to provide more than 50,000 hearing aids to the poor. To the employees of these companies, success is measured by the good they accomplish in the world. However, profiting and caring aren't mutually exclusive—these companies demonstrate how any company of any size can do both., A Delicate Flower Lady Caroline Burroughs is desperate. Her unscrupulous guardian is squandering away her inheritance, and now wants to gain complete control over her dwindling wealth by forcing her to wed his aged crony. But Caroline has found a solution to her woes. Though it means surrendering her long-cherished dream of marrying for love, she agrees to a preemptive temporary union with a devilishly handsome stranger -- a brave and noble Scotsman who believes that love is an illusion. A Thorny Romance Major Hugh MacColme has every reason to hate the British -- since the Crown stole his ancestral castle and sent his father and brother into exile. And he never imagined he would end up marrying one of the enemy. But a year spent in the intimate company of an exquisite English rose seems a small price to pay for recovering his birthright. For tender-hearted Caroline, however, the difficult part will be coping with her unexpected desire for this proud and distant man -- and harder still, convincing Hugh that the wife he has no use for is the warm and healing love that he truly needs.
