Done Dirt Cheap
英文图书 Sarah Nicole Lemon
Tourmaline Harris's life hit pause at fifteen, when her mom went to prison because of Tourmaline's unintentionally damning testimony. But at eighteen, her home life is stable, and she has a strong relationship with her father, the president of a local biker club known as the Wardens. Virginia Campbell's life hit fast-forward at fifteen, when her mom "sold" her into the services of Hazard, a powerful attorney: a man for whom the law is merely a suggestion. When Hazard sets his sights on dismantling the Wardens, he sends in Virginia, who has every intention of selling out the club—and Tourmaline. But the two girls are stronger than the circumstances that brought them together, and their resilience defines the friendship at the heart of this powerful debut novel.

性格决定做人
励志李铁红
俗话说： “江山易改，秉性难移。”性格有与生俱来的部分，也有后天的因素，而后天因素是相当重要的。环境之于人性格的作用是双重的，既可以磨炼改变一种性格，又可以促成和加重另外一种性格。因此，一个人对另一个人的做人方式是很难把握的。而每个人的性格又并非单一，也许正因为如此，人生才会充满大起大落、悲欢离合。诚然，每种性格都有优点和缺点，但并不是好与不好的问题，如何扬长避短要靠每个人的意志，靠自觉调节的能力。抑制冲动的能力是可以锻炼出来的。一个善于抑制冲动的人，对自己人际关系处理的好坏有很大的影响，本书收集了一些名人事例，以供参考借鉴。
