I Fought Like a Girl and I Won!: The Journey Continues.

Dorman, Nicole Alyse

Flawless diamonds, ancient gold coins, antique jewelry.Treasures scattered in the rubble of the old Soviet Union In 1995, international economist Tom Yeager leaves his Texas Hill Country retreat to undertake a mission in an Armenia ravaged by earthquake, war and its neighbors' economic blockade to salvage a desperately-needed World Bank loan. Along the way, his distant past as a diamond courier rises up from London and Amsterdam to haunt him. While he grapples with Armenia's economic problems, forces gather around him to put his life and the lives of two women at risk--the exotic Armenian Ana Stepanian and the brainy, beautiful American Mariah Carroll. He must decide whether to honor his father's last wish and accept a packet of stolen Russian diamonds and take them out of Armenia along with the rarest of ancient gold coins and antique jewelry that will assure one Armenian family's future. Pursued by a Russian killer and an Armenian drug dealer, Tom, Ana and Mariah flee across the Turkish outback and the Syrian plain, racing for sanctuary in Jordan. &#707;&#707;&#707; Accepting a packet of stolen diamonds isn't Tom's only difficult choice. His first wife, Seline, walked away, leaving him hurt and confused. Should he trust a relationship with another woman? Perhaps not, but if so, Ana and Mariah offer stunningly different options. &#707;&#707;&#707; Armenia itself is a character in the story. Once a sprawling empire spanning much of the modern Middle East, Armenia was conquered by the Romans, absorbed by the Byzantines and the Ottomans, victimized by a 20th century genocide and submerged behind the Iron Curtain of the Soviet Union. Now, an independent Armenia must struggle to find its footing in the family of nations. &#707;&#707;&#707; Precious gems, the rarest of gold coins and antique jewelry are the tangible evidence of a forgotten empire. An Armenian Affair owes a distant kinship to Gerald A. Browne's Hot Siberian and Martin Cruz Smith's Gorky Park and Red Square. Its history flows from Franz Werfel's classic Forty Days at Musa Dagh and a host of scholarly studies tracing the roots of Armenia back to Noah and the Great Flood, yet An Armenian Affair stands alone as a novel of Armenia in the throes of rebirth as an independent nation.

A big shout out to my long-timed friend, Anthony Moore.He has been homeless for over 9 years and he is the most talented person you will ever meet. He helped me set the design on the card that we made through the historic Boston Library in Copley and then we took it over to Staples through his computer and they perfected it. He is one of the nicest people you will ever meet. One of the pastors managing Boston Warm introduced Anthony to me who also goes to Boston Warm and has talked about his talents. We immediately hit it off and the rest is history.This is a shout to my favorite pizza place in Boston-The Pizza Stop! Located at 851 Harrison Avenue in Boston! I am good friends with the manager and his wife as well as the staffs there and a constant customer. I love their pizza! And then my second favorite pizza place is the New York Pizza located at 435 Massachusetts Avenue in Boston and they're also located at 224 Tremont Street which is closer to me! I highly recommend them both!

The words of wisdom in this book are practical and doable. These words are not pie in the sky when you die. However, these words do address the issues of death, as well as the issues of living. The words of wisdom in this book cover the entire area of life; including marriage, raising children, religion, people to people relationships, etc. The words of wisdom in this book will tell you how to use wisdom to increase your sense of fulfillment, and deal with the issues of life. People are hungry for wisdom. This book will help satisfy that hunger. Experience is a good teacher of wisdom, but it is a harsh teacher. It makes you take the test before it teaches you the lesson. As noted in this book, wisdom is the principle thing, so get wisdom. But in your getting, get also understanding. There are two types of wisdom. God's wisdom and the world's wisdom. This book addresses both of these. People are the only creatures that God make in his own image. So, it stands to reason that people are dear to God's heart. And it stands to reason that God would want people to have wisdom.
