From Butch Meily, trusted public relations strategist to Reginald Lewis, the history-making African American Mergers & Acquisitions dealmaker, comes an eye-opening business narrative. "From Manila to Wall Street" tells two stories: the first includes daring corporate takeovers, an exorbitant global lifestyle, and the fatal brain tumor that claimed Lewis’s life at age 50. Lewis struggled to reach the top, only to see his attempt to become the first African American-controlled company listed on the New York Stock Exchange fail and his Hamptons mansion burn to the ground. The second story is that of a young Filipino immigrant at Lewis’s side. Meily reaches the highest tier of corporate public relations in New York, making a million dollars in one year. Yet, after his wife leaves him, Meily discovers that power, glory, and riches can bring loneliness and isolation. He began his relationship with Lewis as an employee and became his closest adviser and first-hand witness to the tormented, solitary man behind the image of a wildly successful takeover king.
San Francisco, Spring of 1900: Charmian Kittredge is an ambitious woman of twenty-nine, single, and unafraid to challenge the conventions of polite society. Her life will be forever changed when she accompanies her literary editor aunt to a luncheon to meet a young writer, Jack London, fresh from the Klondike and ready for fame. They experience instant chemistry.
Jack is charmed to discover that Charmian’s intellect is as compelling as her beauty, and the attraction builds with each encounter, culminating in an invitation to a picnic date—one that Jack will break with the barest of notes announcing his marriage to another.
Yet social circles conspire to bring them back together, and the pair discover that time has done nothing to quell the attraction they feel. Charmian chooses to be in Jack’s life no matter the consequences—becoming his friend, confidante, editor, lover—and eventually The Second Mrs. London.
Sometimes you must believe in yourself and your dream. And in thousand-year-old prophecies. The Song of Teaching has been sung. The people of Lrakira and Teramar have discovered they are not who they thought they were and begin to embrace their shared identity. While all the others are awash in self-discovery and sharing, Renloret is faced with the monumental task of deciphering the clues to the hidden location of their shared home planet from millennial-old cave paintings and tapestries. If his calculations are off by even a smudge or a thread, the foretold Reunion will not happen and the people of two planets will never know their true origins or their possible future. Will he succeed? And will he overcome his doubts and fears about himself so he can become who he is destined to be?
