Описание: From "the king of Christmas fiction" (The New York Times), a complete set of bestselling author Richard Paul Evans's three novels in the bestselling Mistletoe Collection: The Mistletoe Promise, The Mistletoe Inn, and The Mistletoe Secret. In The Mistletoe Promise, Elise Dutton is alone, broken, and distrustful three years after her husband cheated on her and they ended up divorced. Then, one November day, a stranger approaches Elise in the mall food court with a proposition. For the next eight weeks--until Christmas day--he suggests they pretend to be a couple. The lonely Elise surprises herself by agreeing to the idea. But just as she begins to find joy again, her long-held secret threatens to unravel the emerging relationship...and she might not be the only one with secrets. At just thirty-two, Kimberly Rossi, in The Mistletoe Inn, has had her heart broken more times than she wants to remember. Dreading another holiday alone, she signs up for The Mistletoe Retreat, a nine-day writing retreat in Burlington, Vermont to fulfill her dream. In one of her sessions Kimberly meets another aspiring writer, Zeke, an intelligent man with a wry wit. As Zeke helps her to discover why her books fail to live up to their potential she begins to wonder if he's really talking more about her life than her literature. But as she grows closer to him, she realizes that Zeke has his own darkness, a past he's unwilling to talk about. Finally, in The Mistletoe Secret, twenty-nine-year-old Kelly Arrington is at a low point in life. Briefly married, her husband abandoned her before the birth of their stillborn child. Lonely and in mourning, she copes by starting an anonymous blog. She signs each of her deeply personal posts LBH, which only she knows stands not for her initials, but for "Last Breaking Heart." Meanwhile, New York writer Tyler Richards is reading her posts. He finds himself falling for this anonymous blogger. Following a trail of clues LBH has inadvertently revealed, he tracks her down to the small town of Tribe, Alabama. He makes his way there, and begins the search for a Lisa, Lori, maybe a Luanne. Instead, he finds a woman named Kelly to help him track down the mysterious LBH.

Описание:
A different kind of matchmaker.
Many of the most dynamic public companies, from Alibaba to Facebook to Visa, and the most valuable start-ups, such as Airbnb and Uber, are matchmakers that connect one group of customers with another group of customers. Economists call matchmakers multisided platforms because they provide physical or virtual platforms for multiple groups to get together. Dating sites connect people with potential matches, for example, and ride-sharing apps do the same for drivers and riders. Although matchmakers have been around for millennia, they're becoming more and more popular--and profitable--due to dramatic advances in technology, and a lot of companies that have managed to crack the code of this business model have become today's power brokers. Don't let the flashy successes fool you, though. Starting a matchmaker is one of the toughest business challenges, and almost everyone who tries to build one, fails. In Matchmakers, David Evans and Richard Schmalensee, two economists who were among the first to analyze multisided platforms and discover their principles, and who've consulted for some of the most successful platform businesses in the world, explain how matchmakers work best in practice, why they do what they do, and how entrepreneurs can improve their chances for success. Whether you're an entrepreneur, an investor, a consumer, or an executive, your future will involve more and more multisided platforms, and Matchmakers--rich with stories from platform winners and losers--is the one book you'll need in order to navigate this appealing but confusing world.
