As the granddaughter and only descendent of the leader of the Midnight Pack, Isla Bane has experienced an unusual upbringing.

But the future she has always imagined, as the Alpha of her pack, becomes nothing more than fantasy when her grandfather interrupts her morning coffee to tell her she is to be mated to Axel Griffith – the heir to the wealthy Shadow Pack.

However, when Isla is dancing with her surprisingly attractive future mate, and trying to turn off her secret ability to read minds, the gathering is attacked by a group of organized Crazed – the oldest and most dangerous Otherworlders who had

But Isla is keeping her own secrets, namely that Rattenru, the leader of the Fay in the otherworldly Realm she’s sworn to protect, is her maternal grandfather. And when Rattenru visits her to reveal that she’s pregnant right at a time when she’s about to face the greatest threat the worlds have ever seen, their growing love is put at risk.

Between their budding romance, life-altering secrets, and the threat that has found its way into their own home and pack, it will take all the strength they possess if Isla and Axel want to do their sworn duties and protect both their packs and the world order.

Leadership With A Purpose:

Motivating Your Engineers

Effectively motivating, inspiring and leading engineering professionals is about putting people first.

Here's how you do it.

In today’s world, effectively motivating and managing highly intelligent technology professionals is challenging. Around the world, people are more educated, informed and highly social about their careers and employers, making retention and employee happiness a full-time job. In fact, companies are beginning to recognize these impacts and have begun employing more “PeopleOps” type human resources professionals to tackle this head-on.

The reality is that most engineers don't leave jobs, they leave managers. While having a swanky and modern human resources strategy helps keep the company on the cutting edge of benefits and overall happiness, it does not solve the root problem – having good managers that motivate engineering teams.

In the remote and global workforce that we all participate in, establishing a healthy work culture with safe boundaries is an ongoing task that cannot be forced. Add in the complexities of global cultural differences and political phenomena; it’s every leader’s nightmare to manage well.

This book will cover what makes an engineering culture, how to cultivate it, and how to build trust with your teams.

After reading this book, you can effectively motivate, inspire and lead engineering professionals of all levels that are happy and loyal to you.

With years of experience within the software engineering and technology sectors, Robert Murphy has become an expert in building healthy company cultures and motivating engineering professionals.

Once deemed "The King of Culture" by a previous employer, he is passionate about helping other technology leaders on their mission to build highly effective teams. In this debut book, Robert describes his proven methods and provides a roadmap to successful leadership with a purpose!
