Burn For You: A Christmas Sweet Romance

Category : Fiction

Pages : 331
Book Description
Mia Hathaway was excited for Christmas with her fiancé and his daughter. She didn't expect to find herself single before December rolled around. Rather than spend the holiday with her parents or, worse, with her brother and his growing family, Mia decides that this year she's going to spend Christmas alone. Her flat holds too many reminders that she's nearly thirty and alone for the first time in two years, so she leaves it behind with the vow to treat herself to a break from reality. After all, what could be a better way to get over heartbreak than a week of solitude in a remote Scottish cabin? Perhaps a one night stand with a man in a Santa hat and a tinsel scarf. It's a one time thing, Mia tells herself, a lapse of judgement. But it's not one she can escape. When a blizzard snows them in, Mia finds herself forced to address the man in her bed — and everything she's been suppressing for two months. It's far from the Christmas she planned, but it just might not be as blue as she thought.

An unforgettable debut novel about family secrets, falling apart, and coming together. Dublin 1996. Joan Egan lives an enviable life. She and her husband, Martin, and daughter, Carmel, are thriving in Dublin at the dawn of an economic boom. But everything changes when Joan receives a letter from Emma, the daughter who she and Martin gave up for adoption thirty years before, asking for a life-or-death favor. While Joan grapples with the guilt over giving up her baby long ago, she must confront her present as the cracks in her marriage become impossible to ignore and simmering tension with Carmel boils over. Meanwhile, Carmel and Emma must come to terms with the perceived sins of their mother, to imagine a future for their family before it is too late.

Pages : 188
Book Description
A collection of 5 joy-filled and beautifully illustrated stories, each following a different dog as they go out on their adventures. Contained within are: Bounding Bella Spreads A Smile Awesome George Saves The Day Poorly Pati And The Friendly Ghost Clever Rose And The Mucky Beach Lovely Leela Finds A Family. These stories have been inspired by true events and as well as being fun, each story has a heart-warming message, full of kindness and good values which will touch both children and adults alike. These stories show children there is always someway to help others as well as sending out a message that it is ok in life to sometimes be scared of things and that others will be there to help them overcome their fears. Suitable for a wide range of children. Younger children can enjoy and engage with the tempo of the rhymes and the pictures, whilst these stories can bring parents and older children together over interesting discussion topics. The stories have been inspired by the true events of a young dog, Leela, who was found abandoned in Spain and her puppies. They have been beautifully illustrated by the wonderful Kim Prior whose time and creativity has brought these stories to life. What others have to say: "The morals written about in the books mean that they have such a wide age range. From those that appreciate the images and tempo of the rhyming, to the discussions of the issues raised in each story. These are fantastic books!" Amy, mother (child 2yrs) "Congratulations. Job well done! These stories are very "readable" - and that's the grandmother who is speaking. These stories are full of love, joy and wit! Clever stories - some children books are so dull compared to these ones. The stories are balanced, full of kindness and good values. Texts are beautifully written - full of poetry and nice rhymes - they work as well for the adult who reads the story to the kid. Stories sound "real" and taken from lived experience. I LOVED THEM!" Michele, grandmother (children 6yrs & 4yrs) "The illustrations are gorgeous, and honestly that is where my daughter engaged the most. Because of her age, she absolutely favours books that we can read to her with a bit of rhythm and beat so these stories are great. Gosh... they are delightful! I love the stories, and there are some extremely wholesome life lessons in there." Gordon, father (child 2yrs) "We read all of the stories in one evening at the girls' request. They wanted to hear about all of the dogs. The pictures are great and the stories evoked interesting discussions with the girls" Rob, father (children 8yrs & 6yrs) "The books are really great! And it's always fab to have a range of similar books because then the little ones get a feel for the type of story and style of writing and there is still lots of variety rather than reading one book again and again! I personally love rhyming because once you've read a story a couple of times, little ones can almost predict the next line (or at least the last word) as they listen to the rhyming and remember- Evie loved this about the books!" Amelia, mother (child 2yrs) "I really like the fact that they rhyme and also, the topics make them very suitable to support areas inside PSHE (personal, social and health education) in school." Rachel, mother & primary school teacher

An accidental dog swap unleashes an unexpected love match in this new romantic comedy from New York Times bestselling author Julia London. Carly Kennedy's life is in a spiral. She is drowning in work, her divorced parents are going through their midlife crises, and somehow Carly's sister convinces her to foster Baxter--a basset hound rescue with a bad case of the blues. When Carly comes home late from work one day to discover that the dog walker has accidentally switched out Baxter for another perkier, friendlier basset hound, she has reached the end of her leash. When Max Sheffington finds a depressed male basset hound in place of his cheerful Hazel, he is bewildered. But when cute, fiery Carly arrives on his doorstep, he is intrigued. He was expecting the dog walker, not a pretty woman with firm ideas about dog discipline. And Carly was not expecting a handsome, bespectacled man to be feeding her dog mac and cheese. Baxter is besotted with Hazel, and Carly realizes she may have found the key to her puppy’s happiness. For his sake, she starts to spend more time with Hazel and Max, until she begins to understand the appeal of falling for your polar opposite.
