Book Description
Hey there, it's Sorcha O'Connor. You might know me as the infamous #TheLeftoverBride. Before you ask, no, that hashtag doesn't exactly bring me joy, but it sure makes for a gripping tale, right? Now, are you ready to fall head over heels with what I like to call a “Hallmark movie’s steamier cousin”? If your heart does a little dance for grumpy yet irresistibly sweet and sexy book boyfriends, and holiday rom-coms with second chances sprinkled in, then honey, this romantic comedy is tailor-made for you. Last year, my runaway groom dashed my dreams and almost bankrupted our family bakery, but this year, things are going to change. I've got a to-do list as long as Ryan Sawyer's—my high school sweetheart's—broad shoulders, and I'm determined to tick off every item before the New Year's Eve ball drops. Speaking of Ryan, he's back in town. His grin still makes my heart race, but I refuse to let it affect me. He didn't stick around after high school, so why should he now? But, as fate would have it, I accidentally let slip on national TV that he's helping me with my holiday to-do list. Let the drama begin! Are you ready for a second chance holiday romcom that's as steamy as it is sweet, and as real as it is romantic? Do you love small-town romance with relatable characters and a true-to-life OCD representation? Then join me on this wild ride in "The Leftover Bride", now available on Google Play Books. Experience love, heartbreak, and the power of second chances in this standalone novel that's perfect for fans of Meghan Quinn, Emily Henry, and Lauren Landish. And remember, there's no such thing as cliffhangers in real life, so rest assured, there won't be any in this book either. Happy reading!

Book Description
A second chance romance set during the holiday season in a small town on Maryland's Eastern Shore: full of laughter and heartwarming moments, checklists, family dynamics, a stubborn cat, and a rescue dog. All Sorcha O'Connor wants for Christmas is for her life to turn into a Hallmark movie--but sexier. Ryan Sawyer has a few things on his wishlist. First, he wants to stay away from Swans Cove. Second, he wants his NHL career back. And third, he wants Sorcha. Always has, always will. When wedding dress designer Sorcha O'Connor got stranded at the altar and went viral as #TheLeftoverBride, she lost everything: her fiancé, her thriving business, her glowing reputation, and her dreams. To forget the upcoming first anniversary of that fateful day, Sorcha is ticking items off her "31 Things to Do Before the 31st" list and working day and night to get her life back on track. Not on her list? Falling for her former best friend --at one point more than best friend--hockey star Ryan Sawyer. Especially since he's now known as the #HockeyHottie; Sorcha's got enough hashtags for a lifetime. Ryan Sawyer skated out of Swans Cove right out of high school. And since then, he stuck to the one item on his wishlist he could control. He busted his ass, making sure he always had the perfect excuse for avoiding Swans Cove: hockey. But thanks to his injuries, rumors about his uncertain future at the Tacoma Angels, and his mother's birthday, he's back for a quick visit. His agent and the team's publicist were crystal clear--Ryan's got to avoid stirring up trouble or risk losing his spot on the team. But he can't stop thinking about Sorcha, the redhead who knows him better than even his therapist. Ryan wasn't there for her when she needed him most, and for that, she might want to shred him with her dressmaker's shears, though... Maybe he could just pass by and say hello? When Sorcha's former #RunawayGroom becomes the Most Coveted Bachelor in America, virtual eyes focus on Sorcha again. This time, Ryan's not going to bolt--even when Sorcha blurts out on national TV that both she and Ryan are working on their so-called "Happy Lists"...together. Will the spotlight finally work in Sorcha and Ryan's favor? Or will their past--and their hashtags--get in the way of their Happily Ever After?

Book Description
‘Scattered with inspiring life-stories of courageous women.’ The Guardian In the early years of the People’s Republic, the Communist Party sought to transform gender relations. Yet those gains have been steadily eroded in China’s post-socialist era. Contrary to the image presented by China’s media, women in China have experienced a dramatic rollback of rights and gains relative to men. In Leftover Women, Leta Hong Fincher exposes shocking levels of structural discrimination against women, and the broader damage this has caused to China’s economy, politics, and development.

Book Description
Factory Girls meets The Vagina Monologues in this fascinating narrative on China’s single women—and why they could be the source of its economic future. Forty years ago, China enacted the one-child policy, only recently relaxed. Among many other unintended consequences, it resulted in both an enormous gender imbalance—with a predicted twenty million more men than women of marriage age by 2020—and China’s first generations of only-daughters. Given the resources normally reserved for boys, these girls were pushed to study, excel in college, and succeed in careers, as if they were sons. Now living in an economic powerhouse, enough of these women have decided to postpone marriage—or not marry at all—to spawn a label: "leftovers." Unprecedentedly well-educated and goal-oriented, they struggle to find partners in a society where gender roles have not evolved as vigorously as society itself, and where new professional opportunities have made women less willing to compromise their careers or concede to marriage for the sake of being wed. Further complicating their search for a mate, the vast majority of China’s single men reside in and are tied to the rural areas where they were raised. This makes them geographically, economically, and educationally incompatible with city-dwelling “leftovers,” who also face difficulty in partnering with urban men, given the urban men’s general preference for more dutiful, domesticated wives. Part critique of China’s paternalistic ideals, part playful portrait of the romantic travails of China’s trailblazing women and their well-meaning parents who are anxious to see their daughters snuggled into traditional wedlock, Roseann Lake’s Leftover in China focuses on the lives of four individual women against a backdrop of colorful anecdotes, hundreds of interviews, and rigorous historical and demographic research to show how these "leftovers" are the linchpin to China’s future.

Book Description
VINTAGE WEDDINGS takes a close look at the key periods, diverse styles, iconoclastic designers, significant ceremonies and cultural influences in wedding fashions. Organised chronologically, this book shows the reader how to recognize the silhouette that will best suit their body shape, identify luxurious fabrics, contrast various styles, and to source appropriate accessories, from gloves and shoes to flowers, veils, jewellery and table decorations. Throughout the book, individual pieces that epitomize the defining characteristic of each designer or decade are analysed in detail. Traditionally the wedding dress is the most expensive garment that a woman will ever buy. Increasingly, however, prospective brides are looking for something other than the customary costly and formulaic gown. This has given rise an increasing demand for vintage wedding gowns; one that both expresses a personal style and also provides a narrative. A vintage wedding dress can provide the theme and style of the entire celebration. A dress of frills and lace, indicative of the Edwardian era, may be the inspiration for a summer picnic with men in blazers and boaters and women wielding parasols, while afternoon tea served in Art Deco china to the sound of a jazz band may provide the perfect background for a floral printed tea-dress from the 1930s. This book is for those interested in collecting a acquiring all aspects of authentic vintage pieces relating to the wedding ceremony, and also for prospective brides who are buying new, but are looking for sources of inspiration.
