IF IT'S IN HIS HEART... IT'S IN HIS KISS MEET OUR HERO... Gareth St. Clair is in a bind. His father, who detests him, is determined to beggar the St. Clair estates and ruin his inheritance. Gareth's sole bequest is an old family diary, which may or may not contain the secrets of his past... and the key to his future. The problem is—it's written in Italian, of which Gareth speaks not a word. MEET OUR HEROINE... All the ton agreed: there was no one quite like Hyacinth Bridgerton. She's fiendishly smart, devilishly outspoken, and according to Gareth, probably best in small doses. But there's something about her—something charming and vexing—that grabs him and won't quite let go... MEET POOR MR. MOZART... Or don't. But rest assured, he's spinning in his grave when Gareth and Hyacinth cross paths at the annual—and annually discordant—Smythe-Smith musicale. To Hyacinth, Gareth's every word seems a dare, and she offers to translate his diary, even though her Italian is slightly less than perfect. But as they delve into the mysterious text, they discover that the answers they seek lie not in the diary, but in each other... and that there is nothing as simple—or as complicated—as a single, perfect kiss.

"Gravid! är en föräldrahandbok som skänker igenkänning, pepp, tröst, trygghet, kunskap, verktyg och nya perspektiv som i sin tur kan bidra till att skapa ett mer harmoniskt föräldraskap." BTJ Det finns ett enormt intresse för sakkunskap kring graviditet och första tiden hemma, samtidigt som det finns ett tomrum kring psykisk ohälsa vid graviditet och förlossningsvård. Gravid! innehåller både medicinsk barnmorskekompetens om graviditet och förlossning, och psykologkunskap gällande alla omvälvande känslor efter plusset på stickan. Fokus ligger inte på graviditetens olika faser, utan på det som inte finns så mycket skrivet om, som de vanligaste psykologiska funderingarna som gravida söker vård för: ångest, nedstämdhet, förlossningsrädsla och oro kring anknytningen. Författarna går också in på den fjärde trimestern, de tre första månaderna i bebisens liv som kan ses som en förlängning av graviditeten. Gravid! varvar berättelser och exempel från olika familjekonstellationer och situationer med lättillgängliga evidensbaserade faktaavsnitt.

Alternate cover edition of ASIN B09BNYYRK7 Violet is a typical, down-on-her-luck millennial: mid-twenties, over-educated and drowning in debt, on the verge of moving into her parent’s basement. When a lifeline appears in the form of a very unconventional job in neighboring Cambric Creek, she has no choice but to grab at it with both hands. Morning Glory Milking Farm offers full-time hours, full benefits, and generous pay with no experience needed . . . there’s only one catch. The clientele is Grade A certified prime beef, with the manly, meaty endowments to match. Milking minotaurs isn’t something Violet ever considered as a career option, but she’s determined to turn the opportunity into a reversal of fortune. When a stern, deep-voiced client begins to specially request her for his milking sessions, maintaining her professionalism and keeping him out of her dreams is easier said than done. Violet is resolved to make a dent in her student loans and afford name-brand orange juice, and a one-sided crush on an out-of-her-league minotaur is not a part of her plan—unless her feelings aren’t so one-sided after all. Morning Glory Milking Farm is a short human/monster romance novel, featuring a high heat slow burn with a lot of heart, and a guaranteed HEA. CWs include: cock milking, non-human anatomy, size difference, and a lot of fluid. It is the first book in the Cambric Creek monster romance series, and can be read as a standalone.
