Book Description
kira-kira (kee' ra kee' ra): glittering; shining Glittering. That's how Katie Takeshima's sister, Lynn, makes everything seem. The sky is kira-kira because its color is deep but see-through at the same time. The sea is kira-kira for the same reason. And so are people's eyes. When Katie and her family move from a Japanese community in Iowa to the Deep South of Georgia, it's Lynn who explains to her why people stop them on the street to stare. And it's Lynn who, with her special way of viewing the world, teaches Katie to look beyond tomorrow. But when Lynn becomes desperately ill, and the whole family begins to fall apart, it is up to Katie to find a way to remind them all that there is always something glittering -- kira-kira -- in the future. Luminous in its persistence of love and hope, Kira-Kira is Cynthia Kadohata's stunning debut in middle-grade fiction.

Book Description
What happens when a girl with the worst luck ever meets a guy with all the luck in the world? Risk assessor Charley Claybourne has always known her luck pretty much... well, sucks. Getting soaked in lactose-free chocolate milk thanks to a hunkylicious, blue-eyed stranger is bad enough. But discovering that he’s her new billionaire client, and could make or break her career? Oh hi, it’s me, the icing on top of the world’s most craptastic cake. Now Charley has to decide if Chris Lachlan, Disney prince made flesh, is a good risk to be CEO of his family’s billion-dollar corporation. You know, if a reckless adrenaline junkie—who eats the unhealthiest food known to man and has dated cartel princesses, thieves, and actual spies—could ever qualify as the “good” kind of risk. But Charley isn’t immune to the charms of this hot, trouble-seeking billionaire. And as luck would have it, she’ll have to choose between trashing her career... or falling head-over-broken-heels for the biggest risk of her life. Each book in the Winning the Billionaire series is STANDALONE: * 69 Million Things I Hate About You * The Billionaire's Unexpected Baby * Scotland or Bust * Pushing His Luck
