*** AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER NOW*** ‘A charming, funny, and unique twist on challenging the laws and traditions that shape us’ Abby Jimenez, New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly Maya Mirza is so convinced she’s unlucky in love and life that she’s come up with a list of laws to explain it. Most importantly… Law #1: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. But that’s about to change. Maya’s headed to Pakistan for an arranged marriage with a handsome, successful doctor who ticks all the right boxes. First comes marriage, then comes love – she’s sure of it. Except… Law #6: Trips are never smooth sailing. From the start, Maya's journey is riddled with disaster, and the cynical lawyer seated next to her on the plane isn’t helping. Until a storm leaves them stranded in Switzerland, and she and Sarfaraz become unlikely travel companions. And maybe something more… Law #4: When you think you’re lucky, think again. Before long, Maya’s wondering whether she’s just experienced the ultimate in misfortune – finally meeting the right man a few days before she has to marry someone else. But if she’s willing to bend some rules, this detour could take her somewhere wonderfully unexpected. 'Just as sweet as the romance that blossoms between Maya and Sarfaraz is the satisfaction of watching Maya learn to prioritize her own desires.

A new mother must adjust to a life she never asked for—and learns that sometimes the worst thing that can happen is exactly what you’ve been waiting for—in this spirited novel from the New York Times bestselling author of How to Walk Away and Things You Save in a Fire “Charming . . . cleverly told and uncommonly appealing.”—People Very pregnant and not quite married, Jenny Harris doesn’t mind that she and her live-in fiancé, Dean, accidentally started their family a little earlier than planned. But Dean is acting distant, and the night he runs out for cigarettes and doesn’t come back, he demotes himself from future husband to sperm donor. And the very next day, Jenny goes into labor. In the months that follow, Jenny plunges into a life she never anticipated: single motherhood. At least with the sleep deprivation, sore boobs, and fits of crying (both hers and the baby’s), there’s not much time to dwell on her broken heart. Then things start looking up: Jenny learns how to do everything one-handed, makes friends in a mommy group, and even gets to know a handsome, helpful neighbor. But Dean is never far from Jenny’s thoughts or, it turns out, her doorstep, and in the end she must choose between the old life she thought she wanted and the new life she’s been lucky to find.

Languages : en
Pages : 528
Book Description
“Now come the Shapers of the ancient days To change all to dust or gold. Like a golden Sun is revealed by the passing Clouds, so these secrets now unfold.” DreamBook shares the mythology of The Prooimia, a tale of a little girl who meets an Ælve queen and is told that a son with great power would be incarnated through her. The Prooimia continues into her adult life, and regales with stories about her translocation inside of trees, her encounter with the Hobgoblin Horde, the death of her husband, and her abduction and encounter with a Wolvlinga. This encounter leads to a great battle between four Ælves and thousands of Waelwulfas, Kwizir and Melchizedecks. DreamBook also contains The Book after the Prooimia – Jaddamiah Jabberwocky. The story continues with a certain Jaddamiah Jabberwocky, who sets off from the same village as Hyperion (the little girl from The Prooimia), to fight the Meline Dragon with a glaive that is not his own, in a town he has never been to. It is a most fascinating tale, filled with magickal creatures, monsters and dwarves, a dragon, nymphs and dryads. It speaks of dwhëels who save the day and climaxes with the Battle of qêl Dmâ, where thousands are slain and the sibling shapeshifters – Búbgaz ‘the Destroyer’ and Búbkalu ‘he who makes those who run stand still’ – exact the will of their Bele Kaadom ‘he who overpowers with doom’. More importantly, it is a tale of the mighty power of the Ælves. The Ælves!
