Book Description
Join a group of friends – and friends of friends – as they find their perfect kinky matches in this complete M/M romance series. Winter Wonders: Jonathan Ashe plans to spend Christmas alone on the opposite coast, holing up to heal his broken heart. But when his car breaks down in the snow, he's rescued by Cooper Kincaid, who convinces Jon to pretend to be his boyfriend for the holidays. As Jon and Cooper they spend time together, fake feelings start to turn real. Can Cooper convince Jon to take another chance on love? Taming Tristan: Seth Jackson is bet a life-changing sum of money that he can’t tame the notorious Tristan Taylor by Valentine's Day. Despite Tristan's snarky exterior, Seth becomes captivated during their sparring sessions. Can Seth win Tristan over and keep the bet a secret? Or will gambling with Tristan's heart destroy any chance for love? Star Spanked: Celebrity chef and Englishman Sebastian Fox meets American model Ezra Whitfield in an anonymous adults-only club. Despite their age gap, they find themselves drawn to each other. But when Ezra wins a job at Sebastian’s new restaurant, will they be able to balance work and play to find happiness together? Haunted Hearts: Oliver West finds himself drawn to the arrogant, critical Lord Arden, despite a disastrous first weekend as the aristocrat’s service sub. As they spend more time together, Lord Arden’s icy exterior begins to melt, but he’ll be returning to England after a Halloween masquerade. Can Ollie persuade Lord Arden to share his haunted heart, or is he going to end up being ghosted? Champagne Charade: Tyler Blakely’s best friend is getting married on New Year's Eve, but Tyler never got around to admitting that he broke up with his boyfriend – who is still a plus-one on the guest list. So when Tyler’s current hookup and Dom-on-demand, Damon Kirk, suggests he could stand in as the ex, Tyler jumps at the chance to save face. It's only supposed to be pretend, but as they spend time together, Tyler and Damon start to feel something more. The clock is ticking down - but what if their charade isn't just an act?

Teens with the Courage to Give
Author: Jackie Waldman
Publisher: Mango Media
ISBN: 1609252594
Category : Body, Mind & Spirit
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
Lately, troubled teens have been dominating the headlines. But there are other stories that deserve the spotlight--stories about the many teenagers who have dedicated themselves to important, socially useful volunteer work and who will lead their generation toward a more hopeful tomorrow. The fourth in Conari Press' "Call to Action" series, Teens with the Courage to Give profiles thirty amazing young people throughout the United States and Canada who overcame great personal odds to reach out and help others while healing themselves in the process. Each has founded or is linked to a nonprofit organization that is also profiled in the book, to encourage other teens to embrace volunteerism. In these inspiring pages, to name just a few of these heroic teenagers, you'll meet an amputee who runs in the Paralympics and spurs others on with his inner resolve; the son of a cancer patient who created support groups around the country for kids with sick parents; a girl who helped her mother and younger sister as they died of aids and who is now an aids awareness and prevention volunteer; and one of the students from the Littleton, Colorado, shooting who has gone on to create a teen drop-in center. Through their courageous first-person stories, these teens show that they are part of the solution to what ails today's society. Includes an extensive resource guide of volunteer opportunities and a classroom/group discussion guide.
