Sister Wife
Author: Shelley Hrdlitschka
Publisher: Orca Book Publishers
ISBN: 155469714X
Category : Young Adult Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
In the isolated rural community of Unity, the people of The Movement live a simple life guided by a set of religious principles and laws that are unique to them. Polygamy is the norm, strict obedience is expected and it is customary for young girls to be assigned to much older husbands. Celeste was born and raised in Unity, yet she struggles to fit in. Perhaps it's because of Taviana, the girl who has come to live with them and entertains Celeste with forbidden stories, or Jon, the young man she has clandestine meetings with, or maybe it's the influence of Craig, the outsider she meets on the beach. Whatever it is, she struggles to accept her ordained life. At fifteen she is repulsed at the thought of being assigned to an older man and becoming a sister wife, and she knows for certain she is not cut out to raise children. She wants something more for herself, yet feels powerless to change her destiny because rebelling would bring shame upon her family. Celeste watches as Taviana leaves Unity, followed by Jon, and finally Craig, the boy who has taught her to think "outside the box." Although she is assigned to a caring man, his sixth wife, she is desperately unhappy. How will Celeste find her way out of Unity? Torn from the headlines and inspired by current events, Sister Wife is a compelling portrait of a community where the laws of the outside world are ignored and where individuality is punished.

Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
For decades, polygamous families have been forced to hide their lifestyle. But this first-ever memoir of a polygamous family is a riveting inside look at a world we can hardly imagine, revealing the extraordinary workings of one family’s day-to-day life. In this intimate story, the Dargers explain why they chose this path despite the pressures of keeping their relationships secret and the jealousy and personal challenges that naturally ensue; why they believe polygamy should be an accepted lifestyle; and, ultimately, why they hope that by revealing their way of life in public, laws that criminalize polygamy might change. Despite the risk of legal action, the Dargers know that it’s time to counteract Hollywood’s sensational interpretation and the general public’s misunderstanding of polygamy with the truth.

Sister Wives, Surrogates and Sex Workers
Author: Angela Campbell
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 131705461X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 259
Book Description
Did she choose that?’ Or, more normatively, ’Why would she choose that?’ This book critiques and offers an alternative to these questions, which have traditionally framed law and policy discussions circulating around controversial genderized practices. It examines the simplicity and incompleteness of choice-based rhetoric and of presumptions that women’s conduct is shaped, in an absolute way, either by choice or by coercion. This book develops an analytical framework that aims to discern the meaning and value that women may ascribe to morally ambiguous practices. An analysis of law’s approach to polygamy, surrogacy and sex work, particularly in Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia, provides a basis for evaluating the choice-coercion binary and for contemplating alternate modes for assessing, from a law and policy standpoint, the palatability of social practices that appear pernicious to women. Weaving together interdisciplinary research, an innovative analytical framework for assessing choices ostensibly harmful to women, and a critique of the legal rules governing such choices, this book bears relevance for students, scholars, practicing jurists and policymakers seeking a richer understanding of conduct that moves women to the margins of law and society.

Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
TLC's Counting On breakout stars Jeremy and Jinger Vuolo share their love story, a behind-the-scenes glimpse into their lives together, and the hope that drives them every day. Jinger Vuolo did not have what you'd call a typical childhood. The sixth child of Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar's nineteen, she grew up with the bright lights of television crews in her home, filming the hit TLC show 19 Kids and Counting. Jinger has always been a fan favorite, and now she and her husband Jeremy are the breakout stars of the show's sequel, Counting On. In The Hope We Hold, Jeremy and Jinger Vuolo share the highs and lows of their love story. They open up about the early days of getting to know one another, their long-distance relationship, and the many sleepless nights of their time as new parents. But throughout all their stories, just below the surface, weaving together every triumph and trial of their lives, is the silver thread of hope. Though they don't pretend to have all the answers, they can promise that there is hope in Christ for every person in every walk of life. There is an inheritance of glory, a life richer than we can imagine, if we only walk with Him.

Sisterwives for The Orc
Author: Amanda Milo
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 290
Book Description
This is Jumanji meets Elder Scrolls meets medieval romance with a blacksmith Orc. Basically a fantasy union for the ages. It'd be downright perfect... Except for the fact that my new husband comes with a side of three other wives. I spend five bucks to play an old arcade game that promises adventurers a chance to choose their very own epic romance. I'm transported to another reality. A realm where three Orc women inform me that I've been added to their family, and I'm about to marry their husband. That's right. They share a husband. These Orcs think I'm about to become their sisterwife. Obviously, I have to escape them. There's absolutely no way anyone could be happy living like this forever... right? Note: This is a 78K story that tells the tale of a woman trapped in a wild game reality like Jumanji (and a bit like Zoltar from Big). Romance readers (and '90s-era gamers and Skyrim fans) will find little easter eggs here and there! EXCERPT: "Here's the thing. I'm like the most monogamous person ever--and I expect the man I'm with to be the same. Monogamous. So your husband already being married?" I transfer my stare to each one of the trio in a very pointed fashion. "This is a huge problem for me." "You've come with no money, I expect?" My credit card should still be in my pocket, but it's less than useless here. I shake my head, feeling sick. She shrugs sadly. "You might get some coin for your jewelry, but not enough to survive on." She eyes me up and down. "You'll end up selling yourself, unless you are skilled in a trade and can sell other services?" Dread filling my insides like icy cold water, I shake my head again. She gives me a gentle smile. "Then our house is not only your most decent option, it's also simply a good option. Roarg will treat you very well. You'll see. Give him a chance." Panting, I sputter, "B-but I--" Ulda has had enough though. Looking no sweeter even though she's rocking a sleeping baby on her shoulder, she points to a set of stairs flanked by freaking tree trunks. Beside the stairs is a door. "Go. Take off those otherlander clothes. You will bathe--" "But I don't want to marry your husband!" I cry. Ulda sighs like I'm being a real pain--and she cuffs me on the ear, again, too fast for me to duck or block, making me howl. "You will wash. You will get dressed in something fine. And then you will climb in his bed and excite Roarg with your strangeness and you will please yourselves until morning. Do I make myself clear?"
