Book Description
Being a woman with dwarfism is a very very unique experience. From feeling unsafe in what would seem like the most basic situations, to daily microaggressions with the points/stares/comments to climbing grocery store shelves to get things. It is our hope this book shows some of the challenges we have faced, but also how resilient we all are not in spite of our disability but because of it. This collection of stories from contributing authors: Bobbie Singletary, Samyuktha Neeraja, Kate Moe, Kristina Hiller, Samantha Hansen, Meg Greenlee, Chantell Butler and Chantell Butler shows first hand experiences that different women with various forms of dwarfism have experienced and overcome. The first in the "A Little Perspective" series, an advocacy project looking to bring equality, equity, advocacy and accomodations through various awareness pieces. It is our hope that the Little Ladies editions bring a glimpse into their unique struggles so yu and others you know can be the best ally you can be.

Book Description
You belong to Papa now. Nineteen-year-old Daisy, Talcott House's resident eavesdropper, snoop and prankster, is about to marry Lord Edward Kensington. The unlikely couple fell in love when Daisy literally landed at his feet on the day he was supposed to wed another. Daisy is as surprised as anyone that a man as handsome and important as Lord Kensington would wish to marry a plain girl such as her. But, when she looks into his eyes and he touches her hand, a warm tingle moves through her and takes her breath away. After a period of darkness and despair, Edward decides to take a wife. For reasons known only to himself, he eschews the crush and crowds of the London season and seeks the assistance of Miss Wickersham in finding a bride amongst the Little Ladies of Talcott House. He asks only that she be biddable and obedient. Once they are wed, Daisy learns marital relations are even better than the sweet rapture she has read about in the romance novels she used to swipe from Miss Wickersham's private library. With Papa's loving guidance--and firm hand--Daisy blossoms and begins to hope she and her papa will have their own happily ever after. Except for that one, deepest, darkest, most horrible secret which she must never reveal, even to her loving papa. Publisher's Note: Like all the books in the Little Ladies of Talcott House series, Papa's Joy can be read as a standalone novel.

Ever since her arrival at Talcott House, Cammie has dreamed of the day she would belong to a papa of her very own. A husband to love and protect her for the rest of her days. Lord Alexander Cavendish has longed for a little girl to spoil and cherish. When Miss Wickersham introduces him to nineteen-year-old Cammie, it's love at first sight.

In Papa's arms...and bed...Cammie finally experiences the love and safety she has craved.

Book Description
From the author of A Witch in Time comes a magical story spanning from Jazz Age Paris to modern-day America of family secrets, sacrifice, and lost love set against the backdrop of a mysterious circus. Paris, 1925: To enter the Secret Circus is to enter a world of wonder—a world where women weave illusions of magnificent beasts, carousels take you back in time, and trapeze artists float across the sky. Bound to her family's circus, it's the only world Cecile Cabot knows until she meets a charismatic young painter and embarks on a passionate affair that could cost her everything. Virginia, 2004: Lara Barnes is on top of the world until her fiancé disappears on their wedding day. When her desperate search for answers unexpectedly leads to her great-grandmother’s journals, Lara is swept into a story of a dark circus and ill-fated love. Soon secrets about Lara’s family history begin to come to light, revealing a curse that has been claiming payment from the women in her family for generations. A curse that might be tied to her fiancé’s mysterious disappearance Praise for The Ladies of the Secret Circus: "At times decadent and macabre, The Ladies of the Secret Circus is a mesmerizing tale of love, treachery, and depraved magic percolating through four generations of Cabot women." —Luanne G. Smith, author of The Vine Witch "Fans of Erin Morgenstern’s The Night Circus will love this page-turning story of dark magic, star-crossed love, and familial sacrifice." —Publishers Weekly (starred review) "Ambitious and teeming with magic, Sayers creates a fascinating mix of art, The Belle Époque, and more than a little murder.” —Erika Swyler, author of The Book of Speculation For more from Constance Sayers, check out A Witch in Time.
