Book Description
One party, one birthday gift, and the secret is no more… Destin We’ve been trying to keep a low profile for the last couple of weeks, ever since the weekend I mated Seb, but that’s about to be rudely disrupted. It didn’t help that I told our parents last night that Seb was sick from drinking too much booze, after they were already worried about him. And I’m not sure that my explanation of ‘sorry, it was a stomach bug, Seb doesn’t have a drinking problem’ this morning is convincing any of them. Which is bad, especially with Seb’s dad’s birthday party tonight… Seb All eyes are on me, judging my every action. Between me trying to avoid my parents, looking rough from not getting enough sleep because of stress and my younger twin brothers acting out at school, my parents are on high alert about my behaviour. It doesn’t help that I’m already feeling guilty over keeping a massive secret from them, and that I’m making others keep secrets too, which all makes the early pregnancy symptoms even worse. How am I going to survive my dad’s birthday party without giving away what’s going on? This is the fourth novella about Alpha Destin and Omega Seb in Blossoming of Fate, which takes place in the non-shifter Omegaverse Mates World and contains mpreg (male-pregnancy). This novella may include any of these elements: steamy scenes, ‘I need tissues NOW’ moments, cries of ‘why, oh, why’ and cliffhangers that make you bite your nails (and curse the author).

Book Description
One weekend together, a whole lot more problems to solve… Destin It’s been a hell of a few weeks, ever since Seb came home for fall break and we reacted to each other in ways we’ve never done before, but after last weekend, things aren’t going to get any easier. Last weekend, I just really needed to see him, so I went to visit him even though I shouldn’t have. I couldn’t stay away any longer. And then he went into heat… And then I mated him… And then everything fell apart for real… Seb Trying to figure out what to do next, how to live life as a freshly mated Omega but also a university student, it’s hard. Things aren’t easy for Omegas at university as it is, add in the fact that I’m now mated, and they will only get more complicated, almost impossible. So, I reach out to the only person I know who has personal experience with how I’m feeling, my Beta mum, hoping that she can at least give me some pointers as to what to do next. But what we find makes me even more convinced that the plans Destin keeps coming up with aren’t going to work. How am I going to break that to him? How am I going to tell him that it’s impossible? This is the third novella about Alpha Destin and Omega Seb in Blossoming of Fate, which takes place in the non-shifter Omegaverse Mates World and contains mpreg (male-pregnancy). This novella may include any of these elements: steamy scenes, ‘I need tissues NOW’ moments, cries of ‘why, oh, why’ and cliffhangers that make you bite your nails (and curse the author).

Pages : 333
Book Description
Two best friends, one Alpha, one Omega, reunite after having been apart for the first time in their lives, finding out that everything they knew about the other has changed. Are they ready to face their future? Destin The plan was that I would pick my life-long best friend Seb up from the train station, we’d have a week of wild antics as he takes a break from his university work and that life would go back to normal after that. Of course, we all know what happens to plans… Instead, the moment I catch sight of him at the station, my heart starts beating in a way that I’ve never felt before. We’ve always been close. We’ve basically grown up together, like family. But these new feelings are a different type of ‘familial’. I want to claim him. Mark him. Make him mine. I try to fight it, to stay away from him, but that only brings more trouble… Seb Being at university is the longest I’ve ever been away from my best friend, Destin. He decided to stay at home to work at his daddy’s company while I pursue a degree. It’s been quite a change from seeing each other every day to not seeing each other for weeks, but that time is finally over as I’m home for fall break. Only, once I arrive, things start to spin out of control pretty quickly. My body responds to Destin in ways that it has never done before, the way an Omega’s body responds to their fated Alpha, and it scares me. It scares me so much that I flee, trying to avoid Destin at all costs. Which only brings even more problems, as when an Alpha and an Omega recognise their fated mate, trying to deny that connection can cause real harm… This collection includes the first five novellas about Alpha Destin and Omega Seb in the Blossoming of Fate serial, My Omega’s Return, My Lover’s Resolve, My Mate’s Dilemma, My Parents’ Surprise and My Sibling’s Struggle which takes place in the non-shifter Omegaverse Mates World and contains mpreg (male-pregnancy). These novellas may include any of these elements: steamy scenes, ‘I need tissues NOW’ moments, cries of ‘why, oh, why’ and cliffhangers that make you bite your nails (and curse the author).

Book Description
BOOKER PRIZE WINNER • NATIONAL BESTSELLER • A novel that follows a middle-aged man as he contends with a past he never much thought about—until his closest childhood friends return with a vengeance: one of them from the grave, another maddeningly present. A novel so compelling that it begs to be read in a single setting, The Sense of an Ending has the psychological and emotional depth and sophistication of Henry James at his best, and is a stunning achievement in Julian Barnes's oeuvre. Tony Webster thought he left his past behind as he built a life for himself, and his career has provided him with a secure retirement and an amicable relationship with his ex-wife and daughter, who now has a family of her own. But when he is presented with a mysterious legacy, he is forced to revise his estimation of his own nature and place in the world.

The Last Cherry Blossom
Author: Kathleen Burkinshaw
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1634506944
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Following the seventieth anniversary of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, this is a new, very personal story to join Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes. Yuriko was happy growing up in Hiroshima when it was just her and Papa. But her aunt Kimiko and her cousin Genji are living with them now, and the family is only getting bigger with talk of a double marriage! And while things are changing at home, the world beyond their doors is even more unpredictable. World War II is coming to an end, and since the Japanese newspapers don’t report lost battles, the Japanese people are not entirely certain of where Japan stands. Yuriko is used to the sirens and the air-raid drills, but things start to feel more real when the neighbors who have left to fight stop coming home. When the bombs hit Hiroshima, it’s through Yuriko’s twelve-year-old eyes that we witness the devastation and horror. This is a story that offers young readers insight into how children lived during the war, while also introducing them to Japanese culture. Based loosely on author Kathleen Burkinshaw’s mother’s firsthand experience surviving the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, The Last Cherry Blossom hopes to warn readers of the immense damage nuclear war can bring, while reminding them that the “enemy” in any war is often not so different from ourselves.
