Filled with checklists, money-saving tips, and strategies for success (such as “Focus on your friendship” and “Have a sense of humor”) the book offers ideas for sensational showers (consider wine-tastings and spa treatments) and even gives the bridesmaids a game plan for getting dresses they’ll actually like!

Terrorists kidnap Mirembe Kenyagi, a Kenyan banker, and her sister Susan. Mirembe miraculously escapes, but Susan is sold into sex slavery in terrorist plagued Iraq. While working at the bank, Mirembe met Raul Martinez, a Miami lawyer who assists clients—both good guys and bad guys—by setting up “foundations” to hide money from creditors and cops. Mirembe contacts Raul seeking assistance as she prepares to traverse the dangerous Middle East refugee camps in search of Susan. Raul is married to Haifa, an international model in Jordan. Raul asks Haifa to enlist her rich and famous friends to aid the enslaved female refugees, but Haifa is an addict and captive of social media where she gathers followers and boyfriends. At great peril to himself, Raul diverts money from the international money-laundering underworld to fund rescue operations for sex slaves, coincidentally preventing his wife from latching on to his fortune. Searching for Sister explores people who waste their lives staring cross-eyed at screens but also the people who find the courage to act to rescue women in distress. Every month hundreds of women are kidnapped, raped, and forced into sex-slavery and marriage. Author Paul Platte reports the untold, true events of those women’s war for survival.

Book Description
Growing up in the Christmas-crazed theme town of Yuletide was fun for fashion designer Rachel Chambers until a family scandal made her unwelcome. Eight years later, she’s home for a friend’s wedding and trying to go incognito… until her old flame spots her. Snowboarder Gavin Blake wants to make things right with Rachel, and smoothing her way back in Yuletide seems like the best way to do just that. Making Rachel his date for a week of pre-wedding parties is sure to bring them closer. Except he underestimated how long a small town can carry a grudge–or how much the memory of a long-ago kiss could tempt him all over again. As the wedding approaches, Rachel remembers all she loved about her close-knit, Christmas-loving neighbors. But even if she can win over the town again, will she be able to convince her footloose, mogul-shredding wedding date that they can find happiness beyond the holidays?
