Download or read book Briella in the Skye written by ,Daniel and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2022-03-08 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortly after Christmas 2020, we were told by our doctor that he saw a little more fluid than normal in the baby’s head. Concerned, he sent us to a specialist at twenty-two weeks. The specialist did an ultrasound. About thirty minutes later, I was taken back to his office to speak about what he saw. Due to COVID-19, my husband couldn’t be there. Without offering to call my husband, the doctor told me our baby’s head was swollen with fluid because she never developed brain tissues. Also, because her brain didn’t develop, other parts of her vital organs had defects. Some of those defects included the loss of the function to swallow, part of her heart having defects, and her face and toes being abnormally formed. I didn’t cry in his office, probably due to shock. Briella’s swollen head was putting my life in danger and could have been fatal if I kept her any longer. The sense of urgency was unfathomable and devastating. Having to lose our baby that we wanted so badly and for whom we waited three years broke us. There are very few people who talk about child loss because it’s so hard and painful. People don’t know how to react to us. Once we started to tell our story, we realized that losing a child at any stage is a lot more common than we thought. We wanted to write this book to offer awareness and a different perspective.

Book excerpt: The mysterious disappearance of Brecht leaves his loved ones desperate for answers. With bloodstained walls but no trace of his body, the possibility of his survival lingers in their hearts. As his pregnant girlfriend, sister, son, and friends unite in their search, they stumble upon a shocking revelation: Brecht was not only an enigmatic individual, but also a prolific author. His books serve as glimpses into his own life, drawing the search party deeper into his world. Yet their efforts to retrace his steps through the settings of his novels prove futile, until a cryptic collection of poems is unearthed, presenting them with an intricate puzzle to solve. Just as their hopes are reignited, a grisly discovery halts their search: Brecht's mutilated remains resurface. Amidst this harrowing investigation, Briella, Brecht's girlfriend, grapples with an escalating terror at her workplace. Employees are being mercilessly targeted, and the neighborhood surrounding the company is plagued by a series of murders. Bureau agents, delving into the burgeoning case, uncover a shocking truth: there is a massive fraudulent scheme unfolding within Briella's company, implicating Brecht. However, disbelief clouds their judgment, as Brecht has long been declared bankrupt. As the boundaries between truth and fiction blur, the search for Brecht takes on new dimensions, propelling all involved into a high-stakes game of cat and mouse, where the ultimate price may be more than they ever imagined.

Book excerpt: Enjoy book four in this BBW Hawaiian Wedding Romance by USA Today Bestselling contemporary romance author Mary E Thompson. I knew better, but I still did it. I wasn’t the same man she used to know. Briella called me out. Womanizer, allergic to commitment, and happily single. She didn’t realize the teenager she knew had changed. She still saw me as the guy who ditched her sister at a school dance more than a decade earlier. I wasn’t that guy anymore, but I didn’t need her to see me as more. No one else did, so why should she. She was a sweet, curvy, sexy single mom that deserved better than me. She gave so much of herself to everyone else, I wondered how she had any left at the end of the day. Mother, business owner, volunteer…but all I saw was the woman she was beneath all the masks she wore. Kind, strong, passionate, and the most amazing woman I’d ever known. She thought I was the devil. Maybe I was. But she was definitely an angel. One I didn’t deserve. One I couldn’t resist.
Download or read book Ms Moffett s First Year written by Abby Goodnough and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2009-04-28 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In summer of 2000, legal secretary Donna Moffett answered an ad for the New York City Teaching Fellows program, which sought to recruit "talented professionals" from other fields to teach in some of the city's worst schools. Seven weeks later she was in a first grade classroom in Flatbush, Brooklyn, nearly completely unprepared for what she was about to face. New York Times education reporter Abby Goodnough followed Donna Moffett through her first year as a teacher, writing a frontpage, award-winning series that galvanized discussion nationwide. Now she has expanded that series into a book that, through the riveting story of Moffett's experiences, explores the gulf between the rhetoric of education reform and the realities of the public school classroom. Ms. Moffett's First Year is neither a Hollywood- friendly tale of 'one person making a difference,' nor a reductive indictment of the public education system. It is rather a provocative portrait of the inadequacy of good intentions, of the challenges of educating poor and immigrant populations, and of a well-meaning but underprepared woman becoming a teacher the hard way. While the story takes place in New York, Ms. Moffett's first year is a metaphor for the experiences of teachers everywhere in America, one that illuminates the philosophical, economic, political, and ideological dilemmas that have come more and more to determine their experience -- and their students' experiences -- in the classroom.

Book excerpt: SLEEPING BEASTS TELL NO TALES. . . Belladonna has always cared more for beasts and creatures than people. How could she not when she sees the cruelties of humanity every day while working? She’s plenty ready to take on the poachers who dare enter Yellowstone, but nothing could prepare her for a portal opening and dropping her into another world. The Grimm Forest is full of dangers but perhaps none are as threatening as the man who finds her. Gruff in demeanor and prone to fury more than any other emotion, Captain Bluebeard is a beast of a man. With a curse upon him and too many worlds trying to merge together, Bell doesn’t know how to handle it all. Her growing attraction is a nuisance, for sure, but the hidden room in Bluebeard’s castle might destroy everything. Villains are breaking free and fighting for power. Snow White and her seven demons are leaving destruction in their wake. Bell knows the captain can help the worlds if he’d just try, but the curse weighs heavy on the bitter man. Falling for Bluebeard would doom her but refusing to see his light might doom the universe. After all, some things run too deep to be forgotten. . . If you like Sarah J Maas, Gena Showalter, J.R. Ward, Laura Thalassa, or Jennifer L. Armentrout, you won’t be able to put down this highly addictive twisted fairy tale.
