Download or read book Bittersweet written by Susan Cain and published by Viking. This book was released on 2022-04-21 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Loss and impermanence are inescapable, part of the warp and weft of our lives. They are essential to love, to growth, and to art. And yet, too often, we do not acknowledge loss, let alone honour the experience of it. Illuminating, thoughtful, and deeply necessary, Susan Cain's new book will help us to name and value the experience of loss, pointing the way toward ways of being and rituals that help us to accept it rather than bury it. Blending memoir, reportage, and social science, it will reveal that joy and loss exist in equilibrium; that vulnerability, or even a melancholy temperament, can be a strength; and that embracing our inevitable losses makes us more human and more whole.

Book excerpt: THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER New York Times bestselling author Jen Lancaster has lived a life based on re-invention and self-improvement. From Bitter Is the New Black to The Tao of Martha, she’s managed to document her (and her generation’s) attempts to shape up, grow up, and have it all—sometimes with disastrous results… Sure Jen has made mistakes. She spent all her money from a high-paying job on shoes, clothes, and spa treatments. She then carried a Prada bag to the unemployment office. She wrote a whole memoir about dieting…but didn’t lose weight. She embarked on a quest for cultural enlightenment that only cemented her love for John Hughes movies and Kraft American Singles. She tried to embrace everything Martha Stewart, while living with a menagerie of rescue cats and dogs. (Glitter…everywhere.) Mistakes are one thing; regrets are another. After a girls’ weekend in Savannah makes her realize that she is—yikes!—middle-aged (binge watching is so the new binge drinking), Jen decides to make a bucket list and seize the day, even if that means having her tattoo removed at one hundred times the cost of putting it on. From attempting a juice cleanse to studying Italian, from learning to ride a bike to starting a new business, and from sampling pasta in Rome to training for a 5K, Jen is turning a mid-life crisis into a mid-life opportunity, sharing her sometimes bumpy—but always hilarious—attempts to better her life…again.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Devastate Me (Savage Vipers MC #2) by Anne Storm Nova I’m not even sure how I ended up working as a nanny for a biker and his wife. That’s not true. I knew. It all started when we found out about my mother’s years-long affair, and the fact that my father was not who we thought. The minute the DNA results came back, my father’s side of the family cut me off and left me destitute like it was my fault my mother was a cheating liar. That meant, I needed to earn money for my next semester. I didn’t realize it also meant being immersed in a whole new world, with a different type of man than I’d ever been around. I knew he was bad for me – not just bad – the worst. He would be the worst kind of man for me and not just because he was a biker. As my mom said when she was found out – “The heart wants what the heart wants.” I should have remembered how sad she sounded when she said that. Breakneck The sweet little honey Kip hired to watch his kid caught my attention immediately. I could smell the innocence on her and all it did was paint a target on her I couldn’t ignore. I’d have her, own her, make her my one and only. She’d just have to come to terms with the fact that I’d never be hers in return. She could have the parts I was willing to give her, but not the whole. I should feel bad about that. That’s what I’ve been told anyway. I don’t. I live the way I want. Always have. Not about to change for anyone. Not. Even. Her. Someone should have warned me that her innocence didn’t mean she wasn’t full of fire and brimstone. My little angel turned she-demon and it changed everything. *This book was a requested story from readers who enjoy reading cheating romance storylines. Devastate Me is 133,110 words in length.

Welcome to Merc and Tiger Lily’s story. It starts where all stories should, in the beginning. This is the very broken beginning that won’t feel much at all like a romance, because it isn’t. Their road is bumpy, the ride is rough, and your heart might get a little bruised along the way. I hope you’re ready. You asked for this! xo, Christine Michelle BOOK DESCRIPTION: Tiger Lily When I was a little girl, I always dreamed of my wedding. I dreamed of my husband, my children, my future. When I developed a crush on the gorgeous boy who was my neighbor, he became the man in those dreams. When he took my virginity, those dreams were at the forefront of my mind, turning just another hook up - for him - into something more in my heart. Unrequited love feels like hell when you realize it’s unrequited. It feels worse when you see those two pink lines on the stick telling you that your one fantasy night turned into so much more. It’s unbearable when your love is forced to marry you, but never honors the vows he took. My heartbreak lasted for years. Eventually, things changed but our path to get there was never easy. Merc She was the girl I always overlooked until one stupid night, and the worst decision of my life, cost me my freedom. She was the girl who trapped me with a kid I never wanted. Slowly, as time moved on and another kid was brought about by another dumb decision on my part, I began to realize what I had been overlooking all along. She was fiercely loyal in the face of my betrayals. She loved harder than any person I knew. She was always there for me, even when I never gave her the same courtesy in return. Then, she decided enough was enough and I learned to fight for what’s important instead of taking what was easy.
