Book excerpt: When Stratford-upon-Avon-based radio presenter Laura Lundon loses the job she adores - shortly after her beloved aunt's death - she thinks things couldn't get any worse. Until her parents reveal a long-kept family secret. On discovering that she was conceived in Deya in Majorca, Laura faces up to her dislike of foreign travel to visit the holiday island in Spain ... on a mission to discover her biological father's identity. During her first evening in Palma, where Laura's staying for her first week, she meets gorgeous local photographer Carlos when he rescues her from some drunks' unwanted attention. The two have dinner together and see each other again as Carlos becomes first her friend/island guide and then, one night, her lover. When Carlos leads Laura to a shocking conclusion about her biological parent, she flees from him and from Palma to the mountain village of Deya. There she stays in the luxurious sanctuary of La Residencia hotel, where she tries to come to terms with the recent events that have changed the landscape of her life. One day she rents a car for an excursion away from the mountains to visit one of Majorca's inland towns. Caught in a sudden, heavy storm, Laura has a chance encounter with an American woman who runs a cat refuge in the countryside. The woman needs to return to the States to be with her dying mother, and Laura volunteers to look after the refuge on a temporary basis. Although Laura isn't by nature a practical person, she learns to cope with cat litter trays, the felines' needle-like claws, and the challenges of daily life in a Majorcan cat refuge. But when the American woman's landlord comes to visit and makes a pass at Laura, she won't cope with his unwanted advances and throws him out of the property. The landlord takes his revenge by issuing the cat refuge with a formal eviction. Unable to contact the American, Laura is left to use her own initiative and personal resources she didn't know she possessed to ensure the cats and kittens aren't left homeless. Can she find alternative premises in time? And will the truth about her biological father bring her the love and happiness she thought was lost?

Book excerpt: From acclaimed yoga teacher Guru Jagat comes a wildly cool, practical, and beautifully illustrated guide to applying the simple and super-effective technology of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation to everyday life, upgrading your "operating system" inside and out. With Invincible Living, Guru Jagat shares a radical way of understanding yoga—not just as something to do in practice, but as a broader principle for living. Candid, encouraging, and irreverent, Guru Jagat shows how Kundalini Yoga—which forgoes complex poses for energy-boosting, breath-driven exercises, quick meditations, and simple poses most of which you can do at your desk—can reset your life and well-being, regardless of your age or background. Designed explicitly for everyday people, not ashram-going or gym-bodied yogis, fast, effective Kundalini techniques can be done anywhere, from the car to the conference room. There’s no need to have a bendy back or toned arms. You don’t even need a mat: just a quiet space to clear your head, and as little as a minute out of your day. From beauty and self-care to work and relationships, Invincible Living tackles both the mind—from mood elevation and stress reduction to renewed mental clarity—and the body—from anti-aging, and increased metabolism to amped up energy. Packed with tips, exercises, and step-by-step instructions and fully photographed and illustrated in Guru Jagat’s fresh, handmade-meets-hipster style, Invincible Living is fresh take on ancient wisdom: a must-have guide for anyone who wants simple, effective, tools for a supercharged life as taught by a uniquely compelling teacher who upends all preconceptions about yoga. Invincible Living includes 100 color photographs and illustrations.
