But when political turmoil strikes and Cat’s mother is unexpectedly thrust into the role of Prime Minister, normal suddenly seems very far away. Now the entire world seems to be watching Cat. For someone who likes to live on her own terms, having every moment scheduled and every outfit pre-approved comes as quite the shock. Sure, residing at the Lodge has its perks – chefs, housekeepers and every entertainment option you could dream of – but how does one girl deal with the expectations of a whole country? As if all that weren’t enough, someone is out to get Cat’s mum, Isabel. Major disruptions are happening at all the Canberra landmarks – and they seem designed to directly sabotage the Prime Minister. Cat, along with her new friends, Sadie and Ollie, sets out to track down and unmask a rogue faction within a youth action group called ACTION UPRISING. The clues will take them across every inch of the capital and lead them to investigate even their own schoolmates. The PM's Daughter TV show was created by Tristram Baumber and Matthew Allred.

She dreams of a fresh start at college, but when family tragedy strikes, Daunis puts her future on hold to look after her fragile mother. The only bright spot is meeting Jamie, the charming new recruit on her brother Levi’s hockey team. Yet even as Daunis falls for Jamie, she senses the dashing hockey star is hiding something. Everything comes to light when Daunis witnesses a shocking murder, thrusting her into an FBI investigation of a lethal new drug. Reluctantly, Daunis agrees to go undercover, drawing on her knowledge of chemistry and Ojibwe traditional medicine to track down the source. But the search for truth is more complicated than Daunis imagined, exposing secrets and old scars. At the same time, she grows concerned with an investigation that seems more focused on punishing the offenders than protecting the victims. Now, as the deceptions—and deaths—keep growing, Daunis must learn what it means to be a strong Anishinaabe kwe (Ojibwe woman) and how far she’ll go for her community, even if it tears apart the only world she’s ever known.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For fans of Jacqueline Winspear, Charles Todd, and Anne Perry comes a gripping mystery featuring intrepid spy and code breaker Maggie Hope. This time, the fallout of a deadly plot comes straight to her own front door. World War II rages on across Europe, but Maggie Hope has finally found a moment of rest on the pastoral coast of western Scotland. Home from an undercover mission in Berlin, she settles down to teach at her old spy training camp, and to heal from scars on both her body and heart. Yet instead of enjoying the quieter pace of life, Maggie is quickly drawn into another web of danger and intrigue. When three ballerinas fall strangely ill in Glasgow—including one of Maggie’s dearest friends—Maggie partners with MI-5 to uncover the truth behind their unusual symptoms.

Download or read book PMS written by Dr Bruce Miller and published by Oak Publication Sdn Bhd. This book was released on 2016-01-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PMS - premenstrual syndrome - is estimated to affect some 40 percent of women between the ages of 14 and 50. PMS is a very real condition. Women suffering from PMS are not weak, nor neurotic and the illness is not "all in the head." This condition is anything but a joke. If you suffer from PMS you know when it hits you, life can be really unpleasant. PMS usually involves a combination of pain, altered mood and temporary weight gain. PMS is an individualized condition. One woman's PMS will probably not be identical to another woman's PMS. Common symptoms include fluid retention, depression, tension, headaches, tender swollen breasts, clumsiness, irritability, and food cravings. Symptoms can occur two days to two weeks before menstruation, and some women experience symptoms so severe their day-to-day functioning is impaired. Until recently little could be done for PMs sufferers, but now diet, nutrition, and lifestyle modifications hold out promise of relief. This book describes and outlines for you the natural approach to treating PMS.
Download or read book Madame Bovary s Daughter written by Linda Urbach and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2011-07-26 with total page 514 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Picking up after the shattering end of Gustave Flaubert’s classic, Madame Bovary, this beguiling novel imagines an answer to the question Whatever happened to Emma Bovary’s orphaned daughter? One year after her mother’s suicide and just one day after her father’s brokenhearted demise, twelve-year-old Berthe Bovary is sent to live on her grandmother’s impoverished farm. Amid the beauty of the French countryside, Berthe models for the painter Jean-François Millet, but fate has more in store for her than a quiet life of simple pleasures. Berthe’s determination to rise above her mother’s scandalous past will take her from the dangerous cotton mills of Lille to a convent in Rouen to the wealth and glamour of nineteenth-century Paris. There, as an apprentice to famed fashion designer Charles Frederick Worth, Berthe is ushered into the high society of which she once only dreamed. But even as the praise for her couture gowns steadily rises, she still yearns for the one thing her mother never had: the love of someone she loves in return. Brilliantly integrating one of classic literature’s fictional creations with real historical figures, Madame Bovary’s Daughter is an uncommon coming-of-age tale, a splendid excursion through the rags and the riches of French fashion, and a sweeping novel of poverty and wealth, passion and revenge.

Download or read book I ll Have What She s Having written by Erin Carlson and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2017-08-29 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A backstage look at the making of Nora Ephron's revered trilogy--When Harry Met Sally, You've Got Mail, and Sleepless in Seattle--which brought romantic comedies back to the fore, and an intimate portrait of the beloved writer/director who inspired a generation of Hollywood women, from Mindy Kaling to Lena Dunham. In I'll Have What She's Having entertainment journalist Erin Carlson tells the story of the real Nora Ephron and how she reinvented the romcom through her trio of instant classics. With a cast of famous faces including Rob Reiner, Tom Hanks, Meg Ryan, and Billy Crystal, Carlson takes readers on a rollicking, revelatory trip to Ephron's New York City, where reality took a backseat to romance and Ephron--who always knew what she wanted and how she wanted it--ruled the set with an attention to detail that made her actors feel safe but sometimes exasperated crew members. Along the way, Carlson examines how Ephron explored in the cinema answers to the questions that plagued her own romantic life and how she regained faith in love after one broken engagement and two failed marriages. Carlson also explores countless other questions Ephron's fans have wondered about: What sparked Reiner to snap out of his bachelor blues during the making of When Harry Met Sally? Why was Ryan, a gifted comedian trapped in the body of a fairytale princess, not the first choice for the role? After she and Hanks each separatel balked at playing Mail's Kathleen Kelly and Sleepless' Sam Baldwin, what changed their minds? And perhaps most importantly: What was Dave Chappelle doing . . . in a turtleneck? An intimate portrait of a one of America's most iconic filmmakers and a look behind the scenes of her crowning achievements, I'll Have What She's Having is a vivid account of the days and nights when Ephron, along with assorted cynical collaborators, learned to show her heart on the screen.
