Book Description

An unconditional love, a life-changing loss, a heart-wrenching choice. Successful and ambitious Victoria Turnbull has had enough of relationships––too many times she’s made painful sacrifices for love––but that was before she landed in the lap of a tall, quiet Welshman at her best friend’s New Year’s Eve party. Recently divorced Gavin Williams is calm, caring and kind. He falls instantly for the enigmatic Vicky, but it’s only when a hurricane blows through the Caribbean, cruelly ripping the lovers apart, that Vicky finally realises she has everything she’s ever wanted in Gav, except the one thing she truly desires—a baby. Surely a decade-old hidden secret won't stop her from having a child with the man she loves until she discovers getting pregnant is one thing, staying pregnant… another. Then when Gav's past slams unexpectedly into Vicky's present and she’s left reeling from a thirteen-year-old confession from former flame, Chris Williams, everything she thought she knew about love, life and her past decisions, is thrown into turmoil. With two Great Loves vying for her heart, will Vicky stay true to herself, or will her shameful secret stop her from having a baby with her forever Great Love? Buy A Star Unborn and prepare to have your heart broken, then uplifted in this epic series finale. From the majestic mountains of Snowdonia via the sun-drenched beaches of the Cayman Islands, the formality of Singapore, the laid-back vibe of San Diego, and the stunning vistas of New Zealand, A Star Unborn, the thrilling finale in The Three Great Loves of Victoria Turnbull series, is a beautiful and emotional love story about what it means to continue loving, even in the face of great loss.

Book Description

During the past several decades, the fetus has been diversely represented in political debates, medical textbooks and journals, personal memoirs and autobiographies, museum exhibits and mass media, and civil and criminal law. Ourselves Unborn argues that the meanings people attribute to the fetus are not based simply on biological fact or theological truth, but are in fact strongly influenced by competing definitions of personhood and identity, beliefs about knowledge and authority, and assumptions about gender roles and sexuality. In addition, these meanings can be shaped by dramatic historical change: over the course of the twentieth century, medical and technological changes made fetal development more comprehensible, while political and social changes made the fetus a subject of public controversy. Moreover, since the late nineteenth century, questions about how fetal life develops and should be valued have frequently intersected with debates about the authority of science and religion, and the relationship between the individual and society. In examining the contested history of fetal meanings, Sara Dubow brings a fresh perspective to these vital debates.

Book Description

Jessica Verdi, the author of My Life After Now and The Summer I Wasn't Me, returns with a heartbreaking and poignant novel of grief and guilt that reads like Nicholas Sparks for teens. It's all Ryden's fault. If he hadn't gotten Meg pregnant, she would have never stopped her chemo treatments and would still be alive. Instead he's failing fatherhood one dirty diaper at a time. And it's not like he's had time to grieve while struggling to care for their infant daughter, start his senior year, and earn the soccer scholarship he needs to go to college. The one person who makes Ryden feel like his old self is Joni. She's fun and energetic—and doesn't know he has a baby. But the more time they spend together, the harder it becomes to keep his two worlds separate. Finding one of Meg's journals only stirs up old emotions. Ryden's convinced Meg left other notebooks for him to find, some message to help his new life make sense. But how is he going to have a future if he can't let go of the past? "Ryden's story is a moving illustration of how sometimes you have to let go of the life you planned to embrace the life you've been given. A strong, character-driven story that teen readers will love."—Carrie Arcos, National Book Award Finalist for Out of Reach

Book Description

From award-winning science journalist Linda Geddes, a fascinating and practical companion for expectant parents that makes sense of conflicting advice about pregnancy, birth, and raising babies. Can I eat peanuts during pregnancy? Do unborn babies dream? Can men get pregnancy symptoms too? How much do babies remember? How can I get my baby to sleep through the night? The moment she discovers she’s pregnant, every woman suddenly has a million ques­tions about the life that’s developing inside her. Linda Geddes was no different, except that as a journalist writing for New Scientist magazine she had access to the most up-to-date scientific research. What began as a personal quest to find the truth behind headlines and information that didn’t patronize or confuse is now a brilliant new book. In Bumpology, Geddes discusses the latest research on every topic that expectant parents encounter, from first pregnancy symptoms to pregnancy diet, the right birth plan, and a baby’s first year.
