At the turn of the millennium, American-born Paige Parker and investment guru Jim Rogers spend three years—1,101 days to be exact—driving over six continents in their "sunburst yellow" coupe and trailer, ultimately setting a Guinness World Record. During the epic journey, Paige's world view is turned upside down, eventually leading her and her family to their ideal home in Singapore. On the road trip, she meets women from every walk of life, inspiring monks in China, boy soldiers in Angola and oppressive patriarchy in too many countries, yet she walks away with a profound faith in humankind. She now wants to pass the lessons from the road to her two daughters, to women everywhere and to all intrepid travellers.

They say little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice. That innocent baby in the cot will one day become a sister, a mother, a wife, a daughter-in-law.

In this collection curated by veteran editor and writer Theresa Tan, mothers write letters to their daughters who may one day become mothers themselves. At times hilarious, mostly brutally honest, these are no-holds-barred, one-sided conversations between moms and their girls: values to impart, mistakes to learn from, wisdom to pass on, confessions to m...
**A FORCED MARRIAGE HISTORICAL ROMANCE** William Stanley is called back from the military when his elder brother and the future Marquess of Devonshire perishes in a fatal carriage accident. Now he is expected to accept the title and the duties that come along with it. Katherine is being forced to marry an ageing Duke by her own father who views the match as an end to secure a valuable political ally. Katherine absolutely loathes the idea of marriage, having seen first-hand how torturous it could be for some women, especially docile ones like her mother. She doesn't want to suffer the same fate but when her father threatens to harm her mother, she is left with little choice but to agree to his sickening order. What happens when William decides to rescue Katherine, his little cousin's best friend whom he'd never paid much attention to until now? Katherine has had a silly crush on William since childhood but now that he's come back from the Army looking better than ever, will she be able to control her traitorous feelings?

The tension builds in Behind the Bit when Sasha and her team are accepted to a prestigious horse clinic. Can Sasha and Callie work together when it counts?
The story takes place in a small area in an anonymous southern state. The main character is a Creole lady named Indiana who was fortunate enough to be legally adopted by a very affluent white couple and raised as a sister to their biological daughter.

There are lots of people with money in Trudeau the town where the nucleus of this story takes place. The (fictitious?) sto...
