DOWNLOAD EBOOKDid you want to go to America? Pop: Sure. I didn't have a choice. My father said I had to go. So I went. Were you sad when you left your village? Pop: Maybe a little . . . well, maybe a lot. Ten-year-old Gim Lew Yep knows that he must leave his home in China and travel to America with the father who is a stranger to him. Gim Lew doesn't want to leave behind everything that he's ever known. But he is even more scared of disappointing his father. He uses his left hand, rather than the "correct" right hand; he stutters; and most of all, he worries about not passing the strict immigration test administered at Angel Island. The Dragon's Child is a touching portrait of a father and son and their unforgettable journey from China to the land of the Golden Mountain. It is based on actual conversations between two-time Newbery Honor author Laurence Yep and his father and on research on his family's immigration history by his niece, Dr. Kathleen S. Yep.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAnything can happen on Dragon Isle... Shapeshifters. Billionaires. Surprise weddings that will knock your socks off? You'll find all of this and more in the Return to Dragon Isle bundle. Book 1: Dragons Are Forever Anything can happen on Dragon Isle... One feisty dragon + one desperate human = one fake marriage. Jax needs a wife in a bad way. He stands to inherit an incredible fortune, but there's one caveat: he has to get married, like, yesterday. He can't touch the money until he's claimed a mate. He's got to stay married for an entire year, and then if they go their separate ways, it's no big deal. One year of marriage? He could do that. Only, all of the ladies on Dragon Isle are girls he grew up with. Nobody is going to take a chance on this. Nobody would buy it. Then one drunken stranger changes everything... Melissa has absolutely nothing going for her. When her husband caught her by surprise last year and filed for divorce, she was stuck with half of his debt and...nothing. She had nothing. They lost the house, the cars, and their savings accounts because apparently, Kyle had a secret gambling problem she knew nothing about. When a handsome stranger approaches her in a random bar with a strange offer, she's intrigued enough to say yes. One year being married to a rich guy? One year without sex or love or romance attached? One year as long as she doesn't ask too many questions? Melissa can't sign up fast enough. Soon she discovers that Dragon Isle isn't a normal island, though. It's full of secrets, and she finds herself determined to figure out what Jax is hiding from her. Book 2: Dragon Crushed Anything can happen on Dragon Isle... One feisty dragon + one pissed-off human = one relationship that won't be easy. Lana doesn't believe in happy endings. She doesn't believe in true love, and she doesn't believe in fated mates, and she doesn't believe in anything romantic. Oliver ruined all of that for her when he chose to break her heart. Oh, it might have been ten years ago, but she hasn't forgotten. Humans never do. Oliver has been busy building his company. As the CEO of a million-dollar company, he's got a lot on his mind. When he's feeling honest, he's more than willing to admit he threw himself into work after his relationship with Lana failed. He let her down, and he's never forgiven himself. When a freak storm forces the inhabitants of Dragon Isle to hunker down, Oliver finds himself trapped with the one person he never thought he'd see again.Lana is stuck at his house with no place to go, and Oliver realizes that when it comes to her, some things never change.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKNow with all new content by John Ringo! Paradise Lost In the future there is no want, no war, no disease nor ill-timed death. The world is a paradise¾and then, in a moment, it ends. The council that controls the Net falls out and goes to war. Everywhere people who have never known a moment of want or pain are left wondering how to survive. But scattered across the face of the earth are communities which have returned to the natural life of soil and small farm. In the village of Raven's Mill, Edmund Talbot, master smith and unassuming historian, finds that all the problems of the world are falling in his lap. Refugees are flooding in, bandits are roaming the woods, and his former lover and his only daughter struggle through the Fallen landscape. Enemies, new and old, gather like jackals around a wounded lion. But what the jackals do not know is that while old he may be, this lion is far from death. And hidden in the past is a mystery that has waited until this time to be revealed. You cross Edmund Talbot at your peril, for a smith is not all he once was. . . .
