Twelve-year-old Sydney Taylor is used to people questioning if she's white because of her light skin and curly hair. Afterall, no one else in her family looks like her. Despite her physical appearance, Sydney has always known she is black, naturally, because her family is black. But lately, she's starting to question her racial identity. From her best friends declaring her hair too white to be braided, to a classmate's twisted logic about a racial slur, Sydney is more confused than ever. And when a saleslady threatens to call the police on her mom because of a dispute about whether Sydney is even her child, Sydney is even more perplexed. But when she finds a mysterious picture that unlocks a forbidden family secret, the truth about Sydney finally begins to emerge. As she searches for the answers about her racial identity, Sydney must decide if she can learn to accept and love all that she is.

If you have been told that you need to lose weight to get pregnant, you're probably feeling pretty crap right now. Your mind is going a million miles a minute: - frantically searching for another way to try and lose weight, - feeling so guilty that you could have let yourself get to this point, - swallowed by the utter sadness that you can't do the one thing in the world that you want most, to get pregnant. You are in the right place, my friend. In this book, Nicola breaks down the stigma that surrounds people who want to get pregnant in fat bodies. In a mix of personal experience, supportive advice and real research, she: - dives deep into what it means to get pregnant in a fat body, - offers tools to support you throughout the journey - and guides you through the twists and turns you may experience as you navigate infertility in a bigger body. Nicola Salmon is a fat-positive and feminist fertility coach. She advocates for change in how fat women are treated on their fertility journey and supports fat women who are struggling to get pregnant to find peace with their body, find their own version of health and finally escape the yo-yo dieting cycle.

Joan Price, the top expert on senior sex, draws on her own experiences as a widow since 2008, when she lost the love of her life to cancer. She shares her raw grief journey, sexual reawakening (and the many stumbles along the way), and attempts to dip back into dating, along with excellent advice on handling each step.

No one was wrong, and no choice is defective or shameful. Sex After Grief includes: Inspiring tales of how different people brought sex back into their lives after the loss of their spouse or partner Guidelines for dating again and getting sexual with a new person Reasons that solo sex is healthy and can be the path to feeling sexual again Advice from therapists, grief counselors, and sex coaches Self-help takeaways for creating an action plan

Sex means different things to different people – it’s as varied as the different species on the planet. So, seduction and foreplay are not only about getting what you want, but about giving and receiving, teasing and pleasing for the best possible rewards, no matter how you define them. (And, yes, foreplay IS sex!) The Ultimate Guide to Seduction & Foreplay teaches readers how to tune into their own desires, become better communicators, and ultimately be more confident, passionate, and attentive lovers. Inspired by fantasies of seduction, Marla and Jess take you on a journey of sexual exploration and help you understand the many factors that add to or inhibit arousal and pleasure on psychological, sociological, and sexological levels. Readers gain a deeper understanding of their own sexual needs and the foundations for greater compatibility and connection. As you explore your own learning and seduction styles (and your lover’s), you’ll discover and experiment with new and exciting ways to stimulate arousal and deepen intimacy: verbal, emotional, and digital seduction, foreplay, eroticizing daily actions, games, fantasy play, mindfulness, and more. Packed with practical exercises, techniques, and creative ideas — especially for busy couples — this inclusive guide is a surefire way for folks of all genders to master the art of seduction. You don’t have to be a rockstar in (or out of) the sack each time you have sex, but this book will help you approach your lovers with the confidence and comfort you deserve! Whether you are adding to your repertoire for later or striving to please your current lover, you’ll discover thrilling new pathways to pleasure and intimacy.
