Book excerpt: From “talented wordsmith” (Publishers Weekly) Lisa Maxwell comes a lush, atmospheric fantasy novel filled with twists and turns about a girl who is kidnapped and brought to an island inhabited by fairies, a roguish ship captain, and bloodthirsty beasts. For as long as she can remember, Gwendolyn Allister has never had a place to call home. Her mother believes they are being hunted by brutal monsters, and those delusions have brought them to London, far from the life Gwen had finally started to build for herself. Gwen’s only saving grace is that her best friend, Olivia, is with her for the summer. But shortly after their arrival, the girls are kidnapped by shadowy creatures and dragged into a world of flesh-eating sea hags and dangerous Fey. And Gwen begins to realize that maybe her mother isn’t so crazy after all… Gwen discovers that this new world she inhabits is called Neverland, but it’s nothing like the Neverland you’ve heard about in stories. Here, good and evil lose their meaning and memories slip like water through your fingers. As Gwen struggles to remember where she came from and tries to find a way home, she must choose between trusting the charming fairy-tale hero who says all the right things and the captivating pirate who promises to keep her safe. Caught in the ultimate battle between good and evil, with time running out and her enemies closing in, Gwen is forced to finally face the truths she’s been hiding from all along. But can she save Neverland without losing herself?

Book excerpt: We know that the primary reason we eat is because our body needs fuel to survive, yet our relationship with food extends far beyond that---it's not just about what we should or shouldn't be eating. It incorporates aspects of our physiology, emotions, behaviors, and thought patterns, and how we feel about our lives, all rooted in a culture that supports and fosters an unhealthy, disordered relationship with food. Despite our repeated efforts, many of us find ourselves falling back into the same habitual patterns around food---habits that keep us overweight and unhappy. Laura Dawn sheds light on how we get hooked on the food struggle from six primary perspectives: environmental, physiological, behavioral, mental, emotional and spiritual, and provides concrete steps you can take to unhook yourself from the struggle with food. "Unhooked" cuts through the over-complex and contradictory dieting information flooding the market and provides a clear blueprint for people to step onto the path of vibrant health and freedom from the struggle. "Unhooked" approaches the pertinent topic of overeating from a multi-dimensional, holistic, and mindfulness-based approach that encompasses the broader perspective of healing our relationship with food from the inside-out. Drawing on a range of easy-to-understand information, Laura Dawn consistently points to nature, to science, to the wisdom traditions and personal experience for the answers so many seek. "Unhooked" offers a unique framework of solutions, practical tips, a wealth of wisdom and easy to implement advice for anyone struggling with food---whether it be chronic overeating, incessant cravings, food addiction, yo-yo dieting, disordered eating, the inability to eat certain foods in moderation, obsession with weight and preoccupation with food that so many millions of people experience each and every day. "Unhooked" empowers readers to shift their perspective from food as enemy to food as friend, fueling the transformation to vibrant health and reminds us that we are all worthy to live the healthy lives of our dreams.
