Going Home brings you three classic tales about three very different women who must rediscover the love of family before they can give their hearts to others.

Island of FlowersInnocent Laine Simmons journeyed to Hawaii to get to know the father she hadn`t seen in years. Was she ready to face her past -- and find her future in the arms of her father`s sexy partner, Dillon O`Brian?

Mind Over MatterProtecting her mother`s interests pitted no-nonsense Aurora Fields against a very determined David Brady. But there were few David couldn`t charm if he set his mind to it -- and this time it really mattered.


Publisher`s Note

GOING HOME collects three early Nora Roberts romances. Six months after the death of her high-pressure father/manager, the heroine of "Unfinished Business," talented--and exhausted--concert pianist Vanessa Sexton, returns to her small Maryland hometown, to rediscover both the mother and the high school sweetheart she hasn`t seen in 12 years. A teacher working in France, Laine Simmons flies to Hawaii to reestablish contact with the father she hasn`t seen since she was seven in "Island of Flowers." Her attempts to finally get to know her father are misinterpreted by her father`s attractive business partner, Dillon O`Brien, who believes that Laine is only after her father`s money. In "Mind Over Matter," producer David Brady`s decision to make psychic Clarissa de Basse the focus of his new documentary forces him to contend with Clarissa`s agent and daughter, Aurora "A. J." Fields, whose own mental powers are a closely guarded secret.

Fan the flame of your romance! There is no limit to how much your love can deepen when you make a point to do something romantic in every season.

How about a quickie, like leaving a rose in the car seat, making love in broad daylight, or sharing an ice cream sundae with one spoon?...

… or a surprise love note to say how much you care, taped to a towel (“I want to wrap myself around you”) or to the morning paper (“Our love is front page news!”)…

… or make “Getting to Know You” a game with a lover`s questionnaire, “Where was your first kiss?” “If we could live together anywhere in the world, where would it be?”…

… or fantasize about a romantic getaway with brief profiles of the world`s top romantic spots, including Casa de Campo, the Berkshire Mountains in Massachusetts, the Loire Valley in France, and many more…

Customer`s Reviews
This really works!, December 3, 2002
By Lisa Applebaum (New York, New York USA)
I really enjoyed this book. I thought the authors ideas on romance are both funny and thought provoking.She made you want to go out and fall in love. A must read for the holidays.

Refreshingly creative endeavor, October 28, 2002
Reviewer: A reader
Unlike many books of this genre, this one really has something to say. Not only is the writing accessible, enjoyable and at times hilarious, Ms. Goodman has also done a great deal of research into love rituals around the world and across cultures, and has included them here for us lucky readers. Personally--and I feel certain many will share my opinion--I`ve been waiting for a book like this for a long time.

Totto-Chan, The Little Girl at the Window by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi

SYNOPSIS

Aaaa.. Ni dia.. Buku paling best dan paling popular dan yang paling sa suka.. Begini ceritanya, the book begins with Totto-chan's mother coming to know of her daughter's expulsion from public school. Her mother realizes that what Totto-chan needs is a school where more freedom of expression is permitted. Thus, she takes Totto-chan to meet the headmaster of the new school, Mr. Kobayashi. From that moment a friendship is formed between master and pupil.
The book goes on to describe the times that Totto-chan has, the friends she makes, the lessons she learns, and the vibrant atmosphere that she imbibes. All of these are presented to the reader through the eyes of a child. Thus the reader sees how the normal world is transformed into a beautiful, exciting place full of joy and enthusiasm.
The reader also sees in their role as adults, how Mr. Kobayashi introduces new activities to interest the pupils. One sees in Mr. Kobayashi a man who understands children and strives to develop their qualities of mind, body and heart. His concern for the physically handicapped and his emphasis on the equality of all children are remarkable. In the school, the children lead happy lives, unaware of the things going on in the world. World War 2 has started, yet in this school, no signs of it are seen. But one day, the school is bombed, and was never rebuilt,even though the headmaster did claim that he looked forward to building an even better school the next time round. However,it was never done and this ends Totto-chan's years as a pupil at Tomoe Gakuen.
