Where do parents turn when the waited-for bonding with their adopted child is slow to form? When they find themselves grieving over the birth child they couldn't have? When the child they so eagerly welcomed into their ho...

Crafted with Love
Juggling the people in her life is psychologist Kristen Anderson’s new skill. An irate student threatens her teaching job, her best friend wants Kristen to cover her caseload during her maternity leave, and the new local doctor has her in his sights as the ideal nanny for his six-year-old daughter. His interest alternates between romance and an unrealistic search for the perfect woman. Kristen has no time for such games, despite his devastating blue eyes and smoldering dark looks. If she’s not careful, she’ll drop all the balls, and her life will come crashing down. Single dad Mike Sutliff is also juggling. His new position as a hospital physician in tiny Gordon, Indiana, tests his skills and his temper. His daughter, Sophie, bounces between her mother and stepfather in Indianapolis and Mike’s home in Gordon. Kristen seems to be the only adult around able to handle Sophie’s behavior. But is Kristen the Proverbs woman Mike is determined to find? He can’t afford another mistake; his second-chance marriage has to be perfect!

Irish Feminist Futures
This book is about the future: Ireland’s future and feminism’s future, approached from a moment that has recently passed. The Celtic Tiger (circa 1995-2008) was a time of extraordinary and radical change, in which Ireland’s economic, demographic, and social structures underwent significant alteration. Conceptions of the future are powerfully prevalent in women’s cultural production in the Tiger era, where it surfaces as a form of temporality that is open to surprise, change, and the unknown. Examining a range of literary and filmic texts, Irish Feminist Futures analyzes how futurity structures representations of the feminine self in women’s cultural practice. Relationally connected and affectively open, these representations of self enable sustained engagements with questions of gender, race, sexuality, and class as they pertain to the material, social, and cultural realities of Celtic Tiger Ireland. This book will appeal to students and scholars of Irish studies, Irish feminist criticism, sociology, cultural studies, literature, women's studies, gender studies, neo-materialist and feminist theories.
