Ryan is nine years old when he first meets Steph in an encounter that binds them together in ways they can’t yet understand and that renders them inseparable. On top of having to navigate the turbulent world of adolescence, Ryan also has to contend with his sisters and their mother, who share a kind of sixth sense that baffles as well as helps him. A ghostly presence from Steph’s past further complicates their world. The two share a long-running correspondence through which they document the natural – and supernatural – elements of growing up. Blending elements of romance, adventure, and the paranormal, Fate plays tricks of poor timing and misunderstandings on its protagonists and their families and begs the question, are we ever really in control of our own destinies?

WITH EXCLUSIVE PICTURES BY ARTHUR EDWARDS MBE.With the world watching, Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge, third in the line of succession to the throne, was born on 22 July 2013. The next day, his proud parents stepped out of St Mary's Hospital, London to present their baby to the excited crowds.From the beginning, the world had watched with bated breath as the charming prince and his future bride overcame the struggles of university, rumours and a brief breakup before finally reconciling and becoming engaged. The royal wedding in 2011 - watched by an incredible estimated 2 billion people worldwide - was a defining moment, not only in their young lives, but also for the perception of the monarchy.When the Palace announced the Duchess's much-anticipated pregnancy in 2012, a public frenzy surrounded the arrival of the heir to the throne. Now that the Duke has left the military to focus on his royal duties and charity work, there is already speculation as to whether George will follow in his father's footsteps, with a passion for wildlife and conservation.As well as a history of the young couple's romantic relationship, this in-depth book chronicles the next chapter of this modern-day fairytale and is packed with beautiful photographs, fascinating facts and expert analysis. An intriguing insight and unrivalled souvenir, this is an essential read for royalists and romantics. alike

The first of these Kauai tales came as letters to my grandchildren living on the mainland. I wanted to show them the place where I live and also fulfill some important duties as a grandparent. Each tale started for me as a curiousity about a feature or "critter" on the island. As a child I often made up tales about my surroundings and these tales came in much the same way. The tales have a fairytale or legend flavor and are part of a timeless, mythical place, a small round island in the middle of the sea
