Summary

Easy-going Sebastien divides his time between working as a cleaning technician, caring for his widowed father, and running off to the park for soccer practice. Coasting through his existence, he's convinced he doesn't have much going for him.
That isn't what his best friend Jack thinks. Quick-witted and passionate, Jack is fascinated by art and history, but the greatest book or painting could never compare to how he feels when he's alone with Sebastien.
In the last five years, Seb and Jack have shared everything, sometimes even a bed. Yet though their chemistry is smoking hot, Sebastien keeps Jack at a safe distance. But when the two move in together to lower their living expenses, that distance gets smaller and smaller, until Sebastien and Jack are standing so close, they can't see what's right in front of their eyes ... the love of their life.

But when the yacht's owner appears, he immediately draws the man himself, only to find the solidly muscled man he was sure he saw on deck looks much different in the flesh.
    Naga shifter Bran is instantly drawn to his mate and ensures that when he greets the man who's drawing him, his appearance is far more to the taste of his mate to be.
    However, Bran has more problems than just finding a way of revealing the truth of his nature to Harlon. Estranged from his family, he's forced to return home only to find his father has arranged Bran's engagement to a partner of his own choosing.
    Bran sends his closest friend and confidante Tevy to Harlon. Both to explain what's happened and ensure Harlon attends the party to announce him as his fated mate. But when Tevy fails to return, Bran becomes concerned about his friend's safety.
    Can Bran challenge and defeat his father to claim his rightful mate?

    In the swirl of Philadelphia at the end of Prohibition, Leyb meets Charles. They are at a former speakeasy called Cricket's, a bar that welcomes, as Charles says in his secondhand Yiddish, feygeles. Leyb is startled; fourteen years in amerike has taught him that his native tongue is not known beyond his people. And yet here is suave Charles, a Black man from the Seventh Ward, a fellow traveler of Red Emma's, speaking Jewish to a young man he will come to call Lion. 
     
     
     
    Lion is haunted by memories of life before, in Zatelsk, where everyone in his village, everyone except the ten non-Jews, a young poet named Gittl, and Leyb himself, was taken to the forest and killed. 
     
     
     
    And then, miraculously, Gittl is in Philadelphia, too, thanks to a poem she wrote and the intervention of a shadowy character known only as the Baroness of Philadelphia. And surrounding Gittl are malokhim, the spirits of her siblings. 
     
     
     
    Moriel Rothman-Zecher's Before All the World lays bare the impossibility of escaping trauma, the necessity of believing in a better way ahead, and the power that comes from our responsibility to the future. It asks the most essential question: What do you intend to do before all the world?
