I Just Want to Be Loved

Casey Watson

After taking a few weeks off work, Casey is presented with a new foster child: 14-year-old Elise, whose Mum left her at just five years old. 
At first, she’s no trouble at all, that is until she falsely accuses another carer, Jan, of acting inappropriately towards her. It turns out this isn’t the first lie Elise has told – her previous carer was constantly following up allegations Elise had made of people bullying her, trying to have sex with her, or hurting her physically. With some reservations, Casey agrees to take Elise on long-term, but when she makes some dark claims about her mum, Casey doesn’t know whether to believe her. In any case, she is determined to find out the truth… 
Casey Watson, the Sunday Times bestselling author, offers a deeply personal and moving account of her experiences in fostering. The narrative, a gripping blend of autobiography and biography, delves into the themes of survival, relationships, and the social aspects of adoption. 
For fans of Linda Watson-Brown (Don't Say A Word), Katy Weitz (The Girl for the Job), Veronica Clark (Snatched), and Maggie Hartley (Battered, Broken, Healed).

Transformations in China -...

Jun Liu

Transformations in China explores the sweeping cultural, political, and economic changes that have reshaped China from ancient times to the modern era. This 3-in-1 volume covers pivotal periods in Chinese history, focusing on three major forces of transformation: Modernization and Reform, The Cultural Revolution, and The Silk Road. From the ancient trade routes that connected China to the rest of the world, to the turbulent policies of the 20th century, this book captures the resilience and complexity of a civilization in constant evolution.
The journey begins with the Silk Road, which served as the lifeblood of commerce and cultural exchange for centuries. More than a trade route, it was a corridor for sharing religions, inventions, languages, and ideas between East and West. The narrative then moves to the 20th century, examining The Cultural Revolution, a period of radical upheaval that profoundly altered Chinese society. Spearheaded by Mao Zedong, this political campaign reshaped education, tradition, and family life, leaving a lasting mark on Chinese identity.
Finally, the book explores Modernization and Reform, spotlighting China’s transition from a closed, agrarian state to a global economic superpower. Beginning with Deng Xiaoping’s reforms in the late 20th century, this section details the rapid industrialization, urbanization, and globalization that have defined modern China. Transformations in China presents a sweeping yet accessible account of how a nation has continuously redefined itself—often through conflict, always through change.
