Back Cover: 
"I can't see Jupiter," Joseph said. "The moon's too bright. And I don't know where she is."
"It's where it always is," I said.
"No, it isn't."
He wrapped his arms around himself. When he finally turned, I could see his breath in the moonlight.
"I'm going to find her," he said. "I'm not going to stay alone."
"You're not alone."
He shook his head.
"You're not."
"I'm alone," he said.
"You've got me," I said.
He laughed, but not a happy laugh. "Jackie, I'm a whole lifetime ahead of you." 

Side cover:
WHEN JACK MEETS his new foster brother, he already knows three things about him:
Joseph almost killed a teacher.
He was incarcerated at a place called Stone Mountain. 
He has a daughter. Her name is Jupiter. And he has never seen her. 
What Jack doesn't know, at first, is how desperate Joseph is to find his baby girl.
Or how urgently he, Jack, will want to help.
But the past can't be shaken off. Even as new bonds form, old wounds reopen. The search for Jupiter demands more from Jack than he can imagine. This tender, heartbreaking novel is Gary D. Schmidt at his best.

I didn't exactly choose to be stolen at four years old. But the French underworld isn't big on consent. One minute I was Donatella Acardi, Mafia royalty. The next? Just another stolen kid bleeding in someone else's basement. That's where I met Amir. We bonded over near-death experiences and shared trauma. Real cute stuff. Then Demetri found us-trained us, broke us, built us back. We became something the underworld whispered about when they thought no one was listening. Angela Della Morte. Morte Nera. The Angel of Death and the Black Death. It has a ring to it, doesn't it? We're not kids anymore. We're not victims either. And we have one job: burn the French Mafia to the ground. Starting with the Don who ruined everything. But revenge doesn't follow a clean checklist. Especially not when I'm suddenly face-to-face with the family I swore I'd never see again... Yay. Now I'm stuck balancing the ghost of who I was with the assassin I've become... while navigating a castle full of lies, power plays, surveillance systems, olive oil, and one very inconvenient slow-burn romance. The mission? Still on. But if I'm not careful, I might survive the job and still lose what's left of me. And let's be honest-I worked way too hard to become this unkillable. ⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆⋆˚𝜗𝜚˚⋆ ~Thank you so much for even taking a glance at this book.

They were hot and heavy in love before breaking apart and going their separate ways. Ellie left with a secret, and Tanner has no idea what's in store for him. All he knows is that he misses her and wants her back. So what happens when 3 years, a NFL quarterback, a ER nurse and a small secret mix? *I do NOT own the cover photo* *Mature Scenes and themes* ~~~~ I look at his sleeping figure and I know in my heart that he's my kid. Looking to the left I see a small girl behind Ellie. The child can't see me but, that doesn't stop me from looking at her. Holy shit, she has my eyes. How in the hell does she have my eyes? She looks just like Ellie, from her brown hair to her tan skin, to the way she talks. How is this possible? Looking down I see my daughter raise up and kiss Ellie on the cheek and saying "Promise!" while smiling. My heart stops as my eyes fill with tears. She talks just like Ellie, she smiles just like Ellie. Ellie sits beside her and watches her fall asleep before turning around. She has major explaining to do. "You...we...I... have children, you didn't tell me?" is the only thing I can rasp out with tears threatening to escape my eyes. The only thing I have cried for is Ellie but, right now I want to cry for my kids. I know they are mine, in my gut I know it.

"Whenever I feel the need for religion, I go out at night and paint the stars." Eliza never knew the true meaning of having a family. Adopted as a child, she grew up in a cold home, where neglect and indifference were the rule. The only affection she ever knew came from her grandmother, whose death left an unfillable void. Since then, her brother has been her only safe harbor, offering the support she would never receive otherwise. Amid it all, Eliza found refuge in something unexpected: the moon, her silent confidant on nights when she needed to escape reality. Everything changes when Eliza earns a spot at Manhattan State University. A new and challenging world opens before her - a universe of power, money, and people hiding secrets no one dares to reveal. Amid betrayals, threats, and dangerous choices, she will discover that behind the veneer of normalcy, violence and injustice lurk closer than anyone suspects. In the city that never sleeps, Eliza will have to face forces far beyond her control. Trafficking, abuse, manipulation, and lurking danger turn every step into a choice between survival and getting lost.

Piper started to hyperventilate as she clutched her head. Jason tried to soothe her and tell her to breathe and all the rest, but to no avail. Suddenly, Piper's hands dropped to her sides and she fell into Jason's arms. "Pipes?" Jason breathed. She did not respond, only stared straight ahead at the sky with no expression on her face. "No!" He screamed as he cried over her body. Then, a hooded figure appeared and Piper's body shimmered away. "Wha-?" Jason started as he looked up to the figure. "Who are you?" He asked with wide and confused eyes. "That doesn't matter. Let's get to the point." The figure said. She was female. "If you want Piper back, give me Allie." The woman said. Jason squinted his eyes as he asked "Are you asking me to pick between my wife and my daughter?" "No, frankly I did not know that you had a daughter." The woman responded. "Then who?" Jason asked. "Allie White." The woman responded. ALL RIGHTS TO RICK RIORDIAN THIS IS A SEQUEL TO 'THE FORBIDDEN CHILD'.
