“Fasten your seatbelts and get ready for the adventure of a lifetime” in this whirlwind romance of luxury, passion, and intrigue (Melanie Dobson). Anna St. James’s new job is a dream come true: personal flight attendant to billionaire, Stuart Manning. From Venice to Paris to Mai Khao Beach, she’s visiting the world’s hottest destinations. With access to fabulous haute couture fashions, she’s a star attraction herself at movie premieres and parties around the globe. There’s just one thing missing: the true love she left behind. Tennis pro Cade Williams’s own career was put on hold after a tragic accident. Now on the mend, he understands Anna’s commitments—even if the distance between them is hard to reconcile. So is the question he’s afraid to ask: out of the hundreds of women who’d have done anything to be at Manning’s beck and call . . . why Anna? That’s when Anna’s jet-setting life takes a turbulent detour, and she’s ushered into the shadows of a mysterious new stranger. Realizing that Manning could want more than she’s willing to give, Anna wonders what she must do next, and what’s at risk, to stay true to herself and the man she loves.

Grape Man of Texas is the first biography of Thomas Volney Munson (1843-1913), the internationally recognized horticulturist who developed over 300 new varieties of grapes, some of which are still grown today on almost every continent. He is perhaps best known for his work in fighting the phylloxera epidemic of the late nineteenth century, which nearly destroyed the world's vineyards. His solution—grafting vinifera onto certain resistant native rootstocks from Texas—earned him the Chevalier du Merite Agricole in the French Legion of Honor and numerous accolades. This second edition introduces new insights into the phylloxera period, Munson's many papers and publications, and his far-sighted grasp of the needs of twentieth century agriculture and transportation. It details the continuing influence of both his research and his hybrid grapes on modern viticulture and new varieties of vitis that have been bred from them around the world.

This book discusses how China’s transformations in the last century have shaped its arts and its philosophical aesthetics. For instance, how have political, economic and cultural changes shaped its aesthetic developments? Further, how have its long-standing beliefs and traditions clashed with modernizing desires and forces, and how have these changes materialized in artistic manifestations? In addition to answering these questions, this book also brings Chinese philosophical concepts on aesthetics into dialogue with those of the West, making an important contribution to the fields of art, comparative aesthetics and philosophy.
