After nine years Kate broke the one and only rule she and her boss, M, made—don’t fall in love. But the weekends away, the sweet nothings whispered in her ear, and the secret rendezvous at work functions all got to her. He was her biggest weakness, and she would do anything he asked. But then he started pulling away. It got worse when the new intern, Chelsea, was promoted. Her revealing clothes and flirtatious nature made Kate instantly dislike her, and M seemed to need Kate less and less. And then the unthinkable happened. It wasn’t just that she’d woken up alone the morning after telling M she loved him or that he hadn’t even texted her in the days after. No. It was M kissing Chelsea on New Year’s Eve. Kate struggles to forget the past, tries to get over M, but she can’t get him out of her head. She moves away, starts a new life, but nothing seems to work. She finally sees a glimmer of hope when she meets a handsome new man on her way to her sister’s wedding. But when M re-enters her life she needs to make a choice: keep pining after M or move on with her life.

Misha has just moved in next door to Kotarou Higuchi and swears she will protect him at all costs. Unfortunately, she's not too familiar with the ordinary world, as she is an angel who has lived in Heaven until recently. She has no idea how things work on earth and ends up causing more trouble.
Towering over deserts, arid scrublands, and dry tropical forests, giant cacti grow throughout the Americas, from the United States to Argentina—often in rough terrain and on barren, parched soils, places inhospitable to people. But as David Yetman shows, many of these tall plants have contributed significantly to human survival. Yetman has been fascinated by columnar cacti for most of his life and now brings years of study and reflection to a wide-ranging and handsomely illustrated book. Drawing on his close association with the Guarijíos, Mayos, and Seris of Mexico—peoples for whom such cacti have been indispensable to survival—he offers surprising evidence of the importance of these plants in human cultures. The Great Cacti reviews the more than one hundred species of columnar cacti, with detailed discussions of some 75 that have been the most beneficial to humans or are most spectacular. Focusing particularly on northwestern Mexico and the southwestern United States, Yetman examines the role of each species in human society, describing how cacti have provided food, shelter, medicine, even religiously significant hallucinogens. Taking readers to the exotic sites where these cacti are found—from sea-level deserts to frigid Andean heights—Yetman shows that the great cacti have facilitated the development of native culture in hostile environments, yielding their products with no tending necessary. Enhanced by over 300 superb color photos, The Great Cacti is both a personal and scientific overview of sahuesos, soberbios, and other towering flora that flourish where few other plants grow—and that foster human life in otherwise impossible places.
