On a mission to fulfill her grandmother's wishes, civilization-loving Roxanne Salyer was utterly at sea. Her car was crumpled in the California desert. Her cell phone had gone kaput. She was sandy, sunburned—sizzling to death! And then strong, sexy Jack Wheeler rode to her rescue…. Raised to nurture a career, not a family, Roxanne was out of her depth at Jack's ranch, which teemed with newborn critters!

But Roxanne didn't believe in giving in to temptation—until she tasted that first kiss____
This is the 3rd episode in the first season of Born to the Blade, an 11-episode serial from Serial Box. This episode written by Cassandra Khaw. For centuries the Warders' Circle on the neutral islands of Twaa-Fei has given the countries of the sky a way to avoid war, settling their disputes through formal, magical duels. But the Circle's ability to maintain peace is fading: the Mertikan Empire is preparing for conquest and the trade nation of Quloo is sinking, stripped of the aerstone that keeps both ships and island a-sky. When upstart Kris Denn tries to win their island a seat in the Warder’s Circle and colonial subject Oda no Michiko discovers that her conquered nation's past is not what she's been told, they upset the balance of power. The storm they bring will bind all the peoples of the sky together...or tear them apart.
During the "Must See TV" 1990s, Americans enjoyed such immensely popular sitcoms as Friends, Seinfeld, Home Improvement and The Drew Carey Show. Shows that did not make the ratings cut numbered in the hundreds--the emergence of new networks and cable channels airing original programming resulted in a vast increase in short-lived sitcoms over the previous decade. Some of these "flops" were actually quite good and deserved a better fate. The author revisits them--along with the "dramedies" of the day--with detailed entries providing production and broadcast information, along with critical analyses, and recollections by cast and crew members. A subsection highlights sitcoms that returned for an abbreviated second season. Dozens of cast and crew photographs are included.
Is there a more remarkable process than the creation of human life? Aided by little more than a bottle of wine, a Barry White tune and an agreeable mood, a woman and man can create a truly extraordinary organism.
