Is love worth losing everything you worked for? The last thing single dad, Cris Sanchez, considered when he set aside his ambitious music career was handing his shattered heart over to anyone else. Except, nowadays the widower’s claim to fame feels rather cliche– He’s been admiring his boss’s daughter from afar for years And wouldn’t you know, about the time Cris gets his son to stop asking why his former babysitter can’t be his mother, Daveigh announces she’s coming home from college. Contending with the impending loss of a confidant they’ve both shared, Daveigh Cavanaugh hasn’t garnered the courage to reveal the real reason she’s returned to Kingsbrier. And she’s definitely not sharing her sob story with her father’s ranch and vineyard manager. After all, Daveigh once took a bold, albeit drunken, leap by kissing the rugged and handsome older man. The proof of her naivete? Daveigh still ponders what she’d have given up, if Cris hadn’t pushed her away. The painful lesson was obvious: enduring happiness was meant for the other quintuplets. But as grief draws them closer, and their friendship intensifies, Doubt creeps in for Cris that raising his child was the only second chance he needed. Can Cris relinquish the past that haunts him before Daveigh leaves the ranch for good, or will the two spend a lifetime denying their deeper feelings?

A remarkable history of the two-centuries-old relationship between the United States and China, from the Revolutionary War to the present day From the clipper ships that ventured to Canton hauling cargos of American ginseng to swap Chinese tea, to the US warships facing off against China's growing navy in the South China Sea, from the Yankee missionaries who brought Christianity and education to China, to the Chinese who built the American West, the United States and China have always been dramatically intertwined. For more than two centuries, American and Chinese statesmen, merchants, missionaries, and adventurers, men and women, have profoundly influenced the fate of these nations. While we tend to think of America's ties with China as starting in 1972 with the visit of President Richard Nixon to China, the patterns—rapturous enchantment followed by angry disillusionment—were set in motion hundreds of years earlier. Drawing on personal letters, diaries, memoirs, government documents, and contemporary news reports, John Pomfret reconstructs the surprising, tragic, and marvelous ways Americans and Chinese have engaged with one another through the centuries. A fascinating and thrilling account, The Beautiful Country and the Middle Kingdom is also an indispensable book for understanding the most important—and often the most perplexing—relationship between any two countries in the world.
