He wanted to be it for her. All she ever wanted. All she ever needed. Morgan Rayhill has it all. As the younger sister of a famous actor, she never wants for anything. The glitz of New York’s club scene, however, is starting to lose its luster. She needs a purpose that doesn’t depend on her brother’s money. The trouble is she doesn’t have any of the right talents for a real job. She knows how to party, but that isn’t going to pay the bills. Not that she even enjoys partying anymore. Ever since Morgan took a trip to Vermont and had one steamy night with sexy hockey player, Sawyer Lundin, nothing feels right. Not as right as being in his arms had. It was just one night, so why can’t she stop thinking about him? Sawyer can’t stop thinking about that one night either. Normally, all his effort is aimed at helping the Rhode Island Anchors set records on the ice. He never lets anyone pull his focus from the game. But the memory of being with Morgan is hard to shake. She made him feel like more than everyone’s favorite hockey player. When Sawyer runs into Morgan again, he’s more than willing to head back to Vermont with her and pick up where they left off. The heat between them is enough to melt an entire ice rink, but Sawyer brings a guest that could change everything for all of them. They’ll need to work as a team to turn this fling into forever. Is one kind goal enough to create a lifetime of winning?

How could Dolan’s stupid wink and a barely-there smile send such a scorching blaze through her? It’s Claire Rayhill’s turn. All her siblings have found true love in Maplehaven. Clearly, she’s next. She’s been on a ton of dates since moving to small-town Vermont, but those guys haven’t given her that forever vibe. None of them have made her feel like she did six years ago on her one and only night with Dolan Fairmont. Her brother’s sexy bodyguard shifted her world right off its axis. Then he left. Claire has been spinning ever since, but she’s determined to find a nice guy who wants to make a home with her. Until Dolan returns with the brick walls around his heart higher than ever. The mere sight of him has insults flying out of Claire’s mouth every time they are in each other’s company. Which is far too often. His singular focus on his job pisses her off, but the way he tracks her with those serious gray-blue eyes does something else entirely. Dolan isn’t sure his brick walls will hold now that he’s back in Claire’s orbit. The sass that comes out of her mouth doesn’t affect him half as much as what that same mouth did to him six years ago. He’s never forgotten the power of her kiss or the fire of her touch, but his line of work is risky. He knows all too well that putting people he loves in danger is always a mistake. Better to not have Claire at all than to lose her. When Dolan gets hurt, however, Claire surprises them both by volunteering to help. Will she regret that good deed? Will he? Is one kind home enough to tear down all the walls around their fragile hearts? One Kind Home is a second-chance, forced-proximity, small-town, contemporary romance with a bodyguard hero and a boudoir photography stylist who might just be picture perfect together.

Mason Harrister was certainly worth losing my wings. I died. I became an angel. Had a gorgeous set of wings and everything. Then the Sun Goddess kicked me out of paradise for something I didn’t do. My wings were burned right off my back. I’ve returned to Earth now, but not as a soul in a brand new human body. Instead, I’m in the adult one I had during my last time here in Moon Valley, Vermont. Now have to figure out what comes next. A help wanted sign draws me to a familiar diner in the small town. I secure a job and a place to stay because that’s what humans who want to survive do. When I step into the diner’s kitchen and meet the chef, however, the ovens aren’t the only thing heating up. Mason Harrister looks even better than I remembered, and the love we shared before I died instantly flares to life again. How do I tell him the truth about where I’ve been? Claiming to have been an angel? He’ll think I’m insane. But Mason has some secrets of his own. Secrets that show me there’s more than just humans rattling about on this planet. I’m not going to let that stop me from diving back into a relationship with Mason though. We have a second chance and we’re going for it. Until the Sun Goddess pays us a visit and threatens the future we’ve planned. Only she doesn’t expect what Mason and I are willing to do to keep our deep love alive.

I’d only just rejected my former mate mere hours ago, and now a bond was forming with a new one? Being an Omega werewolf bites, and not in the good way. It means I’m smaller, weaker, and submissive to other wolves. It means I need protection. I’ve had that protection from my mate, Vince, the Alpha of the Morelli pack, for five years now, and I’ve been happy with him. In fact, we’ve been trying to make pups of our own to continue the Morelli bloodline. One night when I come home from work, however, I discover Vince isn’t the wolf I thought he was. With the sting of betrayal hot in my veins, I break our mating bond and leave Vince. Now I’m an Omega on her own in the world, which is a dangerous thing to be. Lunai, the Moon Goddess, decides I deserve another shot at a fated mate though. All I have to do is rescue this new mate who has been abducted then I’ll have his protection. This plan has several problems. One: see that bit about me being an Omega werewolf. I can barely keep myself safe. How am I supposed to save another wolf? Two: Alpha wolves don’t take kindly to their mates breaking the bond. If I think Vince is going to just let me leave him and the Morelli pack, I seriously need my head examined. And three: this new mate Lunai wants to give me? Yeah, he’s Archer Sinclaire, also known as the Morelli pack’s biggest rival. Is a second chance at a forever love worth all this, or should I just accept my fate as a lone wolf?

This project presents in three volumes the Mishnah’s and the Tosefta’s first division, Zera‘im (Agriculture), organized in eleven topical tractates, together with a systematic history of the law of Zeraim in the Mishnah. To the exposition of the Halakhah on the chosen topic, the Mishnah-tractates are primary but complemented by the Tosefta’s presentation of its collection of glosses of the Mishnah’s law and supplements to that law. The Mishnah’s and the Tosefta’s tractates are integrated, with the Tosefta’s complement given in the setting of the Mishnah’s rules, and the whole is given in English translation. The presentation in each case encompasses an introduction, a form-analytical translation and commentary, a systematic integration of the Tosefta’s compositions into the Mishnah’s laws, an explanation of the details of the law, and an inquiry into how the Halakhah of the Mishnah and that of the Tosefta intersect, item by item.

George Perkins Marsh Prize, American Society for Environmental History VSNY Book Award, New York Metropolitan Chapter of the Victorian Society in America Hornblower Award for a First Book, New York Society Library James Broussard Best First Book Prize, Society for Historians of the Early American Republic With pigs roaming the streets and cows foraging in the Battery, antebellum Manhattan would have been unrecognizable to inhabitants of today’s sprawling metropolis. Fruits and vegetables came from small market gardens in the city, and manure piled high on streets and docks was gold to nearby farmers. But as Catherine McNeur reveals in this environmental history of Gotham, a battle to control the boundaries between city and country was already being waged, and the winners would take dramatic steps to outlaw New York’s wild side. “[A] fine book which make[s] a real contribution to urban biography.” —Joseph Rykwert, Times Literary Supplement “Tells an odd story in lively prose...The city McNeur depicts in Taming Manhattan is the pestiferous obverse of the belle epoque city of Henry James and Edith Wharton that sits comfortably in many imaginations...[Taming Manhattan] is a smart book that engages in the old fashioned business of trying to harvest lessons for the present from the past.” —Alexander Nazaryan, New York Times
