Don't let the humans know werewolves exist. Ember never meant to break the cardinal shifter law. But when she finds herself mated to a human professor studying alpha dominance, she realizes that Sebastien's analytical mind is a roadblock she'll struggle to surpass. Except...Sebastien isn't the only scientist on the trail of shifter-kind. When the professor is taken into custody by top-secret government agents, Ember vows to break into their headquarters and retrieve her imprisoned mate. Too bad her only ally is a werewolf enforcer duty bound to take out any threat to the long-term existence of the packs. And if Ember allows control over her own inner wolf to slip, she might very well become the cause of her human partner's demise. Dive into the second book in an urban fantasy series that's been described as a "fantastic story" full of "intrigue, suspense and bravado."

Eurasian
Author: Emma Teng
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520276272
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
In the second half of the nineteenth century, global labor migration, trade, and overseas study brought China and the United States into close contact, leading to new cross-cultural encounters that brought mixed-race families into being. Yet the stories of these families remain largely unknown. How did interracial families negotiate their identities within these societies when mixed-race marriage was taboo and “Eurasian” often a derisive term? In Eurasian, Emma Jinhua Teng compares Chinese-Western mixed-race families in the United States, China, and Hong Kong, examining both the range of ideas that shaped the formation of Eurasian identities in these diverse contexts and the claims set forth by individual Eurasians concerning their own identities. Teng argues that Eurasians were not universally marginalized during this era, as is often asserted. Rather, Eurasians often found themselves facing contradictions between exclusionary and inclusive ideologies of race and nationality, and between overt racism and more subtle forms of prejudice that were counterbalanced by partial acceptance and privilege. By tracing the stories of mixed and transnational families during an earlier era of globalization, Eurasian also demonstrates to students, faculty, scholars, and researchers how changes in interracial ideology have allowed the descendants of some of these families to reclaim their dual heritage with pride.
