An Enemies to Lovers Reunion Romance: Declan Gates never did know how to play nice…. His gaze drifted over the sun-glazed stone of the house, so different from the menacing blackened visage he remembered from his childhood. The power of the place still moved him. The dark ocean sprawled beneath the wide gray sky; the high granite cliffs; the wheeling, crying seagulls. The sharp, salt tang of the air scratched at a raw place inside him. He hadn’t been here for...what, ten years? He heard Lily’s car engine as she pulled down the drive. She’d brought him back. She always did have that kind of power over him. Blackrock High’s most likely to succeed, Lily Wharton was used to getting what she wanted. Once, long ago, he’d have given her anything. But this time lovely Lily Wharton wouldn’t get her way.

The Black Rock Desert, located in northwestern Nevada, has been the site of many human activities, from ancient hunters to the arrival of the pioneers to present-day motion pictures, land-speed records, commercial photography, and a weeklong art festival. This book focuses on the art history of the Black Rock Desert playa up until 1990, laying the groundwork for the larger, participatory art events of recent history. Events include art from the Lassen Trail; The Winning of Barbara Worth, starring Gary Cooper, in 1926; and a wild horse roundup as documented by Gus Bundy. Also included are recent works of art such as Doobie Lane and a croquet match in which trucks were used as mallets. Historical images feature the towns of Sulphur and Gerlach, nearby ranches, and the Empire gypsum mine.

If the West wishes to understand China better, it needs to appreciate the depth of thought and range of debate that is taking place within the Chinese political system.
