Forbidden Office Affair
He saved her career—but what does he want in return? Jiang Caini was just trying to survive her new job when she became the scapegoat in a brutal office power struggle. Targeted, isolated, and on the verge of collapse, she never expected the aloof executive vice president, Pei Zhengting, to be the one offering silent protection. Cold. Calculating. Impossible to read. Pei Zhengting steps in with an offer she can’t refuse—but every favor comes at a cost. In the shadows of the corporate hierarchy, their secret entanglement turns from a forced proximity arrangement into a dangerously addictive slow burn. She thought he was just her cold, demanding boss. She didn’t expect the possessive protector hiding beneath the suits and silence. When the truth comes to light, will she run—or fall deeper into the trap he’s laid with such ruthless patience? A sizzling enemies-to-lovers workplace romance featuring a possessive alpha CEO, forbidden attraction, and high-stakes emotional tension.
Women Migrants in Southern China and Taiwan
This book, based on extensive original research, explores the lives, the migratory experiences and the social, economic, and emotional practices of Chinese migrant women during their migrations and mobilities in China, from China to Taiwan, from Taiwan to China and in between the two countries. It illustrates how women on the move experience social contempt, misrecognition and economic marginalisation; how women migrants seek autonomy, economic independence, upward social mobility and modernity, but discover the Chinese inegalitarian social order and labour regimes which produce obstacles and impede their ambitions; and how old and new forms of subalternity are reproduced. Overall, the book emphasises what it feels like for the women migrants as they negotiate their way at the crossroad between subalternity and resistance, between subordinated labour and independent, digital entrepreneurship, and between an inegalitarian labour market and new, online opportunities for business and commerce.

Syntax-Phonology Interface
This book centers on theoretical issues of phonology-syntax interface based on tone sandhi in Chinese dialects. It uses patterns in tone sandhi to study how speech should be divided into domains of various sizes or levels. Tone sandhi refers to tonal changes that occur to a sequence of adjacent syllables or words. The size of this sequence (or the domain) is determined by various factors, in particular the syntactic structure of the words and the original tones of the words. Chinese dialects offer a rich body of data on tone sandhi, and hence great evidence for examining the phonology-syntax interface, and for examining the resulting levels of domains (the prosodic hierarchy). Syntax-Phonology Interface: Argumentation from Tone Sandhi in Chinese Dialects is an extremely valuable text for graduate students and scholars in the fields of linguistics and Chinese.

Screening Post-1989 China
This unique book investigates the tug-of-war between the free market economy and authoritative state regulation in Chinese culture after 1989. Contextualizing close textual readings of cinematic and television texts, both officially sanctioned and independently made, Wing Shan Ho illuminates the complex process in which cultural producers and consumers negotiate with both the state and the market in articulating new forms of subjectivity. Ho examines the types of Chinese subjects that the state applauds and aggrandizes in contrast to those that it condemns and attempts to eliminate. Her focus on the socialist spirit exposes inherent contradictions in the current Chinese project of nation-building. This comparative study shines a harsh light on these cultural products and on much more: the confluence between commerce and politics and popular culture, the interaction between state and individuals in popular culture, and the complexity of governmentality in an era of globalization.

Aunty Lee's Deadly Specials
The Singapore restaurant owner and amateur sleuth must solve a deadly case of poisoning in this "delicious sophomore entry [with] a sly bracing edge" ( Kirkus Reviews). Few know more about what goes on in Singapore than Rosie "Aunty" Lee. When a scandal over illegal organ donation makes news, she already has a list of suspects. There's no time to snoop, though—Aunty Lee's Delights is catering a brunch for local socialites Henry and Mabel Sung at their opulent house. Rumor has it that the Sung family fortune is in trouble, and Aunty Lee wonders if the gossip is true. But she's more than curious when Mabel and her son are found dead. The authorities blame it on Aunty Lee's special stewed chicken with buah keluak, a local black nut that can be poisonous if cooked improperly. Aunty Lee has never carelessly prepared a dish. She's certain the deaths are murder—and that they're somehow linked to the organ donor scandal. To save her business and her reputation, she's got to prove it—and unmask a dangerous killer whose next victim may just be Aunty Lee.
