Everything I thought I knew about my biological father and Mason's role in my life? Turns out, it was all a lie. Every. Last. Word.Now Mason's back.However, he offers no excuses, no explanations. He just wants me to be what he claims I've always been: his little girl.But the ache inside me won't be denied. The longing I feel isn't one of a little girl who misses her father.No.I need Mason to be more than just a father figure.More than a loving protector.I need him to be my Daddy.***Brace yourself for a twisty, forbidden romance so deliciously devious, it'll tie you up by your heartstrings and then drag you along for the ride. Like my Quick-and-Dirty Reads, it features a guaranteed melt-your-heart ending. But unlike those shorter stories, this is hardly a light-hearted romp.If you're a fan of very taboo older man/younger woman pairings, broody, protective Daddy figures, and contemporary Gothic vibes, then this book was tailor-made for your Kindle.

Plants are exposed to a wide range of environmental stresses that reduce and limit crop productivity. Biotic stress and abiotic stress are the two types of environmental stresses that affect plants. Some examples of abiotic stress are radiation, salinity, floods, drought, extreme temperatures, and heavy metals. These factors contribute towards the depletion of important crops across the world. Biotic stress, on the other hand, refers to the damage caused by various pathogens including weeds, fungi, insects, herbivores, nematodes and bacteria. Plants develop various strategies to combat the threats of biotic and abiotic stressors. On detecting environmental stress, plants produce the necessary cellular responses. The role of signaling pathways is crucial as it helps in detecting the external stress environment. This leads to plants producing an appropriate response, which may be biochemical or physiochemical in nature. The genetic code of the plants stores information with respect to the defense mechanisms that are activated when faced with stresses. This book includes some of the vital pieces of works being conducted across the world, on various topics related to plant stress biology. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
