Book excerpt: When "crazy" runs in your family and your namesake is known for walking into a river with a pocket full of rocks, a girl kind of wants to avoid tempting fate at all costs. For Virginia Nichols, the only way to dodge that bullet is to be perfect at everything: school, student council, life. Too bad it's all a lie, and underneath the perfection...Virginia is lost. Ryder Blackstock knows a thing or two about being born into fate. The talents passed down from his father aren't exactly normal; instead of learning how to throw a fastball, he was taught to hot-wire a car like a pro and pick any pocket in sight. He's got criminal blood, just like his old man. And as soon as he turns eighteen, he'll be living life on the run with his dad. When Ryder and Virginia meet on the beach, it seems they couldn't be more different. Soon they discover they're both trapped in their lives-Virginia denying her fate, Ryder embracing his. Like the rocks in Virginia Woolf's pockets, the weight of their destinies will pull them under. But being together brings out pieces of themselves they didn't know existed-pieces that make them want to take fate into their own hands and rewrite their destinies...if it's not too late. "Whenever I read Nyrae Dawn, I am reminded that words are her art, and she wields her paintbrush with all the skill of Rembrandt. The tender romance of Ryder and Virginia is palpable on the page, and the story sings with all the complexities of the interwoven plot. I read late into the night to finish this one, and once again, Nyrae has managed a masterpiece. LOVED." USA Today and New York Times Bestselling Author Courtney Cole "The Weight of Destiny unfolds like a storm. It is dark and electric and incredibly romantic. I lost and found myself. The characters are so vivid, so alive, you'll forget anything but them exists." David James author of Between the Stars and Sky "The Weight of Destiny is YA at its absolute finest. Nyrae Dawn flawlessly brought two seemingly broken characters to life and showed everyone deserves a second chance at love and life. This breathtaking storytelling will blow you away." USA Today Bestselling Author Tiffany King "The Weight of Destiny is art at its best, Ryder and Virginia canvasses on which the good and bad of life and love unfold in brilliant, true color."

Book excerpt: Destiny I was doing fine. Just fine. I'd long since left my cheating, two-timing, slime ball of a husband, and was doing well making my way in the world. I had a career that I loved as a financial advisor, great friends, and family. I didn't need for anything. Especially not love. Don't get me wrong, I wasn't completely soured on the whole falling in love thing. However, after having my heart crushed once by the man who claimed to love me and only me, I wasn't exactly itching to take another walk down that aisle. Especially, not with another athlete of all people. Then, in walks Tyler Townsend. Or rather, I walked into his life. And from then on out, it was a struggle to keep my heart tucked behind the armor of self-defense I'd erected to prevent myself from getting hurt again. Tyler When you know, you know. Or so say, the men in my family. While I was never one to run from love, marriage or commitment, I knew it'd take a strong woman to handle everything that came with being with me. Not only was my family well connected and wealthy, but as one of the top quarterbacks in the NFL, I had made a success of my life on my own. In my world, women came a dime a dozen ... or so I thought. All of the teasing I'd done to my older brothers once they'd fallen in love was coming back to haunt me. I just knew it. Because as soon as Destiny McDonald blew into my world, all the games were over. No other woman would do. And I do anything to ensure that she knew it. And I do mean anything. Because this time I'm playing for keeps.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brings together new research that lays out the current state of contagion studies, from the perspective of media studies, monster studies, and the medical humanities. Offers fresh perspectives on contagion studies from disciplines such as the social sciences and the medical humanities, introducing new methods of collaboration and avenues of research, and demonstrating how these disciplines have already been working in parallel for several decades. Covers a wide variety of international media and contexts, including literature, film, television, public policy, and social networks. Includes key, recent case studies (including public health documents and the popular Netflix series Santa Clarita Diet) that have not yet been analysed anywhere else in the field. Bucks the current trend of going back to plague literature and historical plagues in the search for meaning to address current and late-20th century epidemics, diseases, and monsters.
