After a family tragedy, the house was shuttered and Bronwyn was convinced that William existed only in her imagination. Now, twenty years later Bronwyn inherits Thorne Manor. And when she returns, William is waiting. William Thorne is no longer the boy she remembers. He’s a difficult and tempestuous man, his own life marred by tragedy and a scandal that had him retreating to self-imposed exile in his beloved moors. He’s also none too pleased with Bronwyn for abandoning him all those years ago. As their friendship rekindles and sparks into something more, Bronwyn must also deal with ghosts in the present version of the house. Soon she realizes they are linked to William and the secret scandal that drove him back to Thorne Manor.

Download or read book Genetic Twists of Fate written by Stanley Fields and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2010-09-24 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How tiny variations in our personal DNA can determine how we look, how we behave, how we get sick, and how we get well. News stories report almost daily on the remarkable progress scientists are making in unraveling the genetic basis of disease and behavior. Meanwhile, new technologies are rapidly reducing the cost of reading someone's personal DNA (all six billion letters of it). Within the next ten years, hospitals may present parents with their newborn's complete DNA code along with her footprints and APGAR score. In Genetic Twists of Fate, distinguished geneticists Stanley Fields and Mark Johnston help us make sense of the genetic revolution that is upon us. Fields and Johnston tell real life stories that hinge on the inheritance of one tiny change rather than another in an individual's DNA: a mother wrongly accused of poisoning her young son when the true killer was a genetic disorder; the screen siren who could no longer remember her lines because of Alzheimer's disease; and the president who was treated with rat poison to prevent another heart attack. In an engaging and accessible style, Fields and Johnston explain what our personal DNA code is, how a few differences in its long list of DNA letters makes each of us unique, and how that code influences our appearance, our behavior, and our risk for such common diseases as diabetes or cancer.

Book excerpt: From a woman who’s made her living researching breast cancer—and who lived through it herself—a personal yet practical guide to the medical and emotional facets of this life-changing diagnosis A leading oncologist at the University of California San Francisco, Dr. Pamela Munster has advised thousands of women on how to cope with the realities of breast cancer, from diagnosis through treatment and recovery. But her world turned upside down when, at forty-eight years old and in otherwise perfect health, she got a call saying that her own mammogram showed “irregularities.” That single word thrust her into a wholly new role—as patient, and not only that of cancer but of the feared BRCA gene mutation as well. Suddenly, she realized that being a true “expert” in a disease was far beyond the scope of her medical training, and that she had a lot to learn if she wanted to hold onto her precious life. Weaving together her personal story with groundbreaking research on BRCA—responsible for breast cancer and many other inherited cancers affecting both women and men—Twisting Fate is an inspiring guide to living with the uncertainties of cancer. With authority, insight, and compassion, Dr. Munster uses her voice to create a safe space for genuine healing and honesty in a world otherwise too-often dominated by fear—and she is living proof of how important it is to embrace all the twists and turns of fate.

One day Zach will come around. Meanwhile, I've built a life for myself in northern Montana, pursuing my college degree while working hard toward certification in high-risk alpine search and rescue on the side. And perhaps I've kept the danger part a secret from my two dads. After all, what they don't know won't hurt them... Everything's going exactly as planned until my dads send Zach to check on me just as I'm dealing with an ex who doesn't understand the meaning of the word no. It's bad enough Zach still thinks of me as a child; now he also thinks I'm incapable of looking out for myself. I need to get him off my back before he finds out I'm not heading to Wyoming for summer break like everyone thinks. I'm going to Glacier National Park to learn how to rappel from helicopters... Zach Two years ago I wanted something I couldn't have, so I threw myself back into my job as an Army Ranger and wound up scarred in more ways than one. When the army dumps my sorry self back into the real world, it's time to start over. I accept a summer job teaching high-risk search and rescue. On the way there, all I have to do is peek in on little Lucky Reed and make sure he's okay. He's not. Someone has it out for him, and I'll be damned if I'm going to let him get hurt on my watch. My plan is to keep him safe until he heads south for his summer job playing trail guide to tourists. Once he's gone, I'll be free to head to Glacier where my biggest challenge will be keeping a handful of alpine search and rescue students safe as they learn how to dangle from helicopters high above the Rocky Mountains. It's all fine. Until it's not. Danger follows us to Glacier, and by the time I finally start seeing Lucky as more than the awkward teenager he used to be, I wonder if it's too late to convince him that this scarred soldier sees him as anything but little anymore.

Book excerpt: This is a love story set in the middle of a fantastic adventure. Jason loves flying. While he earns his living as a charter pilot, for fun he races his World War II vintage P-51 Mustang. When he is assigned to fly a single passenger to Colorado, he has no idea that this charter flight will change his life forever. It is not until he meets the passenger at the airplane that he is pleasantly surprised to discover that she is an ex-girlfriend, Juneko. They had separated several years ago and had not had contact since. Their meeting seemed to be a chance encounter of old friends, but fate shows that is not so. A hidden intelligence has much greater plans for them beyond the completion of a simple charter flight. Their flight is intercepted and redirected to another world. Surprisingly the inhabitants appear to be human and their technology is not that different from the technology the two travelers left behind on Earth although there are a few startling differences. The reasons for these similarities and differences become clear in time. Initially it causes the two travelers no end of confusion. Juneko and Jason have arrived at a planet that is on the brink of a worldwide war. An evil presence is bent on using the countries it already controls to conquer the rest. Jason's and Juneko's main questions are: how did they get there, why were they brought there, and how can they get home. Even as they try to find the answers to these questions they are drawn into the international tensions that are about to produce open conflict on a global basis. There are no nuclear weapons here to produce brief, impersonal but highly deadly war. These battles will be fought by soldiers, sailors, and pilots on a much more intimate basis. As Jason and Juneko befriend the people trying to stave off the evil forces that are driving this planet to war, they find that their own values drive them to sign up to join the military and help. Jason and Juneko, previously separated for years, now find that the spark of love between them still exists. The uncertainty of war gives their relationship an urgency that they can hardly stop. Always in the back of their minds are the questions of why they are there and how can they get home. Their duties in the war pull them apart for a time and the stresses of day to day fighting put survival ahead of thoughts of getting home. Still they both wonder what strange TWIST OF FATE brought them to this world and this war. In time they begin to glimmer the truth but it is a truth that shocks them to their core beings. Their love, the war, and the strange destiny that brought them to this place change them both forever.
