Book Description
What If a Secret From Your Past Turned Deadly? Country music star January Winters knew the rise to fame would be hard, but she never thought it would be deadly. When a stalker's attempts go from creepy to lethal, even the fearlessly independent Jan gives into her producer's demands that they hire a bodyguard. But that was before she realized who would be guarding her body... A knee injury might have ruined his football career, but it didn't stop Dino Machiavelli from becoming the best bodyguard in Vegas. He can literally pick and choose his assignments--and he never picks guarding diva celebrities. At least not until his boss makes one assignment impossible for him to refuse and he finds himself too close for comfort with the one girl that ripped out his heart fifteen years ago. Just as Dino and Jan start to wonder if it may not be too late to rekindle old feelings, the stalker's actions escalate. It appears the threat may be closer to Jan than she ever imagined and now she has to wonder, just exactly who in her inner circle can she really trust?

Book Description
In this "meticulously researched" account (New York Times Book Review), a Pulitzer Prize-winning author examines the dangers of a failing public health system unequipped to handle large-scale global risks like a coronavirus pandemic. The New York Times bestselling author of The Coming Plague, Laurie Garrett takes on perhaps the most crucial global issue of our time in this eye-opening book. She asks: is our collective health in a state of decline? If so, how dire is this crisis and has the public health system itself contributed to it? Using riveting detail and finely-honed storytelling, exploring outbreaks around the world, Garrett exposes the underbelly of the world's globalization to find out if it can still be assumed that government can and will protect the people's health, or if that trust has been irrevocably broken. "A frightening vision of the future and a deeply unsettling one . . . a sober, scary book that not only limns the dangers posed by emerging diseases but also raises serious questions about two centuries' worth of Enlightenment beliefs in science and technology and progress." -- Michiko Kakutani, The New York Times
