But as the three characters' paths intersect, their inner lives are revealed. Each emerges as a much more complicated individual than their simple bully, target, and witness labels.

Ready for a fresh start in a cozy house in the Berkshires, the plan is to focus on her photography, fix up her new house, and forget about her crash-and-burn love life. But fate has other plans for her when she meets Rowan Kennedy, the sexy electrician who had intended to buy her new house for himself. Rowan Kennedy is a single dad with a big chip on his shoulder.

When Sage is given reason to make her doubt Rowan's intentions, she’s convinced he's just the next in a long line of jerks who broke her heart. They both have scars from their pasts, and they both crave a fresh start. But can they overcome their fears and trust each other enough to take a chance on love?

Now, with time running out and their lives on the line, they have everything to fight for...and everything to lose.

Real Sex Films explores one of the most controversial movements in international cinema through an innovative interdisciplinary combination of theories of globalization and embodiment. Risk sociology, feminist film theory, and critical feminist mapping theory are brought together with concepts of production, narrative, genre, authorship, stardom, spectatorship, and social audience as several lenses of understanding and extension in ways of seeing real-sex cinema. Notions of personal subjectivity and critical distance, disciplinary co-operation and critique, and cinematic perceptions of the utopia and dystopia of love within risk modernity are the tensions exposed reflexively and in parallel, as each chapter focuses different lenses communicating intimacy, desire, risk and transgression. This book substantively, methodologically, and theoretically embraces and engages in its consideration of the images, ethics, double standards, and embodiments of brutal cinema. Crossing the boundaries of film studies, media and cultural studies, the ethnographic turn, risk sociology, feminist psychoanalytical, and geopolitical studies, this is a book for students, academics, as well as general and professional audiences.

In This Is a Picture and Not the World, Joseph Natoli employs the lingua franca of film itself—screenplay dialogue—as well as the more recent form of the political blog to present a hyperreal account of popular film as both a creator and a reflector of our post-9/11 mass psyche. Drawing on both classic and contemporary film examples, the book also offers a quasihistory of film genres, including science fiction, the western, film noir, and screwball comedy, emphasizing how these genres have been shaken up, recontextualized, recombined, turned self-reflexive, and parodied over the past couple of decades. Taken together, these satirical parodies of screenplays and blogs reveal and perform how our very gaze has shifted from modern to postmodern, from a direct view of the world to a filtered one.
I began MY SUBSTITUTE LIFE instead of retiring after twenty-five years in the classroom. This book of poetry is inspired by the next five years of my new life as a substitute teacher.
An occult thriller, scary, learned, and charitable in the true tradition of Charles Williams and his fellow Inklings, says T.A. Shippey, editor of The Oxford Book of Fantasy Stories. A remarkable witch's brew of supernatural, Christian, classical and scientific arcana.
