Book Description
Torn between love and commitment. I was the girl with the plan. The girl that had it all together. Fate laughed at me. My life quickly became a destructive tornado, me in the middle. And as I sit here, with everything spinning around me, I feel lost, hopeless, and undeserving. I should have seen the signs. I should have fought harder for answers. Instead, I betrayed him in a way that breaks me more than him. Every decision has a consequence. To move on is to leave something behind. There are three hearts on the line. At least one is going to be broken regardless of the direction. One is safe. The other is dangerous. Dangerous in ways that you don’t come back from. The biggest problem of it all is that it’s not about me anymore, or them, but about him. He didn’t ask to be drug into this. Love brought him here. So, as I stand at the crossroads, which way do I go? The path of least resistance, or the path that will set me free . . . Note from the author: This is not written to be read as a standalone. If you have not read book one, Accepted fate, or book two, Twisting Fate, please read those first. Mature content. Series undergoing editing and cover change. Re-edited and released April 2018.

Book Description
Life is cruel. I tried so hard to avoid pain, to live carefully, and to keep a level head until I was ready to settle down . . .much later. Why is it that the people who don’t want to take risks get pushed into them the most? All I wanted was to make it to graduation with my friends, to go to college, and to focus on cheerleading—something that made me happy. I never asked for this—any of it. But now, here I am with a gaping hole in my chest. I can barely breathe. I didn’t want to need him, but I do. And he left me. How could he do this to me after making me love him? I wish I could hate him. Maybe then my heart could mend. I have a secret. But it won’t be a secret for long. I don’t think I can do this alone. He found me—someone that’s earned my trust over the years. He would never hurt me. And that’s what makes him more appealing. Then he made me an offer that’s hard to refuse. And just when I thought things were getting better, the biggest twist of them all was thrown in. If my heart survives the shock, which do I choose? Either way, someone will lose. FATE SERIES, #3

Book Description
Investigating the reality and significance of racial categories, Remapping Race in a Global Context examines the role of race in human genomics, biomedicine, and struggles for social justice around the world. In this book, biologists, anthropologists, historians, and philosophers inspect critical questions around the biological reality of race and how it has been understood in different national and regional contexts. The essays also examine debates on the usefulness of race in medical and epidemiological studies. With a focus on the fields of human genomics and biomedicine, this book presents critical findings on whether and how race might be ethically and epistemologically justified in our age of personalized medicine, mass surveillance, and biased algorithms. The book will be of interest to researchers and advanced students in a broad range of scientific and humanistic disciplines, including biology, anthropology, geography, philosophy, cultural or community studies, critical race theory, and any field concerned with the deep racial dividing lines running across societies globally.

Book Description
Congo's past is painted as a gallery of horrors! Looting of King Leopold, a precursor to Hitler and Stalin! Holocaust, hands cut off, whipping, red rubber, forced labour, etc. In fact, all these atrocities have been fueled by interested foreigners. For the first time, a well documented Congolese tests the accuracy of all told and untold stories. His captivating work reveals how major issues have been changed and outright falsified. Why? There is an underlying racism. That is gripping! This book is the first volume of a Trilogy that unfolds major, continuous, and disgraceful fake news (Vol 1), puts King Leopold on trial with XXIst century criteria (Vol 2), and tells 135 years of comprehensive and dignified history (Vol 3)! Indeed, the truth about the Congo’s past comes from Congolese living in the Congo ! The author, Marcel Yabili, is a lawyer. He has been living and acting permanently in the Congo for 50 years. He shares his testimonies and observations in scientific, literary, and artistic works, articles and blogs, as well as in his family museum of collective memory.
