<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> As a player in NERVE, an anonymous game of dares broadcast live online, high-schooler Vee is unhappy to be watched constantly but finds it exhilarating to be paired with handsome Ian taking ever riskier dares--until the stakes become too high. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>Inspiration for the major motion picture starring Emma Roberts and Dave Franco--a high-stakes online game of dares turns deadly in this suspenseful debut</b> <p/> When Vee is picked to be a player in NERVE, an anonymous game of dares broadcast live online, she discovers that the game <i>knows</i> her. They tempt her with prizes taken from her ThisIsMe page and team her up with the perfect boy, sizzling-hot Ian. At first it's exhilarating--Vee and Ian's fans cheer them on to riskier dares with higher stakes. But the game takes a twisted turn when they're directed to a secret location with five other players for the Grand Prize round. Suddenly they're playing all or nothing, with their lives on the line. Just how far will Vee go before she loses NERVE. <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> <b>Praise for NERVE by Jeanne Ryan</b> <p/>"Ryan's story is thought-provoking and unsettling...the ending goes off with a bang and a twist." <i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>Ryan questions the nature of entertainment and explores the concept of privacy in a world of increasingly sophisticated social media.
