Anna is looking for the graves of her two murdered children, and for her ex-husband, who she remains convinced had a hand in their deaths. As she travels the country on her quest, anonymous in Muslim dress, she encounters the brutality and terrorism that characterize late 20th-century Algeria, where the once-oppressed are now the oppressors. The author, Anouar Benmalek, based the story on events in his own family, including the fact that Anna is a former trapeze artist. Originally published at $16.00 You save 91% off the cover price!

In UNTAMED, Jovilette Wilder is the feisty "Queen of the Wildcats"--the lion-tamer for Prescott’s Circus Colossus. Jovilette’s world is thrown into upheaval when the owner of the operation suddenly passes away and bequeaths the business to his swaggering lawyer son, Keane Prescott. While Jovilette is distrustful of Keane, she can’t resist the passionate pull he has on her, and she must learn to be as brave in love as she is in the lion tamer ring. In the similarly-themed LESS OF A STRANGER, Megan Miller works at Joyland, an amusement park owned by her grandfather. When the charismatic and sexy David Katcherton, or "Katch," comes by with an offer to buy the park, Meg is suspicious of his motives, but feels an undeniable desire for him. Uncertain whether to follow her head or her heart, Meg struggles to deride the true character of Katch. Originally published at $7.99 You save 87% off the cover price!
