Fervor : a novel / by Lloyd, Toby Phips,author.;
"Hannah and Eric Rosenthal are devout Jews living in North London with their three children and Eric's father Yosef, a Holocaust survivor. Both intellectually gifted and deeply unconventional, the Rosenthals believe in the literal truth of the Old Testament and in the presence of God (and evil) in daily life. As Hannah prepares to publish a sensationalist account of Yosef's years in war-torn Europe-unearthing a terrible secret from his time in the camps-Elsie, her perfect daughter, starts to come undone. And then, in the wake of Yosef's death, she disappears. When she returns, just as mysteriously as she left, she is altered in disturbing ways."--

If love had a price / by Huang, Ana,author.;
Every heart has a price. She offered him $10,000 to seduce her father's gold-digging fiancée. He countered with $15,000 and a kiss -- from her. At any time he chose. Kris should've said no, but she was desperate to get rid of her stepmother-to-be, and the gorgeous actor with the wicked grin was perfect for the job. So she agreed to his terms -- not knowing that doing so would cost her a lot more than money and a kiss ... He did it for the money -- which he desperately needed. The kiss was just a bonus -- or so he told himself. Melting an ice princess like Kris started as a challenge, but by the time Nate realized there was more to Kris than meets the eye, it was too late: he had fallen. But they're not just from opposite sides of the track -- they're from different worlds. And when those worlds collide, Kris and Nate must decide whether they're willing to give up what they have for what could be.
