Immortal / by Tan, Sue Lynn,author.;
"Plagued by chronic pain and fatigue, Liyen is the scion of the Tianxian court, a mortal kingdom enclosed by the walls of the Immortal Realm. The people there are the bulwark against mortal incursions into this sacred place, and in return they are protected from the demonic Asura. But when her father--the Lord of Tianxia--steals a magical flower from the immortal queen they owe fealty to, his punishment becomes Liyen's burden: the throne of Tianxia. Before he died, he asked Liyen to do one thing: free their people from the Queen of the Golden Desert. Resolved to do exactly that--all while trying to maintain her tenuous control of her own ministers--she is escorted to the Immortal Realm by the dark and dangerous God of War. She has seen him in action before: he was the one who rained fire upon their home to reclaim what her father had stolen, and he was also the one who stood by as her father died. Liyen hates this mysterious warrior ... and hates that he has depths that are not reflected in the legends she's heard about him. Both of them are hiding secrets. Both of them have duties that require them to do whatever must be done, no matter who might be hurt. But both of them are also alone. Both are also in pain. And they are finding out the person who might be their greatest enemy is the one who knows your heart the best"--

The good sister / by Hepworth, Sally,author.;
"Sally Hepworth, the author of The Mother-In-Law, delivers a knock-out of a novel about the lies that bind two sisters. From the outside, everyone might think Fern and Rose are as close as twin sisters can be: Rose is the responsible one, with a home and a husband and a fierce desire to become a mother. Fern is the quirky one, the free spirit, the librarian who avoids social interaction and whom the world might just describe as truly odd. But the sisters are devoted to one another and Rose has always been Fern's protector from the time they were small. Fern needed protecting because their mother was a true sociopath who hid her true nature from the world, and only Rose could see it. Fern always saw the good in everyone. Years ago, Fern did something very, very bad. And Rose has never told a soul. When Fern decides to help her sister achieve her heart's desire of having a baby, Rose realizes with growing horror that Fern might make choices that can only have a terrible outcome. What Rose doesn't realize is that Fern is growing more and more aware of the secrets Rose, herself, is keeping. And that their mother might have the last word after all. Spine tingling, creepy, utterly compelling and unpredictable, The Good Sister is about the ties that bind sisters together ... and about the madness that lurks where you least expect it"--

The lost shtetl : a novel / by Gross, Max,author.;
"What if there was a town that Hitler missed? For over fifty years the tiny Jewish shtetl of Kreskol has existed virtually untouched and unchanged. Spared of the Holocaust and Cold War, Kreskol has enjoyed an isolated peace. But when a marriage dispute spirals out of control, Kreskol is suddenly rediscovered and brought into the 21st Century. Pesha is in a loveless, arranged marriage and summons the courage to escape Kreskol on foot. But when her husband goes after her, panicked town leaders (protecting secrets of their own) send a woefully unprepared young man out to bring them home. The orphaned outcast named Yankel-unlearned, functionally illiterate (his Yiddish is useless to the modern-day outside world), and tagged with an inconceivable origin story-soon finds himself in the care of a psych ward. But when the truth comes out about his origins, his name is splashed across the covers of Polish newspapers. Ready or not, Poland commits to returning Yankel to Kreskol, and reintegrating the town that time forgot. In the course of doing so, the devious origins of the town's disappearance come into the light. And what has become of those runaways? Kreskol, torn asunder by disagreement between those embracing change and those clinging to its old world ways, may soon be forced to make a choice or disappear altogether"--
