Story
Enslaved at a young age, Titus has known nothing but servitude and horrific torture. Through the years, his thirst for revenge against King Augustus has festered, and after a single attempt on the king's life, he finds purpose in the pit of gladiators. There he waits and prays to have another chance at his oppressor, and his prayers for revenge are answered by a mysterious woman named Aurelia. She offers him a life he had only seen in dreams, but in return, his quest for revenge comes with an unfathomable price.

Story
To discover what is true about ourselves, we often have to take a quest and undergo initiations that test us to the core. In this Celtic Heroine’s journey, a young modern-day woman, through a series of mystical events, realizes that she was a Lady of the Lake in a previous life. Believing she is a normal person just like any other, Nina has no idea of the mysteries that await her in Britain. She was, as it turns out, fifth century Nimue, the one responsible for sealing Merlin up in a tree until the hour of his return.

Growing up in a Russia plagued by homophobia, Maxym wrestles with his conflicting emotions toward Muslims and his own suppressed homosexuality. Alongside his innate psychopathic tendencies and an unsettling fascination with killing, his exceptional marksmanship skills make him a coveted asset.

Publisher's Summary
Joanne Greene grew up in Boston during the 1960s and ’70s, a turning point for women in the United States. Doors were opening wider, and Joanne walked through as many as she could. As a young woman, she dove headfirst into San Francisco radio and television, and went on to host and produce award-winning feminist and other timely features and talk shows for decades. Throughout, she worked at having a great marriage and being an exemplary parent. But underlying her high-achieving life was a sometimes-destructive need for control.
Vulnerability and dependency were okay...for other people. Joanne’s value was tied to how in charge, how together, and how productive she was. Then she suffered a traumatic accident—and it set her on a journey of discovery that taught her true power came in the still moments, the moments when she not only loosened her grip but even allowed herself to crack. In fragility, Joanne found, there was beauty—and possibility, too.
By Accident is a story about discovering that control is a seductive illusion and how letting go of the need for it can reveal great strength and lead us to even firmer ground.
