Virginia, 2005: Lara Barnes is on top of the world-until her fiancé disappears on their wedding day. Desperate, her search for answers unexpectedly leads to her great-grandmother's journals and sweeps her into the story of a dark circus and a generational curse that has been claiming payment from the women in her family for generations.

My Review: This was a beautiful and wicked book with a lot of humor. I could not put this one down and I think readers are going to fall hard for this circus story. This historical fiction story is lovely and so engrossing that I am just not doing this one justice. The mystery and just everything comes together to blend a dazzling story.
