It was Dawn for me. And I’m totally a Mary Anne, too.

Now Available: “Sideshow”
by Amy Stilgenbauer
Suprema laced her pinky
finger through Abby’s. The sweet, gentle gesture moved Abby more than she liked
to admit. It was a simple thing, small, unassuming, but it sent a thrill
through her every time, as if a connection had opened between them with just
this one, almost unnoticeable, contact.
Summary
Abby Amaro wants to sing at La Scala Opera House, but she’s a good girl, and in 1957 good girls get married. Still, when she receives her first marriage proposal, she freezes, knowing the way her suitor makes her feel bodes trouble. When he won’t take no for an answer, she flees, joining up with a traveling carnival.
Thanks to a burlesque trapeze artist and the world’s saddest clown, Abby bides her time and fits in until she can rejoin the world she knows. She doesn’t expect a sideshow strongwoman named Suprema, who captures her imagination. As the carnival makes its way across the Midwest, Abby learns much more than she had ever imagined—about herself, about her identity, and, most importantly, about love.
