The Scars of Her Past. Legends of Cirena, #5

The gods won't let her forget the past... Alia is a merchant with a dark secret- A scar she's desperate to put behind her. With her business partner's stall positioned in one of the most celebrated festivals in the city of the gods, she has a chance of finally earning enough money to start her own caravan and forget her time as an undercover agent. But not everyone likes the gods, and mage-hating extremists plot to destroy the city- And its innocent inhabitants. When a goddess requests Alia's help in rooting out the threat, Alia plans to pass the job to the city guard. She's no longer a soldier. Still, when she runs into the man responsible for her past scars-and possibly for the current threat-can she afford to stand aside? Investigate the menace to the city of the gods... read The Scars of Her Past today!  ~ Each of these Legends of Cirena stories can be read stand-alone: ~ * The Wind Mage of Maijev (Livena)* The Gryphon and the Mountain Bear (Nuaka)* The Restless Sands of Neel (Ro'nor)* The Cursed Halls of Kalecen (Hahven)* The Scars of Her Past (Alia)* The Dragons of the Mist (Zynia) ~ Crossovers (It will help to have read the previous stories involving the featured characters): ~ * The Wind Mage and the Wolf - Features Livena (The Wind Mage of Maijev) and Nuaka (The Gryphon and the Mountain Bear)* The Trial of Bells and Blood - Features Hahven (The Cursed Halls of Kalecen) and Alia (The Scars of Her Past)
