At first I thought I was going to do YA books, but 1) YA is an age group, not a genre and 2) I actually came up with a theme where the books aren’t the exact same as they were last week! (Although there are many repeats) So without any further ado, here are my TOP TEN FAVORITE ALTERNATE HISTORY BOOKS<\/strong>:<\/p>\n No one expects a princess to be brutal. And Lada Dragwlya likes it that way. Ever since she and her gentle younger brother, Radu, were wrenched from their homeland of Wallachia and abandoned by their father to be raised in the Ottoman courts, Lada has known that being ruthless is the key to survival. She and Radu are doomed to act as pawns in a vicious game, an unseen sword hovering over their every move. For the lineage that makes them special also makes them targets.<\/p>\n Lada despises the Ottomans and bides her time, planning her vengeance for the day when she can return to Wallachia and claim her birthright. Radu longs only for a place where he feels safe. And when they meet Mehmed, the defiant and lonely son of the sultan, Radu feels that he\u2019s made a true friend\u2014and Lada wonders if she\u2019s finally found someone worthy of her passion.<\/p>\n But Mehmed is heir to the very empire that Lada has sworn to fight against\u2014and that Radu now considers home. Together, Lada, Radu, and Mehmed form a toxic triangle that strains the bonds of love and loyalty to the breaking point.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/divider.png\")
