by Megan Rapinoe with Emma Brockes - Memoir, Nonfiction

Only four years old when she kicked her first soccer ball, Megan Rapinoe developed a love --- and clear talent --- for the game at a young age. But it was her parents who taught her that winning was much less important than how she lived her life. From childhood on, she always did what she could to stand up for what was right --- even if it meant going up against people who disagreed. In ONE LIFE, Rapinoe invites readers on a remarkable journey, looking back on both her victories and her failures, and pulls back the curtain on events we know only from the headlines.

by Emma Brockes - Nonfiction

A chilling work of psychological suspense and forensic memoir, SHE LEFT ME THE GUN is a tale of true transformation: the story of a young woman who reinvented herself so completely that her previous life seemed simply to vanish, and of a daughter who transcends her mother’s fears and reclaims an abandoned past.
