Book Title: Girl in the Arena

Author: Lise Haines

Review:
Girl in the Arena book cover If you love and enjoy The Hunger Games series you should check out Girl in the Arena; a thrilling, dark, high action novel. Lyn has no intention of becoming a gladiator's wife. When her stepdad is killed in an fight, she faces an impossible choice: to follow the corporate run Gladiator Sports Association's rules, which require her to marry his competitor, Über, or to protect herself and her family's future by entering the arena. Just like The Hunger Games, some scenes are disturbing and gruesome, but do not let that stop you from picking up this book, because it's sure to be the next hot series.
