The Fiery Ring by Gilbert Morris

The danger within could be more deadly than any peril she faces...

When a family tragedy leaves young Joy and Travis Winslow at the mercy of greedy relatives, they flee a life of certain servitude. Separated from her brother, Joy is rescued from dangerous vagrants by a handsome young circus performer. Chase takes her under his wing and helps her find work in a traveling circus.

Though Chase discourages it, Joy thrills to the danger of performing with the big cats. But her growing feelings for Chase only add to her uncertainty over the future. She must find her brother and recover what is rightfully theirs.

Unless she can arrive at some path to inner peace, the struggle between her love for Chase and her anger against those who wronged her may tear her world apart.
