In ALMOST LOST, a novella by Joan Johnston, a teenage girl reports her best friend missing to the police and  triggers a desperate search to find a girl caught in the world of human trafficking.

ALMOST LOST was inspired by Katherine Chon of Washington, D.C., who launched Polaris Project in 2002. It is now one of the largest anti-human-trafficking organizations in the United States and Japan, reaching out to slavery victims, operating a national 24-hour hotline and advocating for stronger policy

Little by little, one person at a time, we can make our world a better place. The five dedicated women selected as this year's recipients of Harlequin's More Than Words award have done just that, by discovering a seed of compassion, and nurturing it to effect real change in their communities. To celebrate their accomplishments, five bestselling authors have honored the winners by writing short stories inspired by these real-life heroines.

We hope More Than Words inspires you to look into your heart and find the heroine who lives within.
