Darbury, England, 1814. Amelia Barrett gave her word. Keeping it could cost her everything.
Once, he was her dearest friend... but now he's a brutal, terrifying monster. In a world of recently warring orcs and men, Ella Riddell is determined to ignore it all. She's the wealthiest heiress in the realm -- and soon, she's to wed a lord, and become a real lady. Until the night her engagement-party ends in utter disaster, and Ella runs for the forest -- and straight into the powerful arms of a hulking, deadly orc. And it's not just any orc. It's Natt. The orc Ella made a secret, foolish pledge to, many years past... He's huge and shameless and vicious, not at all the gangly, laughing daredevil Ella remembers. And he's here with one shocking, scandalous aim: to wreak vengeance on Ella's betrothed. With her. With her hunger. Her surrender. Her undoing... Ella knows she should run, even if this deadly enemy was once a friend. Even if his scent drags up a dark, forbidden longing. Even if his kisses are the sweetest, filthiest thing she's ever tasted in her life... But will Ella truly risk her perfect future, for an orc? Will she face the bitter truths of the past, and brave the terrifying Orc Mountain, before more war rises to destroy them all? ______ Paperback edition also includes a bonus epilogue!
A newspaper magnate's daughters have been given everything they've ever wanted but will they ever find true love?
New York Times bestselling author Laura Thompson returns with Heiresses, a fascinating look at the lives of heiresses throughout history and the often tragic truth beneath the gilded surface. Heiresses: surely they are among the luckiest women on earth. Are they not to be envied, with their private jets and Chanel wardrobes and endless funds? Yet all too often those gilded lives have been beset with trauma and despair. Before the 20th century a wife’s inheritance was the property of her husband, making her vulnerable to kidnap, forced marriages, even confinement in an asylum. And in modern times, heiresses fell victim to fortune-hunters who squandered their millions. Heiresses tells the stories of these million dollar babies: Mary Davies, who inherited London’s most valuable real estate, and was bartered from the age of twelve; Consuelo Vanderbilt, the original American “Dollar Heiress”, forced into a loveless marriage; Barbara Hutton, the Woolworth heiress who married seven times and died almost penniless; and Patty Hearst, heiress to a newspaper fortune who was arrested for terrorism. However, there are also stories of independence and achievement: Angela Burdett-Coutts, who became one of the greatest philanthropists of Victorian England; Nancy Cunard, who lived off her mother's fortune and became a pioneer of the civil rights movement; and Daisy Fellowes, elegant linchpin of interwar high society and noted fashion editor. Heiresses is about the lives of the rich, who—as F. Scott Fitzgerald said—are ‘different’. But it is also a bigger story about how all women fought their way to equality, and sometimes even found autonomy and fulfillment.
