Ever since people could remember only men were allowed to enter the House of Beardsley, but for the first time four young girls with nothing in common have been hired to work in the mansion as live-in housekeepers. Shuyan, a Chinese orphan living in Victorian England, has always had a hard time finding a job, so she applies without much thought to the infamous House of Beardsley. Her co-workers, Bethany, Clo, and Rhiannon, on the other hand, seem to have no desire to work. Although they have been warned to keep their contact with the seven men of Beardsley as minimal as possible, Shuyan comes close to overstepping the boundaries when she makes contact with the crippled and gentle master Eugene. When she finds out the girls are hired for a much more sinister reason from the cold and mysterious Tobias, will she choose to stay in the House of Beardsley? More importantly, with each secret she unearths and relation she makes will she be able to leave...? #1 in Victorian-era (1/31/20) #1 in Asiansinlit (2/13/20) #1 in nobility (2/25/20) #1 in Edwardian (3/31/20) #1 in earl (4/22/20) #1 in Asian (8/9/20) #1 in gothicromance (1/4/21) #2 in debutante (4/18/20) #2 in regencyromance (10/3/20) #3 in Victorian (2/20/20) #1 in gothic (9/7/24)

Morgana Stocking was loving and living life to the full. Her parents were rich business people and she had her own make-up products. She didn't see life as it truly was, only what money could buy. That was until she was brutally kidnapped by Hydra and turned into their newest weapon. Months of solidarity confinement turned the girl into a monster, broke the light and turned it into darkness, burned the spirit and turned it into ashes. Now she serves as the Winter Soldier's partner. With wings as black as coal and a face as hard as stone, will this brainwashed, broken girl ever find out what truly happened to her as she starts to question? Or will the Avengers find a way to get the girl before her life is totally ruined beyond repair? #43 in Avengers - 09/05/2018 #870 in Teen fiction - 09/05/2018 All rights go to Marvel. I have tried to make this as realistic as possible, so I have included all the actions and speech from the movies that I think ties in with this story. If you have watched the movies, you'll understand what parts are mine and what parts are the Marvel writers. If you haven't watched the movies, I suggest you do. The dialogue and actions are currently from 'Captain America : Winter Soldier' and 'Avengers : Age of Ultron'.
