Debutantes Stories

At seventeen, Chloe is finally invited into the formal gatherings that mark a young shifter's place in society. As a lower-rank wolf, she's learned it's safer to be overlooked. So when a sharp-eyed stranger starts noticing her, she tells herself it means nothing. Only a glance. Only a dance. Until it isn't. Because in a world where rank is everything, the most dangerous question isn't about tradition - it's whether she deserves more than the place she was given.

Persephone Featherington has mastered the art of being invisible. In a family defined by vibrant red hair and a desperate thirst for social standing, Persephone is the odd one out-a brunette who prefers the quiet safety of her bedroom to the suffocating air of the ballroom. But as the 1813 season begins, the shadows are no longer an option. Forced into the marriage mart in gowns that clash with her complexion and a spirit that clashes with her mother's ambitions, Persephone is headed for disaster. That is, until Lady Bridgerton intervenes. Tasked with being her guide through the Ton, Benedict Bridgerton is the last person Persephone wants to be near. He is everything she is not: bold, artistic, and effortlessly seen. Yet, as Benedict attempts to teach her how to navigate the Ton, they both find that some connections are not taught-they are recognized. BENEDICT BRIDGERTON X OC FEMALE

Pantomime by Laura Lam took me to an exotic and detailed world, peopled by characters that I'd love to be friends with . . . and some I'd never want to cross paths with (Robin Hobb) Pantomime is a fantastical, richly drawn, poignant take on a classic coming-of-age story . . . a vibrant tale told with surety and grace (Leigh Bardugo) Set in a vividly imagined world with wonderful steampunk touches, Pantomime is a fable-like story as beautifully unique as its main character (Malinda Lo) A lyrical, stunningly written debut novel, which set my heart racing with every lift of the trapeze. In Micah we have one of the most original - and likeable - protagonists I've read in a long time. An author to watch, without a doubt (Amy Alward)

She was just waiting for her 19th birthday to make its way through so she could come out for her own season. Lord Nathaniel knew the score with the ladies. A kiss in the dark, a necklace to the lover, and a house for the mistress would suffice. He needed no other entanglements and the cluster of emotions that came with involving himself with a romantic.

But all had changed when a red letter, written in gold calligraphy then sealed with the royal crest, arrived on the doorstep of the Ameryst mansion.

✨ About the Book ✨ Tethered by the Lure of You by K. C. L. A. I. R. In a season lit by candlelight and whispered intentions, two love stories stir-one silenced by time, the other just beginning to bloom. Célise Girard arrives in Paris as a mystery: the daughter of a reclusive merchant and his foreign bride, raised far from the rituals of courtship. She is beautiful but untouched, elegant but untrained. To society, she is novelty. To herself, she is simply surviving the spectacle of being watched. And then there's Sébastien Lemoine. He is the season's most charming rake-well-born, well-spoken, and carefully uninterested. But charm is only his armor. Years ago, he gave his heart to someone who made sincerity feel safe. She left. Since then, Sébastien has trusted nothing but performance. Love, he's learned, is a trick. Desire? Temporary. Sincerity? Dangerous. So when Célise looks at him with quiet honesty, he is both drawn and undone. She reminds him of a feeling he vowed never to need again. But Célise is not the only secret stirring in the room. Beneath her debut lies a love story never spoken-between her father and her aunt, once torn apart by duty and silence. What they denied themselves now echoes in the lives of the young. Set against a world of rain-soaked promenades, folded letters, and long-held glances, Tethered by the Lure of You is a story of longing inherited, desire restrained, and the ache of almost-touching something real.

A wild young servant is forced to become a lady-in-waiting as her mistress, Lady Meredith Trent, fills her family's space of the new debutante and has no one but her two best friends, Lady Elizabeth, and Lady Lydia, to accompany her to the palace.

The Crowned Prince Claymond has always been the apple of his parents' eye, always staying in line while seeming to become his own man as well, able to entertain everyone including his slightly younger twin set of brother and sister, Prince Theo and Princess Cat as well as the youngest of the royals, Princess Arwen. The educated, honorable and gorgeous prince could do no wrong in the eyes of everyone in the far wide kingdom. Clay is quite bored of the tenacious flirting that was always thrown his way, this would be the Prince's last season then he would agree to let marriage become the last on his mind. Clay just wants to find a real and loving relationship just as his parents found in each other, someone who is after his heart and intellect--not his crown and throne. What will happen to these two blessed but unlucky people? What will happen once the crowned Prince meets a beautiful raven-haired woman with olive skin that entices him, only to find that in her different colored eyes, he was not the apple of them? What happens to said servant once the crowned Prince tries to work himself into the woman's life, rising only more hatred in her for him, turning his hatred into love for the woman with black hair. Thank you to the woman with black hair, the lady in waiting, the servant of noble blood, Raegan Trinity. Warning: I just picked this book back up. I was like 14 when I started to write this.
