When Susan & Arabella's mother marries Lord Cinders, they find their new, perfect stepsister Ethel has some horrible flaws. The worst, she refuses to consider them family and forces them to do all the house work in her father's absence at sea. Assuring the girl's mother cannot say a word to her husband by devious tactics. But what happens when the tables turn, will the persecuted become the persecutors and live up to their names as the evil step family?
This is a twist on the classic Cinderella story, written in a style not so far off The Brother's Grim.

TWISTED VOWS
A Dark Arranged Marriage Trilogy Silvya Ashbourne was born to be adored. A perfect doll with porcelain skin, green eyes sharp as glass, and a crown of blonde hair. Cold, cruel, untouchable-she ruled the halls of their private school with a smile like a blade. People worshiped her beauty, ignored her venom, and envied the throne she built on fear. Axel Hawthorne was born to be obeyed. The Hawthorne heir, ruthless even as a boy, with grey eyes like storm clouds and a voice that silenced rooms. A god to some, a devil to most. He fought, destroyed, and commanded, his name carrying the weight of England's richest, most feared family. Once, they were children raised on privilege and poison. Once, she mocked him when his family fell. Once, he swore he'd never forgive. Now, at twenty-two, they are bound by an arranged marriage meant to merge two empires. But Axel doesn't want peace-he wants revenge. And Silvya, sharp-tongued and unapologetic, refuses to bow. What begins as a war of hate spirals into something darker: a union of obsession, a love as twisted as the lies that ruined them, and a crown built on blood. Because the greatest betrayals don't come from enemies. They come from the ones who should have been family. He is the devil who burns empires. She is the doll who breaks chains. Together, they will either destroy each other... or rule the world. -- THIS IS BOOK1 OF THE HEIRS TRILOGY. THIS NOT A STANDALONE. -- "She ruined me once. Now I'll ruin her forever." --Terminé

Her life is down in the dangerous Sparkstone mines, slaving away for a few coins that her stepmother and stepsister promptly steal. With life a living hell, she has barely enough energy to care for the injured animals she tends in secret, much less a party for the royal family that cares so little for her and the people like her. It isn't until a mysterious man appears out of the shadows, claiming to be one of the long-lost faeries and offering her a chance at freedom, that she begins to see hope. In exchange for enough money to free herself from her family, the faerie asks only for one thing in return-- that Cole attends the ball in order to get close enough to the prince to assassinate him and bring an end to the corrupted royal line. With her mission clear, Cole enters the world of the palace to learn about the prince and find a way into his ball. But dark secrets, violent plots, a strange sense that perhaps the prince isn't as bad as the faerie makes him seem, and a life-changing discovery about her past, all conspire to make Cole's shot at freedom messy and difficult. She must find the strength to get close to the prince, or else the mysterious faerie will send her back to the mines and her dreadful family. Once the clock strikes midnight... she must fulfill her end of the bargain. Once the clock strikes midnight... her hands must be red with the prince's blood.Terminé
