Living in Victorian London is not easy. Especially when you are black, a woman and working as a maid for the dreadful Cartwrights. Winnith Harlow qualifies for all of the above, so her life is quite frankly put - difficult.
Freedom is all she wants, but it is a right reserved only for men - and the rich. She is determined to change that, but before she can, she has to solve a few dilemmas. Ones that if left unsolved, could possibly turn her life into a mess that she - a maid - can't even clean up.

Dominant, bold, strict, grumpy sunshine, age gap, strong female, funny. From childhood, Zaroon had always been someone to admire-brilliant, composed, and protective, yet distant. To Mahnoor, he was more than just a neighbour's son; he was her first love. She grew up watching him tutor his younger sister, often joining their study sessions just to be around him. Though he treated her like a little sister, her heart longed for more. But time creates distance. Zaroon completes his MBBS in their home country and moves to London for further studies. Determined to follow in his footsteps, the female lead also pursues medicine, ending up in the same city years later. By then, she has let go of her childhood crush, focusing on her ambitions and newfound independence. When fate brings them together again, circumstances force them into each other's orbits. But this time, it's Zaroon who finds himself drawn to her-not as a little girl who used to admire him, but as a woman who now stands on her own. A series of events make him see her in a new light, stirring emotions he never expected. With forced proximity, unresolved past emotions, and growing tensions, their relationship shifts from teacher-student to something far more complicated. But will she let him in after all these years, or has he already lost his chance?

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.

Refuge In The Shadows
Raised as Hunters in a hidden counterinsurgency society in the late nineteenth century, nineteen year old Welsh twins Carys and Cadeyrn Llewelyn have led brutal, unforgiving lives filled with heartbreak and pain. As the only female Hunter, Carys has proven her place among the males, but not without a terrible price. And while Carys is as self-sacrificing as ever, it's up to Cadeyrn to make sure he's there to pick up the pieces. When a mysterious Hunter from London beckons the twins and their friends to the city to eliminate a target, self discoveries are made, relationships are tested, and wounds are reopened. _____ "Cadeyrn, everything we have been through, everything we have sacrificed has come down to this moment. Steamboats and trains make travel exponentially faster. Industry has become the crown jewel of the country. Stringent moral codes are disintegrating. Everything that we used to take for granted has been distorted. Amidst all of this revolution, I see women restlessly gazing out their windows. They want a share of this exciting, new world. I have been privileged to have access to it and I do not want to be the only one...but I do not know if I am the right person to bring about this change," Carys whispered dejectedly. Cadeyrn sat on Carys's bed and enveloped her in a brotherly embrace. "Do not say such things about yourself. You are as strong and determined as Mam was." Carys gave Cadeyrn a watery smile and he returned to his own bed. Carys turned her body around so that she was facing the window. The curtains were pulled aside so she could see the stars littering the night sky. The gentle slopes of the hills stretched as far as the eye could see and the darkened shadow of the village was a speck off in the distance. At this breathtaking sight, Carys finally let the tears fall. Each teardrop held her fears, her anger, and her sadness. Why would one need to find refuge in the shadows if there is nothing to hide? Only in a perfect world.Lengkap
