"Heiress" is about the rise of a corrupt businesswoman named Delphine Blake who sacrifices her individuality and her integrity in her pursuit of absolute power. Shunned by her wealthy family because of her failure to either pursue formal education or marry, Delphine, (formerly known as Rose Watling), struggles with her mental health and substance abuse. She tries and fails to stake a place for herself in the San Francisco Bay Area, and she learns quickly enough that the society she encounters aims to crush differences and mold anomalies into conformity. 

Rather than accept herself and be true to her capricious, unique nature, Rose extinguishes this part of herself, and she kills all that was decent and humane about her in order to become the commercially flourishing, callous persona of Delphine Blake. With the help of a hefty inheritance, Rose changes her name to Delphine and buys the company she works for, a prestigious PR company where appearances are valued at all costs.All Rights Reserved

A Heart Untamed by kaycat_writes

Lady Lyra Wynthorne has spent her life in the shadow of her father's power, protected by his influence and sheltered by her status. As the only daughter of a High Lord, she's always had everything she could ever want-except her freedom. When she learns that her father has arranged a marriage for her, Lyra decides to take her fate into her own hands. Running away from the life she's always known, she ventures out into a world far harsher than she imagined, determined to prove she's more than the spoiled, reckless girl everyone thinks she is. Sir Lucian Dorne, her father's most trusted knight, has watched over Lyra since they were children. He knows her better than anyone-or so he thinks. As her childhood friend and protector, he's seen her wild, impulsive nature, and he believes she has much to learn about the realities of life. Never did Lucian expect Lyra to disappear, nor could he have predicted the sorrow and emptiness that would fill the void she left behind. Months later, when Lucian finally tracks Lyra down, he's shocked to find that the damsel he once knew is no longer in distress. Lyra has changed. Hardened. She has found a new strength and independence in the face of hardship, and she no longer needs saving. As Lucian sees her with new eyes, he begins to wonder: how can he protect someone who doesn't need protecting? And when he discovers the true reason she fled, Lucian is forced to confront his deepest fear. What does a knight do when the damsel he's sworn to protect is ready to fight her own battles? And more importantly, what happens when that damsel is the woman he's been in love with all along? In this story of love, loyalty, and self-discovery, Lyra and Lucian must face the truth of who they are-and who they are to each other.

Darling, Come Water the Flowers Vol. 1 by Kujiis

"Having sex won't make me less mad at you," I reprimanded, knowing it didn't matter what I said because I wanted nothing more than for him to make love to me. I wanted to feel his hands in my hair, against my arms and legs, down my hips, the inside of my thighs, gently around my throat, toying with my lips. I needed him to understand and see every inch of my body and then to still crave it. I needed this to go right for once, just to prove to myself the first time wasn't how it's always going to be. "True," He murmured against my ear, sucking a tender spot on my neck, lapping at it as my arms circled his head, pulling at the brunette strands of hair. "But it'll make you appreciate me more." __________________________________ 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐄𝐝𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 was raised from the ground up knowing nothing but comparison and perfection.

The Heiress by Ezrielsnow

Once, she endured. Now, she reigns. For three years, Claire Laurent was the silent, obedient wife-the woman they dismissed, humiliated, and discarded. But patience has its limits.

In business, she's unmatched. In war, she's unbreakable. With her three powerful brothers, at her side, she builds an empire stronger than any of her enemies imagined.

Now, the woman he abandoned commands the room, demands respect, and leaves destruction in her wake. As she moves to expose corruption, reclaim her legacy, and bring her enemies to their knees-Drake watches, fascinated and regretful. But Claire isn't here for love. She's here to win.
