You may think I'm cruel, to kill a man so- let alone three.
You may think me sociopathic, evil- incapable of love.
But sadly, I am not- and perhaps that was my demise.
I write this book in hopes someone, somewhere, may succeed where I did not- coming upon an enormous fortune, and being blessed with the ability to not have to share such a thing with anybody else.
Having unlimited power, stability, happiness- all the things killing one's husband should bring upon someone.
Nonetheless, if my dear readers cannot use this book to murder one's own husband- one hopes it can bring entertainment on a rainy day, for surely the skedaddles and hijinks will be enough to capture the modern mind.
For example, I've had to deal with Men- a feat in itself- as well as the dealing of an unexpected Other Heir, Stepdaughter, and my past coming back to haunt me...
Intriguing, no?
***Historical Fiction set in England, 1890s, in which a Victorian Woman is set upon murdering her most recent, useless, but very rich, husband, in exchange for a plethora of wealth. Unfortunately, fate is not on her side- there's an annoyingly handsome Lord in her way, and his niece, a young brat in desperate need of a mother.
But nothing can get in the way of her plans, of course.
Especially not her own heart.

Reincarnated as the Duke's Misunderstood Wife
I've been reincarnated into the very web novel I used to mock endlessly with my friends-and even in the comment sections. Who could blame me? It was the epitome of clichés: a forced marriage, endless misunderstandings between husband and wife, suffocating angst, the heroine's dramatic escape, and the inescapable regret of the so-called male lead. Predictable, frustrating, and utterly tiresome. Yet here I am, inhabiting the role of that very heroine in 'Husband Is Regretting.' My first priority? Divorce the walking red flag I've been shackled to. But for some reason, the more I ignore him, the more fixated he becomes. And if that wasn't confusing enough, a side character who was supposed to appear only once suddenly approaches me with a bold question: "Shall I be your secret lover?" What on earth is going on in this story? Owner of the cover X\@irt_5433Terminé
Sincerely Yours
In 1800s England, a well-meaning but selfish young woman will do anything to avoid matrimony to the county's finest suitors and to justly prove she doesn't need a husband to find her way in society. Even under the peril of her uncle losing his property and business to debt. In all but two months, she must prove to her family she's more than capable without a husband and can, in fact, exceed society's expectations of the female sex. But what woman can write what she hardly knows of the world, and its secrets? And most of all, how far is she willing to prove herself toward society and the Lord? At what cost for love? Maxmillian Knightley has returned from university in London, now facing the looming title of marquis. With that title comes responsibility to interact with those he despises most, and with which he must fight for his inheritance. But how far will he go in order to grow favor in the scrutiny of society and his stiff-neck father? He may be everything a woman of the ton looks for in a husband - titled, wealthy, and cheek bones that can draw in any woman - but he is in no mood to humor eligible women by participating in all things reformed. The question is: how far will he go to do everything against his own sensibility and judgment? For inheritance ... or for loyalty and love? The only common enlightenment between two entirely different sexes? A fondness for penmanship and our humorous Lord who writes the very novelty of life itself. And what happens if proving oneself leads to something quite worse? When it comes to love, making the right choices, these two are their own worst enemies.

Sweet Love of Mine
Emily Weatherly was no gently-bred London debutante. In fact, she had thrived on the streets of London, a pickpocket and urchin, until Fate threw her lot in with the Weatherly's, a prestigious family who unselfishly raised her as their own and protect her from a heinous secret that could destroy her life. Despite this, she is never truly accepted as a proper lady, always scorned and ridiculed, and she vows to do her adopted family proud by making a respectable match with a gentleman of some rank and notoriety. Sebastian Weatherly harbors a secret that could thwart his carefully constructed bachelorhood. Indiscriminate rake, scoundrel and downright rogue, he has had to endure Emily Weatherly's presence for as long as he could remember. Now that she intends to make a respectable match, which he knows cannot ever be him as he is not respectable, he can hardly ignore the bitter jealousy residing in his heart as he is forced to watch Emily courted by various beaus.Terminé
Bound To Bea
"No respect for the dead." His words came out in silent whispers, his teeth clenched. A small smile tugged on her lips. "Respect is earned in life, my lord. When a man fails to earn respect in life, it cannot suddenly be bestowed on him simply because he returned to the dust whence he came." "At the very least, Lady Atkins, pretend," he admonished. "Pretend to mourn for your husband! You are a woman in mourning! Grief, sadness, decency is expected of you," he growled, stepping so close to her, his nose almost kissed hers. "Not a low-cut, salacious red dress!" She inched forward, jaw set, until she could feel his warm breath on her skin. "And you are a man whose cousin's widow was only a few minutes ago caught with a man on top of her," she shot back, leaning further in until her lips were nearly brushing his as she searched his gaze. "Anger, rage, fury, is expected of you, my lord... Not jealousy!" * Newly widowed, the sudden death of Beatrice's husband has brought about her freedom from the shackles of a loveless marriage... Or so she thinks. All hope is quickly lost when she discovers her husband's cruelty in disinheriting her and leaving her penniless. But worse than his decision to disinherit her, is his decision to leave her at the mercy of his cousin; Noah, the very handsome Marquess of Camden. TW: This story contains mentions of suicide.

Hunting the Swallow (Hand in Hand Chronicles)
By marrying for love, Owen Tudor has put his own life jeopardy. The Dowager Queen of England would normally be completely out of reach for a humble knight, but ten years of marriage later Owen doesn't regret a thing. But, with the Queen dying, his own life is cheap when her teenage son, the new king of England, discovers his existence. Keeping his family safe is about to be more complicated than he ever imagined, especially when his stepson appears to accept him. Running away is easy, learning to trust the son of the man who murdered his father is far harder. Based on true events. (All the Hand in Hand books are tangentially related to the Violent Delights series, but are all stand alone, you can start reading anywhere with any of them and it'll make sense, if you want to go in chronological order the Violent Delights series is numbered. This one takes place in the mid 1400s) Trigger/Content Warning: a main character suffers from PTSD, and grief at the loss of a spouse. Significant character death. Some traumatic moments to do with family bonding may be unsettling for some readers. Rape is discussed. Homophobia is depicted and discussed. Some blood violence. Brief profanity. Peril to main characters may be unsettling. *Alcohol use throughoutTerminé
