The Divorced Duchess

"Love is like a rose, beautiful and alluring, but you can end up pricked by its thorns."

Eleanor Evans-secretly known as Eleanor Hastings-decided to marry her one-sided crush, Robert Davis, three years ago. He warned her that their marriage served only one purpose: she had to bare him an heir. Young and in love, Eleanor agreed to his terms and left her old life behind for him.

For three years, she suffered through countless moments of verbal abuse from her mother-in-law and the humiliation of always being second best to her husband's best friend. However, she pushed through because she loved Robert and hoped he would one day love her back. That day never came.

Instead, Eleanor was left broken-hearted after finding her husband lying in bed beside the same woman he had told her not to worry about.

Devasted and heartbroken, Eleanor turned to an old friend and decided it was time to leave her loveless marriage. Not only would she divorce Robert, but she would make sure he suffered every ounce of pain and humiliation that she did.
