Historical
"It's that feeling of helplessness that turns good people.... Cruel." Meet Katherine, "Kat", McKenna, a twenty-seven year old fresh out of Law School and ready to change the world. She gets an interview at one of the most prestigious law firms in Eastwood, Alabama, which is extremely rare for someone like her, as it's 1949 and a lot of people don't like the idea of women in the office. She battles others for a chance to prove that women can do everything that men can. But that isn't all that's in store for her. After a series of events that lead to her finding a note from a relative she presumed dead, Kat goes on a hunt to discover the truth about what really happened. She discovers that sometimes, the truth hurts. (Note all characters are made up and the events are loosely based on actual events. Peggy Carter and others were the inspiration for Kat)

Katherine never pictured her life would be this way, being 'sold off' to some uncaring, misogynistic pig who's nothing more than a leech to society. The mid-thirties was a hard time for everyone, but her family seemed to always manage well, no matter what came about, until they fell on some really hard times and had to do what they had to do, in order to survive. They put their lasting trust in a man who made them more desolate than ever and eventually, they had to make the ultimate sacrifice of giving him their oldest daughter (Katherine) as payment. But what happens when one day, a mysterious man comes into Katherine's life and promises her changes beyond her wildest dreams; any and everything she could ever ask for in life. But there's only one problem, he's white.. From self-experience and stories that have been told to Katherine, she knows not to trust white people. The temptation to engaged is risky, but she can't resist this mysterious man with the captivating eyes and the obvious dark secret behind his smile. Will Katherine fall into temptation and give in to him, or will she listen to her instincts and stay away from the dangerously, mysterious man.
