Twins of Tenby Hall by TheScribesApprentice

"The Riley twins were born in the spring of 1797 during a ferocious storm that battered the Salisbury Plain for three days together. Isabel entered the world with a flash of lightning, her shrieking drowned out by a grand clap of thunder. Thirteen minutes later the storm abated, clouds parted, and Miranda was handed to her father, blinking in rays of sun that poured through the window." Isabel loves the comfort of home and the company of her family and few close friends. She doesn't care for the drama of the season or dream of gothic adventures as her sister does. She is wild and carefree in her own right, mischievous if need be, and the fun she has with her sister and closest friend is enough to satisfy her fancies. If only life took pleasure in forcing adventure on those who wished for it, instead of those who did not. Miranda is a playful romantic, she looks forward to her first season with a desperation which rivals that of a starving man on his way to a feast. She can't wait to dress in beautiful gowns and dance the nights away with the height of the Ton. More than anything, she dreams of finding her prince charming and falling in love; but love is a game, and some play it far too well. What readers are saying: "What a wonderful read!! Your writing style is so delightful and immersed me in the time period :) I also enjoyed the romance and the characters you developed! Thank you for sharing your work :))" - @Purplejeans "Absolutely beautiful story. Great content, descriptive, enthralling, and such romance. Very well done to you. Hope to read many more of your works👌🏼🙌🏼" - @JeanetteSim4 "This has to become a movie!! I need to watch this!!!" - Anonymous

Not everyone gets their prince charming, now do they? Life is not a fairytale. Let's get real now, shall we? Amelia Waston, she is 17 years old and is like every other teenage girl that loves reading sappy love stories, likes watching chick-flicks and has her own fantasies of her 'happy ending'. Ethan Turner, he is 18 years old and is the practical definition of a 'high school bad boy', he is a player, the captain of the football team, he doesn't give a shit about rules, he has the brains (well kind of) and looks and girls drool over his 6'4 tall frame Both of their lives are not perfect, both have their own issues and most of all both are polar opposites. What happens after they bump into each other? Well, a kick and a few words here and there. But what happens when Amelia has to live with Ethan? Do they both put their insecurities and issues aside and decide on being friends? Or do they ignore each other? Join a journey of hatred, love, betrayal and a bunch of other feelings. ~~~ "Before I met Ethan I thought love was a happily ever after. But it's not. I learnt so many more things with him, I learnt the true meaning of love, a meaning that can't be described in words. You're scared of loving or choosing the wrong person. You may not admit it, but you're scared of not getting your happily ever after, so you're pushing it away. But it isn't a happy ending. It's a not-so happy ending.

It has been ten years since Amelia was adopted by Lord and Lady Baldwin, and publicly recognized as a member of the Nobility. Now it is time for her to step out into high society and be recognized as something completely different- a debutante. A young woman now eligible for marriage. Amelia has never quite fit into the world of high-society. Having been born into poverty and adopted as a child, it has always seemed to her that she is the black sheep of the bunch. 'Ladylike' has never been a word that she would use to describe herself. She has never viewed herself as the marriageable-type, and has never found herself to care much for the idea of courtships. And yet, in the tangles of 19th Century London, a young lady has no choice. After all, Amelia's elder sister- the perfect daughter, with golden curls and a flawless face- has already secured an Earl to court. The two of them do not care much for each other, but love is not what matters. It is all about status and tradition. But in a world where it is unheard of for a woman to marry for love, Amelia soon discovers that her own happily ever after may not be as impossible as she though. But why is it the Earl's eyes that keep drawing Amelia in? And what if the rules surrounding the strict and formal courtships are rules that Amelia simply does not want to follow? After all, she has never been much of a Lady. ***Stand-alone sequel to Pauper Princess- though suggested, you do not have to read the first book to understand this one***
