Ruthless Fate (Book 1 of The Ruthless Empire Series)
In an alternate reality, London is steaming with the latest vehicle inventions and tea. Rumour has it, that Greenfield Corporations is creating their newest invention yet to debut? Could it be a car? Could it be another steam ship? Or maybe something awfully unimaginable? Elora, a reserved and aspiring business owner, focuses on one thing only: Her workshop. She is troubled to find that business has lessened and that more and more of her clients seem to be...sick. The unknown infection has left her with many questions, resulting in her investigating the root of it. However the more she digs, the more she unravels that something could potentially hold the state of London in jeopardy. Mikaelis, a flamboyant and ludicrous son of a Marquis, has his attention on many things. If not disobeying his father, then it's batting his charming smile onto swooning ladies. But that changes the moment he meets his sister's best friend, Elora. To him, she is frustratingly sarcastic and makes crude remarks about his character. No matter how much he loathes her, he also cannot seem to get her out of his mind. So as to gain some sort of repulsion against her, he helps her investigate the ongoing infection in London's alleys. To his surprise, he finds something of her that drags him deeper into his affectionate misery. As the two battle unhinged infected people, grumpy nobles and the whispers of the high society, they struggle to find a way out of the tunnel of neverending chaos. Maybe this could lead to the ruination of London... Ready yourselves for the hot tea that is about to be spilt.
