The Engagement
Victoria could not remember a day that she had not already been promised to a man who lived thousands of miles away. She had tried to avoid this day her whole life. She had begged, pleaded and finally threatened to go into a convent rather than marry a man she did not know and did not want to know. Even with the whole estate around her with life, she did not share the same sentiment. As the days got closer to her wedding day, she went to extreme lengths to avoid this preplanned life that had been mapped out by her parents. Even to the point of escaping at any cost, only to be caught in the end.

The Duke and the Duchess Reviews
-
I am sampling several of the Kindle Short Reads Top 100 Free works. This was one.
A short story that did not leave the reader hanging (i.e. not just a preview of longer work) but seemed to make jumps in the plot without basis. An enjoyable style and nice characters, though. Work a look. -
Eh
The first story was not well written or researched. I was half through the second story and it's fantasy role-playing. When I got the book I wasn't looking for mediocre, but it found me anyway. -
Good
I enjoyed reading this book, hopefully I can find time t o read more by this author. Will be looking for more
