Book Description
The Victorian era was full of majestic beauty and scandalous secrets—a time when corsets were the least of a woman’s restrictions, and men could kill or be killed in the name of honor… Lady Margaret Cassidy left a life of nobility behind in Ireland, forsaking her grieving homeland to aid war-ravaged men in England. Still, she never expected a cruel turn of fate to lock her into an unwanted betrothal with one of her English patients—much less one as broken and dangerous as Viscount Powers. Wrecked by his tragic past, Powers’ opiate-addled sanity hangs precariously in the balance, leaving him poised to destroy anyone who dares to utter the names of the wife and child he still so deeply mourns. So when he is forced to marry Margaret in exchange for freedom, he is shocked by the desire to earn her trust, her body, and—most alarming of all—her heart…

But instead of smelling of promises, he stunk of betrayal. And he destroyed me-us-the day he married my sister instead of me. So I did the only thing a girl like me in my position could do. I got my revenge. I married his brother, Kael. Now we're one big happy f**king family.

Dancing with the Howler God

ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 169
Book Description
The book is about a legendary tragicomic folktale reflecting on the contemporary socioeconomic and belief systems of the Bru people (Riangs) of the erstwhile Kingdom of Tripura. It is a medley of fact and fiction, vulgarity and refinement, pleasure and pain of the ethnic Bru people. It is based on a faded folktale. Folktales are flawed, but folktales still. The bare bones of the past. The author has fleshed and sprinkled the ethnic spices to make the tale juicier, saucier and more palatable. It also reflects on love, romance, music, songs, dance, drinks, smokes, mischief, adultery, conflict and fights of the ethnic primitive tribe – the only Primitive Tribal Group (PTG) of Tripura, India.
