Thornvale’s Cursed Bride
Ella was framed by Lena, the girl she’d saved. She was accused of having an affair with Thornvale Earl Cullen’s father—her fiancé’s dad. Blinded by lies, Cullen sent her to the troll den in the Black Marsh. After being humiliated, she lost a leg. Years later, Lena flaunted this at a ladies’ tea party, sparking a town scandal. When Cullen learned the truth, he begged for forgiveness and a second chance—only to be rejected. Eventually, Lena sacrificed an innocent girl to cover her crimes and paid a terrible price; her own child was killed in revenge. Cullen lost his title as Earl of Thornvale and fell into ruin. But Ella found a healer, gave birth to a lovely daughter, and finally lived a happy life.
