Description

On the brink of losing her position as a maid for the Pickering family and with no prospects to go on, the offer of a place at Rooksgrave Manor—a house of ill and unusual repute—sounds like a perfect fit for a young woman with Esther’s inclinations. Even better, the invitation comes by the hand of the handsome Dr. Underwood, a delicate gentleman with a ferocious alter ego who knows exactly what he wants from Esther.Arriving at the Manor, Esther’s never felt so sure of being in the right place in her entire life. But waiting to meet the men who will claim her is agonizing, especially with the stone butler Booker so conveniently at hand. Will she be able to follow Madame Mortimer’s house rules? Will she please Auguste, the first of her lovers and a vampire just like in the stories? Most concerning of all, the manor might not be as safe from the outside world’s curiosity as it needs to be to protect its rare and magical patrons.Esther - Book 1 is the first of the fast burn Rooksgrave Manor series, and a novella meant to thrill and delight in the spirit of penny dreadfuls and gothic romance!
