❝Sometimes, even the most proper of ladies wish to defy.❞ . . . Lady Eleanor Mary Cantwell, daughter of the Marquess of Salford, is a proper young lady. With her golden complexion, raven-black hair, and manners befitting a princess, Lady Eleanor has always been deemed a belle. There is just one problem. Lady Eleanor Cantwell is Indian. Having been adopted from India when Lady Salford found herself unable to bear a child, Lady Eleanor is shunned by society, including her mother, on account of her true heritage. The ladies turn their noses up at her and the gentlemen only wish for her virtue which she clings to dearly. They certainly have no wish to wed an Indian girl, no matter how pretty she is! Which is why the entire ton is incredulous when a young man - a duke, no less! - offers his hand in marriage to the young daughter of the Marquess of Salford. Lady Eleanor finds it quite hard to believe that any gentleman would wish to marry her and instead of feeling grateful, all she feels is remorse and anger. A husband would only bring with him a mountain of restrictions that were detrimental to her plans of travelling the world - the land of her ancestors, in particular. So, when her parents sell her off to the duke, she realises that she no longer cares for society, her beloved father, or her reputation. And when the duke makes her an enticing offer, she realises she would have to abandon all sense of propriety, manners, and rules to do what he asks of her. She would have to defy. ©Richa Rachael Kurian, 2021 ********** 1st Place Winner in GENERAL FICTION/HISTORICAL FICTION of the HIDDEN GEMS AWARDS * Featured in the WAR & MILITARY reading list by @HistoricalFiction * Featured in the HISTORICAL DIVERSELIT reading list by @HistoricalFiction * Featured in the MULTICULTURAL AROUND THE WORLD reading list by @Multicultural-Community * Featured in the DIVERSE CHICKLIT reading list by @WattpadChickLitIN - Sage (manxman) Complete

Legend says that he was a Prince of an ancient and powerful kingdom. He and the rest of the statues were in war, when the Villain they were fighting cursed them in an attempt to stop them. But in doing so, he made himself lose his physical form, and now he lives in the dark, waiting until the statues come back to life. The only way to free the Prince and the rest of the statues is if his soulmate holds his hand.

Welcome to Azur Lane High, a school where ship girls of all nations engage together in fierce training to do battle one day out on the open seas. Honing their skills and perfecting abilities. But right now the bigger problems they gotta face is school life and the problems that come with it. Such as, getting girlfriends, the social order of how popular you are, where you fit in, and most importantly making friends (if you can). In addition to actually doing school work, like homework, passing tests, those good old school projects, etc. First we're gonna follow 4 girls. Javelin, Laffey, Ayanami, and Z23 on their adventure together. (Of course there will be other ships but they won't be the stars sadly. But they will make appearances! When they relate to our 4 main characters). Just know that the school Azur Lane High has just been newly created and so, there will be nationalism coming into play as well as segregation bias and feelings. Ayyy it's just like real life where everyone technically is segregated and hang in the same groups that relate to them huh? Also, even though it's called Azur Lane High we got pre-k to High School students. Of course I want everyone included. Your welcome ;) - The Forest Ongoing
