Miss Alya Eerenbeck grew up in a household that nearly destroyed her. She is sold to a monstrous usurer to stave off her father's debt. She is not afraid. The pain and misery of her childhood might be the thing that prepares her to not only survive in this dangerous man's house--but thrive in his world.

Join Alya in a low-fantasy world of regency-esque gentility. This podcast is for fans of Jane Austen, Georgette Heyer, and also fantasy, low-fantasy, dark romances, and anti-heroes. The focus is on women finding their latent strength within. This is a fiction podcast and free audiobook by Miranda Mayer.

    A scintillating evening at a concert is almost tainted by the unexpected presence of Alya's half-sister, Auria. But it only takes a casually spoken term of endearment from Bennik, and Auria's attempts to get under her sister's skin are curtailed. Bennik also gives Auria an ominous warning.
