The Cambridge Companion To The American Modernist

Married to the Duke

Eleanor Thorne, a wealthy heiress, is despised by everyone, even her own family. Despite the constant negativity, she thrives through sheer determination and ambition. However, her life takes an unexpected turn when a drunk driver crashes into her car, sending her soul hurtling into the pages of a Victorian romance novel she once read. Eleanor awakens in the body of Evelyn, the villainess wife of the Duke of Blackwood. In the novel, Evelyn is destined to be killed for her relentless harassment of the heroine, Amelia. Armed with this knowledge, Eleanor vows to rewrite her fate. Adapting to the strictures of Victorian society proves challenging, but Eleanor's modern sensibilities clash with the established norms. As she navigates the intricate social circles, she encounters the stoic Duke, whose initial coldness gradually melts away, revealing a potential for connection. However, escaping her predetermined villainous role isn't as simple as she anticipated. The deeper she delves into the story, the more she uncovers hidden truths. Amelia might not be the innocent victim she appears to be, and the reasons behind Eleanor's ostracization in both worlds begin to intertwine. Eleanor must confront her own past mistakes and prejudices while navigating the complex web of societal expectations and blossoming love. Can she break free from the shackles of her predetermined fate and find redemption, not just in the eyes of others, but within herself?
