Broken Deception

A time that only accommodates pretty and polite young women, ones that bloom like perfectly pruned roses.
She isn't pretty by society's standards. But she is kindhearted, generous, and has a dowery containing more money than most people would see in a lifetime.

Veronica may be a wallflower by day, but she is a vigilante by night. Saving anyone she can, whether it be from thugs lurking in darkened alleys or from gleaming and lavish high society. After all, shadows hide in every corner.

Owen is desperately in love with Ada, so in love that he's ready to propose. But when his family comes into a tough financial situation, Ada's mother forbids them from courting. Owen promises that he will fix the problem to save his family, and still marry Ada.

Ada and her mother come up with a plan for Owen. All he needs to do is marry Veronica, collect her dowery, and then make it look as though she's had an affair. Then Owen could divorce her and keep her large dowery.

Can Owen do it, crush Veronica's heart and take her money? How much does he love Ada? And why is he starting to fall for Veronica?
