Tess

"She was born into a world where they called it seduction, not rape. What she did would shatter that world forever."

A strong-willed peasant girl is sent by her father to the estate of some local aristocrats to capitalize on a rumour that their families are from the same line. This fateful visit commences an epic narrative of sex, class, betrayal, and revenge.
