The Colonel's Daughter's Revenge

My stepmother, Eleanor, was about to ruin my life again, just like before.

A cream-colored envelope, sealed with the Vanderbilt crest, landed on our mahogany table like a death sentence.

This was it: the nightmare I' d already lived once, revisited.

Eleanor' s eyes gleamed as she declared the Vanderbilts wanted an 'alliance' – a marriage for one of us Miller girls.

I knew exactly what that meant: I was to be sold off to a powerful dynasty, just like in my previous life.

My father, Colonel Miller, was a hero overseas, out of reach, leaving no one to stop Eleanor.
