Penelope Carnegie had an unfortunate accident as a young woman which left her unable to walk or feel her legs. Much to her guardians' dismay, she will no longer make a desirable wife. Her Uncle Andrew has heard some of his cohorts are sending their progeny to Europe, along with a substantial dowery, to wed titled land owners. Lord Edward Avondale was caught in a compromising position and his parents arranged to wed him to an American heiress. He must agree or face incarceration. Penelope is determined to make the best of her circumstances and prove that she can not just overcome her disability, but also thrive in a new country, with a new man, while war is imminent. In the first installment of her Robber Baron Bride series, Jorja Rae masterfully brings taboo topics such as physical disability, homosexuality, infertility, and PTSD into a historical context rarely seen in period literature. Tropes used include arranged marriage, found family, military protector, and atypical polyamory.
