The Heiress Who Broke The Cage

My father called the LeBlanc artistic gift a blessing, a legacy.

But for me, with its storm-like intensity that consumed my mother, it felt like a curse.

To stabilize my talent, he arranged my marriage to one of three powerful men.

I thought I was choosing a partner, until I overheard my presumed fiancé, Cade, with Daisy Miller.

He declared I was just "a means to an end," a "broken songbird" whose artistic "secrets" he'd plunder.

Daisy, his true partner, would be the real star.

The betrayal stung, but far worse was the shock when I found my mother' s unique Amati violin was gone.
