Betrothed to My Sister's Ex

Lady Leticia’s life has been anything but charmed. Consistently overshadowed by her beautiful and accomplished elder sister, she's been relegated to the sidelines, her self-esteem battered by years of neglect and unkind comparisons. But when her sister abruptly breaks off her engagement to a handsome and powerful duke, Leticia finds herself thrust into an unexpected and rather scandalous position: she is to become his replacement bride. Now, this plain and often-overlooked noblewoman must navigate the treacherous waters of high society, a new household, and the daunting prospect of marriage to a man who was once destined for her perfect sister. Can Leticia, with her fragile confidence and unassuming nature, find happiness and perhaps even love in a union born of circumstance, or is she simply a stand-in destined for further heartbreak? This charming josei tale explores themes of self-worth and unexpected romance in a fantastical setting.
