Flirted Wrong, Married Right
Fiancé cheats, Evelyn Clayton is not willing to be outdone, so she spends the night in the bed of her fiancé's elder brother, which subsequently entangles her with the charming playboy, James Grant.
In a sham marriage, everyone is waiting to see her make a fool of herself, waiting to see how many times she'll be cuckolded after marriage.
However, after the wedding, the once womanizing James Grant astoundingly puts on an apron, cooks meals, and affectionately calls out to her again and again: "Evelyn, I finally married you..."
Evelyn Clayton thought she was isolated and helpless in the Grant Family, cautious in every step, unaware that someone had long been silently supporting her, driving her to distraction.

From 1776 to 1852, the United States of America witnessed various reform movements which effectively contributed to the growing opposition to slavery. In his “Declaration of Sentiments of the American Anti-Slavery Society,” American journalist William Lloyd Garrison expresses how the slavery represents the “deadliest curse” and “foulest stain” of the nation (Doc E). While the Anti-Slavery Society ideally desired a separation of populations and to send back slaves to Africa, their concern over natural rights and the Second Great Awakening inspired them to “live to witness the triumph of Justice, Liberty and Humanity, or perish untimely as martyrs in this great, benelovent, and holy cause.” Garrison’s declaration is significant in demonstrating how growing opposition to slavery was not always grounded in antislavery or abolitionist sentiment; it was spurred by economic concerns, anxieties over blacks as equals, and fear of slave revolts. In her book “Appeal to the Christian Women of the South,” Angelina Grinke encourages activism by Christian women against slavery (Doc F). What makes her background as an author so unique is that she was once part of a slave-holding plantation family as well, and after witnessing the brutality of slavery Grinke argues that only by abolishing this horrid system will there be hopes for women’s suffrage. Women were often leaders in the antislavery movement and ultimately pinned their hopes for suffrage on the abolition of slavery. Additionally, Grimké argues that slavery corrupts many Christians who behave in a non-Christian manner when they sell souls for money. Through the reforms for women’s suffrage, concern over economy and population, and religion, anti-slavery sentiments eventually rose to unprecedented heights between 1776 and 1852.
