They Wanted a Puppet. They Got a Queen.

Summary

When I stepped through the grand double doors of the Kensington estate, I had just watched the judge deny bail to the monsters who raised me.

My biological parents paid zero attention to the blood daughter who had been switched at birth. All their energy was laser focused on the fragile, weeping impostor sitting on the velvet sofa.

Officer Riley, the cop who drove me to the estate, had noticed my silence in the cruiser. She had patted my shoulder gently. "Don't worry, Ivy. Blood is thicker than water. Give it time, and your parents will definitely see how wonderful you are."
