Cara Entailed

Cara Whitlock inherits a vast Northumberland estate worth nearly two hundred million pounds. The condition is simple and absolute: she must complete a ninety-day residential programme of total compliance. Every morning at six she receives her orders. What she may wear. How she may stand. Where she may sit. What she may not touch. The dress they give her is deliberately too short. The rules are deliberately impossible to keep perfectly. Every breach is recorded in a ledger that only ever adds days. She is measured, dressed, displayed, and watched. She is intelligent, sharp-tongued, and not used to losing. The house does not care. Ninety days of controlled exposure, institutional humiliation, and slow, precise surrender. She can walk away at any moment. One word ends everything. Including the fortune. She has not said it yet.
