Beauty Mom and the Beast Stepdad

Sold to a scarred, limping farmer for $2,000, six-year-old Stella expects only more cruelty. But the man they call a monster gives her a warm bed, a full stomach, and the first kindness she’s ever known.

As Stella grows stronger and dreams of healing her new father’s leg, the sudden return of her supposedly dead biological father threatens to tear her fragile new family apart—unveiling a betrayal far darker than anyone imagined.
