"Difficult" Women Deserve HEAs, Too

Complex, often unlikeable antiheroines are some of my favorite women in historical romance. Unrepentant social climbers, gold-diggers, gossips. Strident, cold, sexually-liberated. All welcome, along with the besotted men they leave in their wake!

(comment with recs please!!)
