Summary
Tommy Shelby has an image problem.
The papers know it. What little remains of his family knows it. And political voters sure as hell know it.
Half his family are dead. Ruby's gone. Lizzie left.
He's buried himself too deep with the fascists to jump ship now.

Charlotte Ellesmere was supposed to be a Nun. She vowed to give her life to her God, to join the convent.
Her parents offer her in marriage to Thomas Shelby instead.
Everyone insists it's what God would want. That she can redeem a broken man.
He might just damn her instead.

Summary
Corinium Television, a once-prestigious production company tucked away in the English countryside, is in crisis. To salvage its public image, Tony Baddingham calls in a specialist: Alexandra Thorne: a glacial redhead, divorced from a powerful politician, a single mother, and a ruthless strategist.
Reluctantly, she returns to the Cotswolds, surrounded by rumors, former friends, old enemies, and a workplace unsure whether to fear her or admire her. Amid budget cuts, sabotaged costumes, and crumbling scripts, Alexandra must lead the charge to modernize Corinium… and stop Venturer from claiming victory.
What she didn’t expect? Declan O’Hara: a rugged, serious, mildly infuriating Irish journalist with an inconvenient history of accidental charm.
Between dangerous flirtations, whispered exchanges in crowded rooms, behind-the-scenes cold wars, and nights where there’s only one bed… what happens when she begins to suspect she may have chosen the wrong side of the story?
Too late to run. And Alexandra Thorne has never been one to back down from a fight.
