Love's Bitterest Cup

by E.D.E.N. Southworth

In "Love's Bitterest Cup," the sequel to "Her Mother's Secret," the story of Le and Odalite's forbidden love continues. Their wedding is disrupted by Angus Anglesea, who arrives to claim Odalite as his bride, claiming a prior right to her hand. Determined to expose Anglesea's villainy, the protagonists embark on a journey that leads them across the Atlantic to England, seeking the truth behind his deceptive claim. With each revelation, the stakes rise, and the quest for justice takes a complex and dangerous turn, forcing them to confront not only Anglesea's machinations but also their own personal vulnerabilities and the depths of love's complexities.
