     In the present day, Sean Ferro told Avery Stanz about his past marriage engagements. She could hardly believe that her Madam, the strict and controlling Miss Black, would have been engaged to the man of her dreams. Miss Black once told Avery about her time as a call girl, about her one true regret: that she had held onto the job too long, that she had let the right guy slip away. In Krista Lakes' first Kindle Worlds novella, travel back to the past with Miss Black, to a world a decade before H.M. Ward's "The Arrangement", to a time before the tragic end to Sean Ferro's marriage. Told from Miss Black's point-of-view, this story is the first part of the story of how she fell hard for the charms of Sean Ferro, and how she eventually came to be the Madam that we all love to hate. This story can be read without prior knowledge of "The Arrangement", however some parts that are referenced will be more enjoyable if you are already familiar with H.M. Ward's bestselling serial.
