It follows Elizabeth Arden a young woman raised by a cold distant father and a prim proper aunt. Unsurprisingly Elizabeth comes of age with no sense of how to make her way in the world or what will make her happy. At a young age she marries a man she does not love and embarks on a life that does not fulfill her. From her wedding night on her marriage is a complete disaster. After a time she separates from her husband and tries to make her way in the world. To start she is little more than a spoiled girl but as the book unfolds Elizabeth struggles to become her own person and is surprised by just who she is and what she wants. A thoroughly satisfying novel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46443467604119,"sku":"9798880906147","price":1835.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798880906147.webp?v=1769126782","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/instead-of-the-thorn-9798880906147","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
