Fics like Unexpected Details

Sophie inherits the Penwood title as the legitimate daughter of Richard Gunningworth, despite no one knowing that the title could be passed to a daughter if there was no son. This revelation surprises everyone, especially Araminta, who “raised” Sophie under sufferance and under the assumption she was a bastard due to her mother’s lower social standing and the scandal surrounding her conception. At the will reading, Araminta is shocked to discover the title will go to Sophie, not the cousin she had arranged for her daughter Rosamund to marry. To complicate matters, Rosamund is already betrothed due to Richard’s legally binding contract, meaning Rosamund must marry the unsuitable cousin unless Sophie, as the new Countess, decides otherwise. Richard’s will also states that Sophie’s husband will become Earl, making Sophie a highly sought-after match when she enters society at 19, as every untitled male vies for the title and her substantial dowry. Will Sophie find a man who will love her for who she is, or will this unexpected twist cause a wrinkle in her hopes for a happily ever after?
