Asiya was cruising through life, totally okay with carrying more weight than she could. Or at least, that's what she wanted everyone to think. Yusuf was cool and supposedly composed, committed to working hard. Or at least, that was the plan until Asiya bumped into him. When they first met as classmates, age and circumstance kept them apart. But when Yusuf spotted Asiya again, almost five years later, he wasted no time confessing his admiration-kicking off a marriage full of trials, insecurities, and other forces determined to tear them apart. Will their faithfulness be enough to conquer it all? - - - - - First Published November 28th 2022. All Rights Reserved © RegretfulSinner 2022.

***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain. *** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
