LOVE ALONE IS NEVER ENOUGH.

Thandi always knew she wasn't destined for greatness. She'd never be anything but someone's wife. Nothing would come of her life, so she submitted. She submitted to her father's wrath. Her aunt, however, wanted more for her niece. She knew that if her niece ever wanted to escape her brother, the chief, they needed to play him at his own game. Thandi's aunt knew if she ever wanted her niece to be free from her brother, she needed to keep him away from her for as long as she could. She knew her niece didn't have much of a choice in her future. The only way for Thandi to get some kind of control over her own life is getting married to the man of her choice before her father married her off to the highest bidder. Thandi and her aunt escaped their village to live in the city. They did everything in their power to keep the chief calm and distracted. The only way to do so was for her aunt to promise to teach her how to be a good traditional wife and, most importantly, stay a virgin. That was his biggest rule. Stay a virgin. One drunken mistake causes Thandi to lose her virginity, and her aunt knows the race is on. Either Thandi finds a man that she loves and is willing to submit to, or she marries one of her father's perverted friends. Will Thandi find her knight in shining armor, and if she does, will he be worth it?
