ARTIFICIAL

Tired of the nagging of his relentless parents, Nathaniel Lake Wader finds himself a wife. A woman both acceptable as his shiny object to keep his parents happy and operate his underground work without having them at his back. But what he finds is more than he bargained for, because in his world love is a word the less intelligent use as an excuse to find company.

Yet a beauty made from the sweetest treats presents herself and changes his perspective in everything.

Born in the wrong family, raised in the harshest conditions, Ravina somehow came out of the mines as the brightest diamond of all. Her life had been decided before she learned what people do to conceive a child, and so as a young girl in fear, she vowed to do only what she was told so she would survive. Willing to give her body and mind to keep the one she cared for alive, even if she doesn't get the same affection in return.

But unlike everyone else, he does not take her body, instead he claims her heart, mind and soul. Like the devil, his hands claw deep inside her eyes to claim her whole.
