ENCOUNTER.

She is a 21st. century woman living in the 19th century.
A marriage she never chose. A stranger she cannot ignore.
Forced into an unexpected union, Freya guards her heart against a world that thrives on betrayal and male masculinity. But the man she weds, quiet, kind, and hiding secrets, awakens a longing she did not know she needed. As her defences falter, hidden truths and people threaten to destroy the fragile bond between them.

She vowed never to surrender to a man until fate bound her to a stranger.
