The Unexpected Bride: : A Marriage of Convenience Romance

By EMILY WILLSTON

The Unexpected Bride: A Marriage of Convenience Romance - A Love Neither of Them Expected...

Claire Sutton never imagined her wedding day would feel like a sentencing. Forced into marriage with a man she barely knows, she wears the gown of a bride but feels like a prisoner. She didn't choose this. She never wanted this. But when her family's future and the survival of her father's business are at stake, a marriage to a stranger becomes a sacrifice she has no choice but to marry the infamous, Nicholas Donovan, or watch her family fall into ruin.

Nicholas Donovan-powerful, cold, and seemingly indifferent-wasn't just a stranger. He was a man bound by his own obligations and secrets, a man whose name carried more weight than Claire could ever imagine. Their marriage isn't about love. It's about business, about survival, and about a promise neither of them made willingly.

Their wedding night is colder than the winter winds, but when an accident forces them into close quarters, Claire begins to see glimpses of the man behind the icy exterior. And Nicholas? He is utterly unprepared for the fire that burns beneath his bride's gentle facade.

But can a marriage born from obligation transform into something real?

When secrets are uncovered and desires grow impossible to ignore, Claire and Nicholas find themselves caught in a battle between duty and passion. She is desperate for freedom. He is terrified of love. And just when they think they have a chance at happiness, a dark betrayal threatens to destroy everything.

Can they learn to trust what's in their hearts, or will they let the past dictate their future?
