    About this audiobook

    One moment I'm the forgotten daughter of one of the most wealthy families in the country, and the next I'm the blushing bride in an arranged marriage. My fate is sealed in my wedded union with a complete stranger.

    In public, Perry Constantine is the life of the party. Easygoing. Adored. In private, he's brooding. Dark. Angry. But so am I. It's a contest of wills to see who will break in the bedroom first, and while I try to remain strong, I find myself craving the very man I swore to hate.

    My husband.

    Contains mature themes.

      I like the book but I don't understand why the audio sometimes just mutes, it keeps playing but I can't hear anything. I thought it was my phone or something, but no, it's the audio and that pisses me off. I can't enjoy the book in those conditions
