The Raja's Imported Bride

What happens when a desperate woman becomes property of India's most dangerous man? VIVIAN

I was broke and Black in Boston. Nobody wanted me after father died. Then I saw the ad - rich British man needs wife in India. Good money. Nice house. I signed the papers without reading the fine print. Big mistake. Jonathan Blackwood isn't just rich. He's the White Raja - a British guy who rules part of India like a king. And that contract I signed? It says exactly what I gotta do in his bed. Every night. Every position. Everything. His palace is huge. His eyes are gray like storm clouds. When he touches me, my whole body gets hot. But his first wife died real strange. Now someone's trying to kill me too. The white ladies hate my Black skin. The Indian servants whisper I'm next to die. Jonathan dresses like an Indian prince and speaks their language. Nothing's what I expected. The worst part? I'm starting to want him. Bad. This man owns me like property, but my body don't care. Every night he makes me burn hotter. In 1885, a wife belongs to her husband completely. Now I gotta choose - run for my life or stay with the man who makes me feel things I never knew existed. JONATHAN I needed a wife who wouldn't ask questions. Someone desperate enough to sign my contract without flinching. Someone who'd do exactly what I wanted, when I wanted. I got Vivian Carter. She's Black, beautiful, and mine. Every inch of her belongs to me now. The contract makes that real clear. But she's not like my first wife. She's got fire. Spirit. Makes my blood run hot just looking at her. Problem is, someone wants her dead. Just like Priya. The British hate me for going native. The Indians don't trust me. And Vivian? She's starting to dig up secrets that could get us both killed. I should send her back to America. Keep her safe. But I can't. Not when her dark skin feels like silk under my hands. Not when she moans my name in the dark. Not when I'm starting to want more than just her body. I'm the White Raja. I take what I want. But Vivian might be the one thing I can't afford to keep. THE RAJA'S IMPORTED BRIDE She came for money. He paid for ownership. They never expected to burn for each other.
