Reluctant Wife

By Lindsay Armstrong

Heat level
Behind closed doors

"We made a bargain," Adam reminded her Roz knew that Adam had married her without loving her. He needed a poised and beautiful hostess--but her need was even greater. A fire had killed her beloved grandfather and destroyed her home, leaving her alone and vulnerable. As an adolescent she had woven fantasies about Adam Milroy, never expecting her dreams would come true, but she dared not let him know her feelings. His first disastrous marriage had left him cynical about women, and the role she was expected to play did not include loving him.

For your information, not judgment.

Severity reflects intensity, not value — “central theme” means a warning is a core part of the book, not that the book is bad.
