Publisher Description
“A marriage of convenience is the sweetest revenge, but if she thinks he only wants her for her money, she’s sadly mistaken.”
AN ARRANGED MARRIAGE / REVENGE ROMANCE
Six years ago, Harold Dalton framed me for theft and sent me to jail to steal my diamond discovery. He gave his daughter to Jack Clarke in exchange for the excavation rights. Today, I’m walking free, and I’m coming for him with a vengeance. Six years of cruelty make beasts out of men. I’m going to take back what he stole from me, and more. I’m not interested in his properties or shares. I don’t want his small change. I want his biggest asset. Beautiful, mentally unstable, Angelina Dalton-Clarke.
Worth billions, she’s the wealthiest widow in the country, and also the craziest. Her self-harming tendencies had Jack declare her incompetent before he put a gun to his head and blew out his brains. Lina isn’t allowed to touch a cent of her riches. Her father manages her finances. He has all the signing power. As her husband, that chore will fall to me. But if she thinks I only want her for her money, she’s sadly mistaken.

This book was an amazing read. I loved every page I read. I would definitely recommend this. It had me totally hooked! Lina and Damian were wonderful characters with so much chemistry between them.

Her Sacrifice For Freedom
OMG what can I say about this magnificent book by the inimitable Charmaine Paul’s? There are more secrets, lies and betrayal than you can shake a stick at in this amazing dark, heartbreaking, tragic story of the broken Angelina-Lina Dalton Clarke! I just could not put this gripping, fast paced tale down! A beautiful storyline that drags you along kicking and screaming for someone to listen to Lina from the outset of this tragic story! Damian Hart only has a 6 year vengeful lust and thirst for justice against the Dalton-Clarke family. All Lina has had is a life of hate, torture and cruelty from her father and husband, she was just a walking bank roll to everyone she ever met! Will the Dalton Empire fall now that Damien’s thirst for vengeance has arrived? Will Lina always be unreachable to any man? Can Damien unravel her dark secrets and peel back the many layers to Lina? Is Hart Diamond’s worth the lives broken and taken? Lina’s scars make her a very brave, proud woman but will anyone ever believe anything she says and will her scars continue to define her? Will Lina be his ‘happy death’ and his possible downfall? So many many twist and turns in this amazing psychological thriller that I only wish I could have given far more than the well deserved 5 stars 🌟
