Determined to resist, Francesca steels herself against her new husband. But Mateo is not the cold-hearted captor she expected. He is patient, kind, and willing to give her the freedom she thought she had lost. As days turn to nights filled with stolen glances and whispered promises, Francesca begins to wonder—is love possible in a marriage built on deception?
But when she uncovers the truth—that she was not a bride, but a bargain—her fragile happiness shatters.
Can Mateo prove his love is real before she walks away forever?
A tale of passion, betrayal, and love found in the most unexpected of places, The Merchant’s Bargained Bride is a romance to steal your heart.
