Linda needs our book help! ROAR!!!! Arranged marriage and he does some REALLY RUDE things!! GASP.
I’ve read a few like this in fact (arranged marriage and him stepping out on it anyway), and the other one was when they weren’t together, but she still lived there (ugh that was so hard)… but I think it might be a different one?
She asks:
Looking for a book I read earlier this year but cannot remember the title or author.
Heroine agrees to marry hero because she thinks her parents owe hero’s parents a lot of money and they cannot pay it back. Her parents tell her that her father may go to jail and they will lose everything.
She makes a deal with hero’s father to marry the son to repay the debt. Hero’s parent’s threaten hero that he will lose his company or his position if he doesn’t marry her.
Hero and heroine marry and agree to co-exist in his house for the specified amount of time to pay the debt. After they marry, the hero continues to go out with his friends to bars and parties and brings women home for sex.
Heroine can hear hero having sex from her bedroom so she sleeps on the sofa downstairs and watches TV so she will not hear them.
UPDATE FROM LINDA: I do not think the book I am trying to find has the mafia element or includes any type of murder. Thanks.
Anyone have a guess?
Maryse: The one that comes to mind is Sparrow by L.J. Shen. That one was TUMULTUOUS and infuriating!! Here’s my review.
Linda: I do not think it was Sparrow, I read that as well and it is similar to the one I am looking for. I do not think the book I am trying to find has the mafia element or includes any type of murder. Thanks.
Barb: I was thinking this could be Kiss Thief by LJ Shen. This has a similar vibe to it.
Kelly: I swear I know this book. Is it from a few years ago? Was there a scene where the H was having sex in his bedroom and the h was knocking at his door and the H opens the door smirking and then slams the door in her?
Linda: I haven’t read the Kiss Thief so I do not think it was that one either. Kelly’s response to my question sounds like something I remember, gosh I wish I could remember something else.
Samantha: I have definitely read this one too! Mafia feel to it, I’ll search my read books… It’s not The Wolf and the Sheep by Penelope Sky is it?
Andrea: It sounds like The Wolf and the Sheep by Penelope Sky.
Linda: Actually it’s not that one either, but the series sounds good so I will probably buy and read it now, LOL Thanks.
Ortal: Is it Three Loving Words by DC Renee?
Linda: The last guess is right. It is Three Loving Words by DC Renee. Thanks for everything and love to read your daily updates.
Maryse: YAY!!!! Another one solved and a bunch of awesome sounding books to read, too! This was a fun one! 😀 Thanks everyone!!!

Thank you Barb! I added it. 🙂

For me, the other one I was thinking about was Beautiful Disaster, when he came home with 1 (or was it 2?) girls and she could hear them… doing it in the living room.
I have definitely read this one too! Mafia feel to it, I’ll search my read books…
