Synopsis

Charlotte Bourbon, a 19-year-old widow, was happy in her life after she got married to the man of her dreams. However, because of a sudden illness, her husband died within a month, and Charlotte's life came to a sudden halt.

‘She became the curse for her husband that he died young.’

‘She is the one, who killed her husband.’

‘She should have died with her husband.’

Numerous such things Charlotte would hear from the people around her in the palace when she decided to take her life. However, was it that easy to die?

Édouard Bourdillon was the eldest son of King Christian Bourdillon of the Kingdom of Escana. He decided to marry the widow of his late younger brother so that he could take over the Beromont territory which his brother possessed.

But was this the only reason he wanted to marry Charlotte?

~~~~~~~~

"What are you doing?" Terrified Charlotte asked as she saw Édouard unbuttoning his shirt.

"I am hot, so I am taking off the shirt," Édouard said and reached for the last button.

"But it's cold weather," Charlotte said and knitted her brows.

"Not here, Charlotte. Your mere presence around me makes me hot," Édouard said and took off the shirt.

"Ahhh!" Charlotte quickly brought her hands in front of her eyes and covered them. From the gaps between her fingers, she peeked out of curiosity.

A lump formed in her throat as she saw his perfectly carved body with a few scars on the chest and near the abdomen.

Charlotte saw him approaching her and she tightly shut her eyes. A few seconds later, when she realized everything was so quiet, she opened her eyes again and found him before her.

She promptly moved back and hit the wall behind her. She thought to leave the room when Édouard caged her petite body between his arms.

"Are you going to—"

"Yes. I want to be wild with you tonight, Little Cherry," Édouard said with a smirk, and the next second, he lifted her in his arms.

    I love the book from the start! It’s quick to get to the point of the title and immediately the mystery and drama starts! The lead characters have a quarrel from the start but the informal way they treat each other with honesty is so refreshing. I cannot wait to uncover all the mysteries. Dear author you never disappoint and I am a loyal reader from way back!! I wish you luck on this book and will be here to the end!!❤️❤️

    A very good read with scenes that are not explicit at all. I would recommend it any time to even my children . kudos to the author for a good flow and lots of intrigue. it's very real as if it's based in real stories . lots of life lessons are showcased of believing in love and hope. believing in family. turning supposed tragedies into great relationships.

    Read the first few chapters and I am already in love with the ML😘 I have always loved such graceful and elegant leads rather than arrogant ones, so I will wholeheartedly support the story. As expected my sister is a genius when it comes to creating historical novels. Bravo sis, love and all best wishes to you🥰

    I'm in love with Edouard. You know why? Guys with Unrequited Love and finally getting them gives me you. Imagine how much he will treasure his Lady! The story starts with the death of Charlotte's first husband and let's not get into the depth of it because I'm a Edouard girl and Mathieu has nothing to do with me. You just need to read first few chapters and you will understand the flow of the story. It's just amazing. Everything about it is amazing. I am really wishing for Charlotte to give her new husband a chance to love and care for her but I agree that he needs to earn.

    I've read the full story. I'm completely in love with all the characters. Especially the Main male lead. Every single one was human enough to have a good and a bad side.The characters were well portrayed. I've learnt many things myself along this journey. But among them, "being gracious to others AND yourself" was something that I'll always remember.Ray. You did so well dear. Though if someday you ever plan to release a hardcopy version, let us know. I would LOVE to hold it with my own hands 🫂❤️

    This book has an intriguing start and a mystery that captivates you from the start. If you like royalty and historical novels this is a great one. The characters are relatable and layered. I love a slow reveal and this book delivers.

    Estou amando essa história de amor que se constrói aos poucos. Amo ver a paciência e devoção que Edouard tem por Charlotte. A forma como ele a está curando é revigorante para mim. Tão lindo o amor dele... apaixonada! 🥰

    So, the author is good with her writing and is aware of the plot development. The vibe is light and the characters are described in great detail. What hooked me are the few facts that will be discovered in the future, and I will not give spoilers. The only thing that I would have liked to be a bit more, is the world building. Other than that it was a satisfying read.

    It's a good story to read while you relax with a cup of coffee 😊 A great start that had me hooked and there a are suspnses that keeps on the edge but it's mostly a romance than a thrillers 🥰 No gore or extreme unbearable emotions so this book is a go for even the faint hearts 🤗 There are no unnecessary chapters added to increase the length and everything is to the point but detailed so you can actually visualize everything happens here. Overall, it's a very good book to read and I definitely recommend it to t those who are looking g for heartwarming light hearted read 💕💕 P.S.: Writing quality can be improved.
