Book Synopsis The Obedient Bride by : Mary Balogh

Download or read book The Obedient Bride written by Mary Balogh. This book was released on 2020-06-02. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Geoffrey, the new Viscount Astor, needs a wife. Since he sets no great store by love and romance, he decides it would be eminently sensible to offer marriage to one of the three daughters of his predecessor. He has never met any of them and has no preference. He leaves the choice to them and their mother. Arabella, the middle daughter, volunteers to make the sacrifice and marry the earl since her older, far more lovely, sister is already in love with someone else. She prays that he will be an older man of few attractions, for she sees herself as plain and uninteresting. She is dismayed to discover that Geoffrey is, in fact, young, handsome, and fashionable. She vows to be a dutiful, obedient wife and to devote her life to making him comfortable. Arabella's plan seems to be working nicely for both Geoffrey and herself—until, that is, she discovers something about him that shocks her to the core. It is an offense she considers quite unforgivable. And when Arabella makes up her mind about something, she is not easily persuaded to change it. Geoffrey is finally shaken out of his complacency to the discovery that his wife means far more to him than he had realized. But how is he to win her back when she flatly refuses to be wheedled out of her outrage?

Download or read book The Diary of an Obedient Wife written by Karola Woods. This book was released on 2017-11-30. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Wives, submit to your husbands as unto the Lord'... Christian artist Emily King's been married to cycling IT geek Tim for five years when she comes across a list of promises she made when they first walked down the aisle. Crazy promises to be the world's most obedient wife! The problem is, she hasn't kept to any of them. What happens when she has another go? Let Emily take you by the hand and discover her hilarious diary, The Diary of an Obedient Wife. "If Tim said, 'Em, I want you to do jump through this hoop', for no reason whatsoever - would I, even though it's the world's most ridiculous request? It'd only take a minute, so maybe I would? I'd need to step through the hoop though, not leap, as I'm not remotely acrobatic - and if Tim wanted to have the hoop on fire though, surely he would see that that was preposterous (even if there were a crash mat on the other side, or a massive fire extinguisher). I CAN'T JUST DO EVERYTHING HE TELLS ME, CAN I, LORD?
