Don't Let Go Trilogy #1

• • • •







When I was just 5 years old, I used to love grandma's stories. Like, having an arranged marriage and being in love.









It was magical but now that I really think about it, it's a bit silly.









Why? It's simple. Less freedom.









Girlfriends. Boyfriends. Sleep-overs. Parties. Journeys. You can't possibly do all of those things when your hands are tied.









Besides, what if you don't love that person? And that you'll never, ever, learn to love that person? Can't you choose the person that your heart wants instead?











Seriously, love is complicated.

Kira Castelle is an amiable, easy-to-talk-to, and a laid-back 17 year old lady that has sworn to put love aside and continue reaching for her dreams.







Not until a perfect storm happened.









When females turn 18 and males turn 21, they are assigned a marriage partner by the government.









With this, they just have to wait for the country to find their compatible partner and become happy.









When Kira Castelle finally turned 18, she has to meet her partner.











Neal Valastro.











A drop-dead gorgeous man of stone.









He's the epitome of perfection and Kira's polar opposite.









The problem is, will this work out just fine for Kira?









Will she ever be Ready? or Not?
