Love me forever by Nora Roberts . Try also Gentle Feuding -Johanna Lindsey
Erotic Stories for Punjabi Widows deals with the subject.
I just finished it – and second the recommendation.
Me too
Although a children’s book, Sarah, Plain and Tall, by Patricia MacLachlan, is about a mail-order bride. It was the 1986 Newbery Winner.
I just read The Good Earth by Pearl S Buck. The novel is about so many things, but arranged marriage is in the core of the reading.
The Ghost Bride by Yangsze Choo!
I was going to recommend this one as well.
many of the short stories by Jhumpa Lahiri talk about arranged marriages from India, she is a great writer!
A thousand splendid suns
A thousand Splendid Suns, the Pearl that Broke it’s Shell
Shabanu by Suzanne Fisher Staples is a classic.
For Matrimonial Purposes by Kavita Daswani
Chitra Divakaruni writes a lot about that. I think she even has a book of short stories called Arranged Marriages. Sister of my Heart was also wonderful
the Matched series is good! It’s young adult and dystopian but I enjoyed it!!
