Anything, and Everything to Win Her Back

Landon Palmer goes through his marriage without knowing that his wife is the woman he has been in love with. Yelena Summers was sold off by her birth parents as a child and raised in another house as a piece to be spent on a marriage between families. The spending of it put her with Landon, whom she had wanted for years and never told. In the marriage there is the bed and there is the duty and there is nothing beyond that. The two of them read each other wrong, and the wrong readings pile up until the marriage ends in divorce. Only once she is out of the house does Landon work out who she had been to him. He sets about getting her back, and it is slow going.
