The One-Year Wife

The rule was simple: “You will not fall in love with me.” For forty-one years, Zeynep’s little bakery in Istanbul has smelled of her grandmother’s cinnamon buns. Until a company buys the whole street. Its owner, Emir Karahan, is cold, arrogant, and hasn’t eaten a single sweet thing in twenty-two years. On the first day, Zeynep calls him soulless. The next day, he comes back with a contract. A one-year fake marriage. Separate rooms. Three-second kisses for the cameras. In return, the bakery will be saved. Zeynep adds a clause of her own: “Neither will you.” But a honeymoon suite with only one bed, a secret shared in a dark kitchen at midnight, and the smell of cinnamon aren’t in any contract. 📖 53 pages, 14 chapters + epilogue 📱 PDF format, readable on phone, tablet and computer 💕 Contract marriage, one bed, a jealous husband and a finale that will make you cry If you love romantic short dramas, you’ll finish this story smiling.
