He called her Opium because his love for her was like an obsession. He drew a poppy tattoo on his chest—an ideal copy of her flower, the symbol of immortality of their feeling. He promised her a home by the river, children, prosperity, and high walls of his protection and care. And he gave her all of it… but not her. A family secret shattered all their hopes and dreams, revealing an insurmountable obstacle—they can’t be together. God’s ways are inscrutable, but every person’s happiness is in their own hands. The second book of the Opium series. Forbidden.
