The Jasmine Wife: The perfect emotional page-turning historical fiction novel for 2023

A gripping and stunning historical romance set in the British Raj for fans of Dinah Jefferies and global bestseller Lucinda Riley At midnight where the jasmine blooms, a woman waits for her lover… Sara Archer’s future as the dutiful wife of a British official in India seems assured, until a chance meeting with the gorgeous and powerful Ravi Sabran changes everything. Under the heat of the Indian sun, the veneer of polite society wears off quickly and soon Sara realises that nothing is as it appears to be, especially her husband Charles… But in the beautiful jasmine gardens of the Maharajah’s palace, Sara follows a forbidden path… away from her bullying husband, towards Ravi and the long-buried secrets of her own birth. In the regency era, Sara Archer finds herself entangled in a web of fiction-like events, her life becoming a saga of its own.
