My Dearest Disaster-in-Law

Lali Vashadze is many things: a gifted mimic, a shameless flirt, and a survivor. What she is not is her sister, Nana - the soul of kindness who just fled her own arranged marriage. When Nana's jilted fiancé, the monstrously scarred and notoriously reclusive Kordian Sturua, demands a substitute, Lali has no choice but to step into her sister's ridiculously sensible shoes. Her mission: play the part of a sweet, doting fiancée long enough to secure her younger brother's future. Kordian, a brilliant Artificer haunted by a catastrophic failure that cost hundreds their lives, wants nothing more than to be left alone in his grim, clockwork manor. He sees this marriage as a tedious obligation, and Lali's saccharine 'sunshine' routine as an unbearable irritation. But as Lali's cheeky, irrepressible true self keeps slipping through the cracks of her performance, she uncovers a man buried not in monstrosity, but in grief. As they're forced to work together against a new threat born from his past failure, Lali's carefully constructed act begins to crumble. Can she pull off the con of a lifetime without losing her own heart in the process?
