A Serenade with Beauty: A Kurdish Love Story Kindle Edition

Shahram "Ram" Zare carries a dark secret—shadows of unresolved pain. Five years earlier, he and his brother fled their home country after a tribal war, but now, the ghosts have settled, and their uncle travels to the US, hoping to encourage the brothers to marry. And Ram has been charged with finding a pseudo-fiancée for his older brother, Javad. His search leads him to a beautiful woman. He hesitates to ask her to be a pawn in such an archaic system of duty, especially as his heart grows deeper in love with her.

As Mia Phillips watches her mother slip away from cancer, she bows under the pressure of unpaid bills and heartache. No amount of soul searching fills her empty bank account… or her indecision over the most breathtaking man. Ram offers her a life change, yet not with him—a fake marriage of convenience to his brother. Javad is too hard and rigid, but Ram… he is the other half of her soul. Yet they must remain friends to make the lie seem real. Or will they?

Everything comes down to propriety, honor, and the right to choose the love of their hearts…

They fled their home to be safe but now their uncle wants them to marry but his older brother must be first. So he goes in hunt for them but when he finds her, she is prefect. It seems they are linked together. She has so many bills and her mother is dying so when he comes with his offer. She is unsure especially as she is drawn to him. What will she do? Will she pretend like they want? How will it all go? See how it goes

5.0 out of 5 stars "I'd wait an eternity for your smile, Mia Jaan."
Reviewed in the United States on August 7, 2021
Ram intends to set Mia up in a fake engagement with his cousin, to meet family and cultural requirement for marriage. But he falls in love with her first. This is a beautiful journey for these two, and I'm so glad to have read it. The story is moving, and I loved reading about the cultural aspects of Ram's family. With tears of sorrow at times, of joy at others, Mia's mother is an incredible woman who raised an incredible woman.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm so glad I read this book
Reviewed in the United States on February 18, 2016
There are only a few authors that I must read every new release as they come out, and Beth Mikell is one of those authors. With that being said, I didn't know a thing about the Kurdish culture or people, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I'm so glad I read this book. I came away from it with a new understanding of the Kurdish culture that I probably wouldn't have had otherwise.
I really liked Mia and was even brought to tears during a conversation she had with her mother. It was heart-wrenching for sure. I definitely recommend this book. It was so refreshing to read something different from everything else I've read. If you're looking for diversity in your romance, then pick this one up.
