I'm really pleased to introduce Tina, our latest new author friend.. Her story here is one the sweetest I've read. She's from an Indian family, though now living in a different Asian country. Arranged marriages are common among Indians living there. If you've ever wondered how love and romance are possible in such a marriage, this story will put all your doubts to rest. Romance, love, and marriage can thrive in any culture!
I know that after reading this story, you'll be dying to know whether Tina is describing her own marriage. Well, so was I and I asked her. Yes, she's telling her story here, with her husband's blessing! They wanted to share with Westerners their Eastern way of romancing. What a beautiful marriage!

                       Tina's Preface

This story is written from an Asian wife's point of view in a culture where couples live with in-laws. This first story tells how a girl finds it hard to make love for the first time with her husband, since it was an arranged marriage. Arranged marriages are common in certain countries where the bride would barely know her husband before marriage. Love in arranged marriage usually happens after marriage and can be very interesting.
