After reading "Jo and Laurie" by Stohl and De La Cruz, I was unsatisfied. In this tale, I have taken some elements of their plotline and made it my own. This is how I would have wanted the re-telling to look like, a lot more relationship building, character building, and reality. I intend to give Jo and Laurie the "Hollywood ending" we all dream of, while still making the story feel real.…

When strangers from completely different backgrounds get married...--Shifting as the cool breeze toyed with my senses, I sighed at my husband standing so far away, leaning against the yacht's railing and drowning out the world behind him. He didn't want to be here. He didn't want to introduce me as his wife and have to deal with social disapproval.In the world of upper-class snobs and elites, I was a complete outsider...an unwanted addition. I had no place among the rich, no way to make many accept my crass and clumsy ways. My husband hated me, and his family was all ready to make him move on to a lady who would match his standard. I simply was an ignored wife, a wounded reject and a lonely fool. --Sweet and friendly Maya could never repay the favours bestowed upon her by the great ladyship of Naveria 'Madam Geena'. That 70-year-old woman had not only treated her like a daughter, given her shelter and a well-paying job when she first arrived at Hill City to earn for her family but was also her wisest mentor. However, with favours comes expectations, and Maya just couldn't say no when Madam Geena asked her to marry her spoiled grandson 'Demir', tame his rakish ways, and adopt the ways of the rich. It was a heartbreaking offer. Demir wasn't known for dealing with people below his class, but Maya really didn't have a choice. Madam Geena meant the world to her. Thus, after getting married to a rich spoiled-brat, feeling her heart melt with fondness and watching as he completely ignored her existence and humiliated her ways, Maya was soon to realize that despite belonging to different worlds and having their own reasons for choosing to get married, both she and her husband were hurting in their own ways. Their worlds might have been completely different, but they both were equally miserable, lonely and broken.(Featured on Wattpad Chicklit's Reading List)…
