August 4, 2026 | Period Romance, Drama

1925. Mauritius. Lucy Gladwell arrives an orphan, sent to live under her uncle’s control — and his plans for her future. Then she meets Krishna. What begins as a chance encounter becomes a love neither of them chose, and neither of them can stop. But this is a world built to keep them apart, and paradise has never been safe for a love like theirs. PRISONERS OF PARADISE is a story about the connections that find us before we’re ready — and the ones the world won’t let us keep. 2hr 16min
