Including TTS voices in TTS supporting software

Let's say that I want to add TTS support to my project, and that I hate the voice of Microsoft Sam, Microsoft Mike and Microsoft Mary.
Would it be possible for me to include a new TTS voice that I bought into my software, so that the TTS support could be limited to the voices I included, instead of the software picking voices from the computer it runs on?

If so, what engine / sdk should I use for this?
I have been searching for answers on google, but I can only find ways to use SAPI with voices from the computer.

SAPI Voices that are paid are usually licensed to the owner of the computer. You might be able to include free TTS voices from the Festival Engine.
