Bedded, banished, pregnant!
Talented photographer Coral Dahl can’t afford any distractions on her first major photo shoot. But the beauty of her location, the private Greek island of Hydros, is nothing compared to the lethal charisma of its owner, tycoon Raffaele Rossini! A charisma that wary, innocent Coral is powerless to resist...
Coral is astonished to discover her family is scandalously entwined with Rafa’s, and she has a claim on his inheritance. Branded a gold digger, she’s dismissed from his bed, and his life. Yet the biggest surprise of all? Their one night of rapture had unexpected, permanent consequences!
Rafa still held her fingers in his hand. Coral knew she should pull them free but she didn’t want to.
“Why do I feel that this is dangerous…?”
“I’ve got nothing to gain by kissing you other than pleasure. That should tell you all you need to know.”
She felt almost woozy now, with the lovely sensation as he continued to stroke his fingers round her wrist.
“Pleasure?” she repeated stupidly.
“That’s right. I just want to give you pleasure. Nothing else.”
He closed his hand around her fingers and gently tugged her towards him.
“Why deny yourself what you know you want?”
“I don’t even know what I want any more.”
“I know you want me to kiss you…don’t you?”
He moved a fraction closer. She could see the eyelashes that framed each eye, the fine line of his eyelid, the proud jut of his nose. She could scent him. No matter what her brain was saying, her body was reacting to this man on a level she’d never experienced before. She was almost completely lost.
Unable to sit still without reading, BELLA FRANCES first found romantic fiction at the age of twelve, in between deadly dull knitting patterns and recipes in the pages of her grandmother’s magazines. An obsession was born! But it wasn’t until one long, hot summer, after completing her first degree in English Literature, that she fell upon the legends that are Mills & Boon books. She has occasionally lifted her head out of them since to do a range of jobs, including barmaid, financial adviser and teacher, as well as to practise (but never perfect) the art of motherhood on two (almost grown-up) cherubs.
Bella lives a very energetic life in the UK, but tries desperately to travel for pleasure at least once a month—strictly in the interests of research!
