       ‘Look after me for a couple of weeks and I’ll set you free.’

       ‘What do you mean, set me free?’ Poppy asked.

      Orsino’s mouth curled up at one side. ‘That should be obvious. I’ll give you a divorce.’

      Poppy stared. Was he offering an easy divorce because that was what he wanted or because he thought she did? Had he found someone else to fill the rarefied position of his wife? For years she’d resolutely turned her thoughts away from Orsino with anyone else. Even though he wore gorgeous women like fashion accessories every time he appeared in public.

      A hollow ache started up beneath her ribs. She told herself it was stress from the long journey and from facing Orsino again.

      ‘Why should I go to such bother, when I could just visit a lawyer and file for divorce?’

      He didn’t like that. She saw his mouth tighten.

      ‘Because I have it in my power to make divorce easy.’ He paused. ‘Or hard. You get to choose whether it’s smooth and painless or drawn out and very, very public.’

      No mistaking the threat in the rough velvet timbre of his voice. Silence throbbed between them, fraught with a challenge she didn’t dare refuse.

      ‘You’ve got yourself a deal, Orsino. I’ll give you a couple of weeks for old times’ sake and then I never want to see you again.’

       Step into the opulent glory of the world’s most elite hotel, where clients are the impossibly rich and exceptionally famous.

       Whether you’re in America, Australia, Europe or Dubai, our doors will always be open …

       Welcome to

       Synonymous with style, sensation … and scandal!

      For years, the children of Gene Chatsfield—global hotel entrepreneur—have shocked the world’s media with their exploits. But no longer! When Gene appoints a new CEO, Christos Giatrakos, to bring his children into line, little did he know what he was starting.

      Christos’ first command scatters the Chatsfields to the furthest reaches of their international holdings—from Las Vegas to Monte Carlo, Sydney to San Francisco … but will they rise to the challenge set by a man who hides dark secrets in his past?

       Let the games begin!

      Your room has been reserved, so check in to enjoy all the passion and scandal we have to offer.

      ANNIE WEST spent her childhood with her nose between the covers of a book—a habit she retains. After years spent preparing government reports and official correspondence, she decided to write something she really enjoys. And there’s nothing she loves more than a great romance. Despite her office-bound past she has managed a few interesting moments—including a marriage offer with the promise of a herd of camels to sweeten the contract. She is happily married to her ever-patient husband (who has never owned a dromedary). They live with their two children amongst the tall eucalypts at beautiful Lake Macquarie, on Australia’s east coast. You can contact Annie through her website, www.annie-west.com, or write to her at PO Box 1041, Warners Bay, NSW 2282, Australia.
