Excerpt:

"He will father your children..."

When Catriona Hennessy, honorable Scottish Lady of the Vale, received this prediction, she was exceedingly aghast. How could she unite with a rake like Richard Cynster--a masterful man with a scandalous reputation? More shocking still was her guardian's will that decreed she and Richard be wed within a week! Though charmed by his commanding presence, and wooed by his heated kisses, she would not--could not--give up her independence.

So she formed a plan to get the heir she needed without taking wedding vows.Richard was just as stunned by the will's command. Marriage had not previously been on his agenda, but lately he'd been feeling rather...restless. Perhaps taming the lady was just the challenge he needed. But can he have the rights of the marriage bed without making any revealing promises of love?


"4½ STARS, EXCEPTIONAL! - A TOP PICK! And a K.I.S.S. Hero! Get ready to have your heart stolen by another Cynster in this wonderfully written, delightful tale that sizzles with sensuality. Stephanie Laurens knows how to enchant readers, not only with her steamy love scenes, but with her wonderfully real and memorable characters, as well. Thanks goodness there will be more Cynsters and more breathtaking romances to come from one of the most talented authors on the scene today."
