Book Description
Blurb
From the back cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance, August 2011, UK Edition:
‘While it has been reported that I may be missing my own soul, I have no interest in yours. This is about money.’ When Ella’s failing business comes wrapped up as part of Blaise Chevalier’s recent takeover, he plans to discard it – as is his usual way with surplus goods. Then he meets Ella! Cast from the same fiery mould as he is, she makes an intriguing adversary. Perhaps he could have a little fun with his new acquisition…
As proud and strong as she is beautiful, Ella is determined to prove Blaise wrong about her business and her worth. As long as she hides her hint of vulnerability and denies the flicker of attraction between them when she catches her enemy’s eye…
Excerpt
From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance, August 2011, UK Edition:
"I'm willing to work with you in whatever way I can to ensure our success."
A wry smile curved his wicked mouth. He wasn't fooled by her display of calm, and that made her angry. That he could see through her. That he was amused by her.
Ella extended her hand and he grasped it. Lightning shot through her, unexpected, instant, as if she'd touched a naked wire. It mingled with the anger, the adrenaline that was already pounding through her, and made her feel shaky, as if her knees might give out at any moment.
She looked up and met his eyes, and saw heat. Attraction. He looked down at where their hands were joined, his large and dark, hers small and pale. And marred. He ran his thumb over one of the scars that blazed a jagged path over the back of her hand.
The heat fled, leaving in its place an icy shiver that made her feel cold inside. She pulled her hand from his grasp.
His gaze lingered on her. "It will be a pleasure doing business with you."
