&lt;br /&gt;
He’ll stop at nothing to settle old scores! &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When Angelos Petrakos spies supermodel Thea Dauntry in a swanky London restaurant, he knows she’s not really the effortlessly elegant woman she seems to be… &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For Thea, Angelos’s reappearance is disastrous! Dining with a viscount on the verge of proposing, the last thing she wishes to be reminded of is the street-smart, quick-tempered girl she once was. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A lucky encounter years ago with the gorgeous Greek tycoon enabled Thea to make something of her future. But Angelos can’t forget how she used him – and he’ll stop at nothing to bring her down. Even seduction…&lt;br /&gt;

===Excerpt===&lt;br /&gt;
'''''From the [http://software.libredigital.com/bookrdr/dp-live/BookBrowse.html?a=Tx7TzjhiUDFPmyn%2FGzKaqlSlTLdzniCAWIISkFyxv65g3UyBmRFeG2cTQfGejGOTq%2FucpBelkeV2wz%2FFpEmuiaZBztk1BuIeBIO7VVPi8ylehudI33D7sO2D7NBGn0oB&amp;amp;z=hmb inside cover] of [[Modern Romance|Mills &amp;amp; Boon Modern Romance]], August 2011, UK Edition:'''''&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dark, hard eyes looked down at her. Thea pulled back against the stone wall.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Shock. Panic. Fear ran through her. And—far more powerful than any of those—loathing. Black, virulent loathing.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Something moved in his eyes. Then he spoke. 'Still the street rat,' said Angelos Petrakos. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Her eyes narrowed like a cat's. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'Upstairs,' he said. His voice was terse. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She raised delicate eyebrows. 'Whatever for?' &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
'It's in your interest,' he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Nothing more. He didn't need it. And he knew she knew that. Oh, yes, he knew she knew, all right...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Loathing flashed in her eyes, but for all that she turned and walked towards the staircase. He let her go up first, let his eyes take in the graceful line of her body.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She was casually dressed, but the dress was cashmere, and the boots the finest soft leather. She wore the outfit with an elegance that might have been natural but which he knew was not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was all only an illusion. And now he would be stripping the illusion from her, exposing the lie.&lt;br /&gt;
