Book Description

Blurb

From the back cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #1067, April 2011, UK Edition:

He’s the last man in the world she would ever marry!

To Lizzy Sharp, businessman Louis Jumeau is a real-life Mr Darcy: insufferably proud, infuriatingly prejudiced…and impossibly good-looking!

Louis knows exactly what gold-digging families like the Sharps are after – his money. But the universally acknowledged truth is that this billionaire needs a wife.

Independent Lizzy might not seem the perfect candidate, but her curves are proving powerfully tempting. And the arrogant and well-practised Louis is sure all it will take to wed – and bed! – her is a little seductive persuasion…

THE POWERFUL AND THE PURE
When Beauty tames the brooding Beast…

Excerpt

From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #1067, April 2011, UK Edition:

'You don't believe in love, do you?' she asked, and Louis laughed, raking his fingers through his hair.

'I believe in lust, and I believe in marriage.'

'You mean marriage based on...what? How can you base a marriage on lust? Lust doesn't last.'

'But it's an enjoyable starting point, don't you agree? Not that I've given much thought to marriage one way or the other.'

Lizzy shifted awkwardly. She realised that her legs were brushing against his, and she primly angled her body away from him. When their eyes met, she could see at a glance that he had noted the shift and was amused by it. 'And what happens when the lust fades away?'

'Oh, that's why it's so important to be practical when it comes to getting married. A decent business arrangement doesn't allow for any nasty surprises. There's no such thing as the perfect marriage, but there is such a thing as the perfect criteria for a wife.'

The perfect criteria. A shard of pain stabbed her. When it came to the perfect criteria, she was nowhere on the scale.
