Bought for business, captured for marriage!

It’s Christmas time in London, and unwittingly Grace is swirled into the sumptuous and scandalous world of Prince Maksim Rostov. When the unworldly secretary learns he took her innocence in exchange for a business deal, broken-hearted she flees.

But when Maksim discovers Grace’s pregnancy secret, the ruthless Russian drags her to his guarded mansion in snowy Moscow. There he’ll keep her as his captive bride and unwilling princess…

Excerpt

From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #906, October 2009, UK Edition:

"Come out with me tonight," he whispered against her cheek. "You cannot refuse me."

"I won't turn on him," she gasped, still trembling with the shock of desire. "Not for any price. You won't kiss a betrayal out of me."

"Stubborn and foolish," he repeated softly, rubbing his thumb lightly against her swollen lower lip. "Why do you resist me?"

Her heart pounded.

"Fair warning, Grace," he said quietly. "I will seduce you tonight."

Caught in his gaze, she couldn't breathe. Her heart felt about ready to explode from her chest.

"You're welcome to try," she managed, over the rapid pounding of her heart, "I will resist you."

He gave her a slow, seductive smile. "I would expect nothing less."
