Book Description

Blurb

From the back cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #963, April 2010, UK Edition:

Claimed… Billionaire Alex Matthews’s sights are set on penniless ‘ice’ Princess Serina of Montevel. His job is to keep her brother under surveillance, but it’s Serina who has caught Alex’s eye!

Taken! Whisked to his secluded tropical retreat, Serina finds her outer shell of royal decorum crumbling at the power of Alex’s presence. Before the impoverished princess realises, she’s drowning in Alex’s glacial blue eyes and…waking up in his king-sized bed!

Deceived? She thinks Alex is her Prince Charming, but has he led her astray under false pretences…?

'A kiss,' he said. 'And I'm not asking, Serina--I'm taking what you've been silently promising me since we danced together at Gerd and Rosie's wedding.'

He drew her towards him. She put a hand on his chest, looking up into an intense, chiselled face.
