Book Description

Blurb

From the back cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #911, October 2009, UK Edition:

The debt

Ionanthe will leave her freedom at the castle doors. The ancient laws of this kingdom demand an eye for an eye – and she must pay the price for her sister’s mistake.

The payment

Recently crowned Prince Max plans to bring change to his country, but only after his beautiful new bride has arrived – as payment for the debt he is owed…

The price

A ruthless ruler and his virgin queen. Trembling with the fragility of new spring buds, Ionanthe will go to her husband: she was given as penance, but he’ll take her for pleasure!

Excerpt 1

From the inside cover of Mills & Boon Modern Romance #911, October 2009, UK Edition:

If she was trembling with the fragility of new spring buds in the wind then it was because of her shock.

If she felt weak, and her heart was pounding with dangerous speed, then it was because of the weight of her gown. If she couldn't move then it was because of the arms that imprisoned her.

It was because her heart was racing so fast that his own had started to pound heavily, Max told himself. It was because the walls either side of the steps enclosed them that he was so conscious of the scent of her hair and her skin. It was because he was a man and she was a woman that his body was flooded with an unwanted surge of physical arousal that had him tightening his hold on her.

Extreme danger and extreme desire went hand in hand, and produced between them an extreme pleasure that was an almost unbearable delight. A delight that was merely a foretaste of what the night that lay before them would hold.
