The Italian’s marriage bargain
With her livelihood hanging in the balance, single mum and restaurateur Victoria Heart has one choice – a shocking proposal from arrogant hotelier Antonio Cavelli: he’ll secure her future, but take her freedom!
Antonio has no time nor want for love, but it is expected he will marry and produce children. A convenient wife would suit him perfectly – especially one with a ready-made heir! But Victoria’s body responds so willingly to his slightest touch he’s not sure how long their arrangement will stay strictly business!
