      Passion brought them together. Will betrayal tear them apart?

      When Alesha Robinson ended her torrid affair with Derrick Chandler, she gave up the love of her life. Now fate’s giving them a second chance. But when Alesha asks Derrick to save her brother, she never dreams what the scorned multimillionaire will demand in exchange: becoming his wife—in name only.

      Even after Alesha shattered his trust, Derrick never stopped loving her. His strings-attached proposition was supposed to be strictly business: revenge for her cruel betrayal as he rebuilds his public image. Until desire reignites—hotter than ever.

      As the ex-lovers give in to their passion, a marriage of convenience is about to become inconvenient. And Derrick realizes just how far he’ll go to keep Alesha in his bed, in his arms, in his heart—forever.

      “You’ll have to do better than this, or you won’t convince anyone that you’re madly in love with me.”

      He lowered his head toward hers.

      She continued to struggle in vain. His lips were mere inches from hers, and one hand remained around her waist, while the other moved to her hair. He released her silky tresses from their confining clasp, allowing the shoulder-length tendrils to slide over his fingers as he pulled her resisting mouth toward his. As he had known it would, her hair felt like silk against his fingers. His appreciative eyes swept her distraught face thoroughly.

      “I prefer your hair loose, remember?”

      “Mr. Ashton, I don’t care what you prefer.”

      “Oh, but you will care.” Her voice caught in her throat at his softly voiced promise. “Call me Derrick.”

      “No.” She strained against his ironclad embrace.

      “You’ll say my name on moans of passion in just a few seconds.”

      “Never.”

      She knew her denial lacked believability because her voice was breathless and a strange feeling began forming in her suddenly churning stomach.

      “We’ll see.”

      Before she could acidly respond, determined lips closed over hers in a strong caress.

      Dear Reader,

      I love it when two destined souls meet and fall in love—even if the road to happily-ever-after is a little rocky. After all, the journey is as important as the destination.

      Meet Derrick Ashton, an alpha male who’s handsome, sensual, successful—and just a tad vindictive.

      Alesha Robinson is beautiful, loyal and selfless and has been given a second chance at happiness, if she can undo the monumental damage her well-intentioned white lies has created.

      Soon she’ll be a new bride, but can she convince Derrick to give her time to make the transition from his wife on paper to his wife in the bedroom? After all, she is an inexperienced virgin, but he won’t believe that—especially since she’s given him every reason to think just the opposite is true!

      Buckle your seat belts!

      Look for my next book, Our First Dance, in July 2012.
