      Three houses, three couples—three reasons for revenge

      The calm ambience of St. Fiacre’s Hill—where lavish homes provided a secure haven for the seriously rich—hid a mael-strom of feeling. Geraint Howell-Williams, Triss Alexander and Dominic Dashwood all thought they had a need to avenge—but the actions each set in motion gained a steam-roller life of their own, with entirely unexpected results.

      

      

      GETTING EVEN is the first book in Sharon Kendrick’s REVENGE IS SWEET trilogy. Look out for Triss’s story coming next month in KISS AND TELL, and Dominic’s story, SETTLING THE SCORE, is out in May.

      Dear Reader,

      One hundred. Doesn’t matter how many times I say it, I still can’t believe that’s how many books I’ve written. It’s a fabulous feeling but more fabulous still is the news that Mills & Boon are issuing every single one of my backlist as digital titles. Wow. I can’t wait to share all my stories with you - which are as vivid to me now as when I wrote them.

      There’s BOUGHT FOR HER HUSBAND, with its outrageously macho Greek hero and A SCANDAL, A SECRET AND A BABY featuring a very sexy Tuscan. THE SHEIKH’S HEIR proved so popular with readers that it spent two weeks on the USA Today charts and…well, I could go on, but I’ll leave you to discover them for yourselves.

      I remember the first line of my very first book: “So you’ve come to Australia looking for a husband?” Actually, the heroine had gone to Australia to escape men, but guess what? She found a husband all the same! The man who inspired that book rang me up recently and when I told him I was beginning my 100th story and couldn’t decide what to write, he said, “Why don’t you go back to where it all started?”

      So I did. And that’s how A ROYAL VOW OF CONVENIENCE was born. It opens in beautiful Queensland and moves to England and New York. It’s about a runaway princess and the enigmatic billionaire who is infuriated by her, yet who winds up rescuing her. But then, she goes and rescues him… Wouldn’t you know it?

      I’ll end by saying how very grateful I am to have a career I love, and to thank each and every one of you who has supported me along the way. You really are very dear readers.

      Love,

      Sharon xxx

      ‘PINCH me, quick! Who the hell is he?’

      ‘No idea—but just watch me find out!’

      Lola, who had been shamelessly listening in to this conversation, watched as the two women tottered across the clubhouse towards the object of their desire.

      And then her heart missed a beat. Or rather it missed several.

      Lola blinked as the man glanced up and looked at her. And just carried on looking.

      It was the classic, corny situation—the kind that Lola had read about in books and had never really believed could happen.

      Well, it was happening now, and to her! Eyes meeting across a crowded room and all the things that went with it whether you liked it or not—the heightened awareness and the not so subtle body language
