Theo Atrides is wealthy, powerful and sucessful.
An impoverished London actress, she only agreed to pose as his cousin Demos’s lover to help the gentle heir evade an arranged society betrothal. Leandra has no intention of being his next conquest. She refuses to trade her dignity for an Atrides fortune.
Drugged and spirited away across the Mediterranean to his secluded villa, she awakens amidst golden sands and olive groves. When Theo lands by helicopter and offers a hundred-thousand-pound cheque to buy her off, Lea defiantly shreds the paper into tiny pieces.
Lea rejects every lavish bribe he puts in her path. But when they are forced to spend a week together on his private island, Theo decides to do whatever it takes to make Lea surrender.
Faced with his relentless plan of seduction, she finds the challenge of resisting the gorgeous Greek playboy too much to bear….
Mills & Boon novels were Julia James’ first “grown up” books she read as a teenager, and she's been reading them ever since. She adores the Mediterranean and the English countryside in all its seasons, and is fascinated by all things historical, from castles to cottages. In between writing she enjoys walking, gardening, needlework and baking “extremely gooey chocolate cakes” and trying to stay fit! Julia lives in England with her family.
