The Marriage Proposition

When Paige looked at Nick Destry she could hardly believe she was married to him!

A successful banker, Nick was confidently sexy—but ruthless. He'd wanted a seat on the board, and he'd married Paige to get one. Harrington Holdings needed an urgent injection of capital, leaving her little choice but to agree to his coolly dictated terms. She resolved that he would never buy her submission—if he expected a submissive partner, he was badly mistaken.

Paige decided to act as if their wedding was just a business proposition. But it was hard sharing Nick's bed. After seven stormy weeks she fled to the sun-drenched island of St Antoine, desperate to put ocean between them until a quiet divorce came through.

Paige refused to play the martyr to his arrogance, refusing to be the dutiful spouse he expected. She decided he couldn't have everything his own way—if he truly wanted her, he would have to prove it!

When a tropical hurricane traps them in the same hotel room, will Paige manage to keep her distance from the only man she has ever wanted?
