Control hangs by a thread for the Spanish duke in this sizzling forbidden romance by Jackie Ashenden! Marry her enemy or lose everything… When Alice first met Spanish duke Sebastián Castellano, the fiery attraction between them was instant, forbidden and unequivocally ignored—he was her brother-in-law. Then Alice’s husband and sister were killed in a car accident, leaving behind Alice’s four-year-old nephew, Diego…and the shocking revelation that Sebastián was not his father. For Sebastián, Diego is his son, no matter the bloodline. The Castellano hacienda is their home, and if Alice insists on being part of their life, it’ll have to become hers too. Her choice is simple. Leave…or stay—as his wife! From Harlequin Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.
Author
Jackie has been writing fiction since she was eleven years old. Mild mannered fantasy/SF/pseudo-literary writer by day, obsessive romance writer by night, she used to balance her writing with the more serious job of librarianship until a chance meeting with another romance writer prompted her to throw off the shackles of her day job and devote herself to the true love of her heart – writing romance. She particularly likes to write dark, emotional stories with alpha heroes who've just got the world to their liking only to have it blown wide apart by their kick-ass heroines. She lives in Auckland, New Zealand with her husband, the inimitable Dr Jax, two kids, two cats and some guppies (possibly dead guppies by the time you read this). When she's not torturing alpha males and their stroppy heroines, she can be found drinking chocolate martinis, reading anything she can lay her hands on, posting random crap on her blog, or being forced to go mountain biking with her husband.
