About this ebook

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 baby 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 Presents: Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.

Ratings and reviews

Lots of steamy fun with a strong family focus Sebastian and Alice share a connection - his son is her nephew, and all she has left of her sister Emily, who was Sebastian's wife. Only the connection doesn't stop there - the child's biological father was Alice's husband, Edward, who died along with Emily when their car crashed. The complex custody issue has only one solution that Sebastian will accept - marriage to Alice wherein they raise the child together. Alice is naturally resistant to Sebastian's demanding and controlling manner, but she can't deny her attraction to him, either. Their marriage of convenience is where it starts, but Alice refuses to accept anything less than a true partnership, which forces Sebastian to find a way to heal from his own childhood trauma. I really enjoyed this entire story, from the sizzling chemistry to the deeply emotional connection. The HEA is followed by an extraordinary epilogue which was just the icing on the cake. Highly recommended for all romance readers. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.
