A Ring to Claim His Legacy
Imogen Fraser arrives on a luxury island to sample the kind of lifestyle she could only dream about. As a representative of a bespoke luxury holiday company, she needs to recommend such lavish destinations to her clients and sampling them first-hand gives her an opportunity to escape the reality of her life.
What she didn’t expect to find while sampling the luxury island resort, was to find a man who would complete the fantasy of her week-long escape from reality. Knowing she must return to that reality, Imogen didn’t want to know anything more than his first name. Marco is so far out of her league and believes she is a pampered socialite which only adds to the romantic escape of her time on the island.
Marco Silviano is the not only the owner of the island, but of a multimillion dollar global business of luxury hotels and resorts. With his father’s health failing, his family are pressuring him to marry and so he arrives on his island undercover to see first-hand how his guests are treated as well as have a timely escape from his family and the secrets being revealed.
Imogen adds Marco’s need to stay in the paradise escape he has created, but their final night together has lasting consequences. Almost five months later, Imogen is confronted with reality of Marco Silviano, the man whose baby she now carries.
Hired to Wear the Sheikh’s Ring
Every story starts with a small nugget of an idea and this one came from a friend, who mentioned that there were women who ran professional bridesmaid services. My friend’s words were ‘there is a story in there somewhere!’ Sure enough there was and Hired to Wear the Sheikh’s Ring is my story from that nugget of an idea.
Tiffany is desperate to help her sister whose husband has left her not only with a young daughter but debts that threaten the home they live in. Tiffany’s savings don’t come anywhere near covering the debt. Then she meets Jafar, at his best friend’s wedding where she has been the bridesmaid and he puts a deal to her that would mean her sister can live worry free.
Jafar needs a wife in order to remain the ruler of his kingdom, but has no intention of entering into the romantic side of a marriage, so when he discovers Tiffany and the business she runs, he strikes a deal with her to be his bride and remain in his kingdom for several months afterwards.
What neither of them expect is the passion which burns on their wedding night, brighter than the desert sun or that the marriage is now much more than just a deal.

Di Marcello’s Secret Son
Di Marcello’s Secret Son is the first in a trilogy, The Secret Billionaires, which Dani Collins, Jennifer Hayward and myself worked on to create powerful and sexy heroes who live life on the edge and take great pleasure in challenging one another.
Each book is about one of the three billionaires, all of whom go undercover as part of the ultimate challenge from their mutual friend, Sebastien. Whilst doing that challenge they meet or are reunited with the women who test them far more than the challenge itself.
Antonio Di Marcello finds himself back in Milan, working as a motor mechanic. At first he thinks the challenge is to mend bridges with his estranged parents, whom he hasn’t seen since he ended the ill-fated marriage he’d made out of honour and duty to his family.
Very quickly he discovers that Sadie Parker, the woman he had a passionate weekend affair with four years ago, is working at the same garage. Sure this is his challenge, he cannot reveal his true identity until the end of the two week challenge, by which time he discovers that their affair has a lasting legacy - his son and heir.
Sadie has lived in fear and hope of Antonio coming back into her life, but had never anticipated it would be in such a way. She is determined to protect her child from being hurt and rejected by his father but is totally unprepared for the sensual onslaught Antonio adopts in order to get what he wants and finds herself falling for him all over again.
I hope you enjoy Antonio and Sadie’s story and don’t forget to read Stavros and Calli’s story in Xenakis’s Convenient Bride by Dani Collins and Alejandro and Cecily’s story in Salazar’s One-Night Heir by Jennifer Hayward.
