The Billionaire's Scandalous Marriage

Sydney heiress Charlotte Ramsey was due to marry Mark Freedman, but her father and brother had taken an instant dislike to him. Mark had grudgingly been accepted into Sydney society making her uncomfortable. When her brother Peter, brings home an English friend she’s even more confused when a frisson of excitement stirred.

Damien Wynter was interested in Charlotte; despite the fact she was engaged. He was sure she was the partner he’d been looking for, and after meeting Mark the one he was determined to get. Torn between her feelings for family and what she felt for her fiancée, Charlotte learns Mark is more interested in her money and lifestyle than her, when he writes ‘under duress’ on the pre-nuptial agreement.

Damien pursues her, with one goal in mind, to make her his in bed and out. When Charlotte resists, her brother explains how stubborn she can be. Never patient, he has to learn what she most desires, but will the scandal that is sure to break make her run away or toward Damien?

THE BILLIONAIRE’S SCANDALOUS MARRIAGE has some interesting conflicts within the pages. Damien is a dominant man, who finds any challenge a must win situation, but the beautiful heroine gives him a few restless nights. The other characters are also very interesting, and the readers will empathize with them. Start with a dominant father, with a wife and mother who keeps in the background. Add a gold digging fiancée, who plays his cards close to his chest and the challenging brother, yet to find love all adds up to an interesting story.

The dialogue was interesting and helped to drive the story along well. Any wedding planners reading this tale would probably have torn their hair out, but it upped the tension brilliantly. Damien wants her lock stock and barrel, but she must also want him, making the pressure climb. Charlotte wonders about her sanity, when even his voice makes her heart flutter. Stunning sensuality as even the art of kissing exploded sexual possessiveness and excitement, in this cleverly crafted tale.
