       Viktor’s kiss took Maddie by surprise. It shouldn’t have. Wasn’t it natural to kiss to seal an engagement?

      But the kiss did surprise her. And then it overwhelmed her, his lips coaxing a response that radiated throughout her body. They took possession of hers, insisting on the two things she’d said only that morning she wasn’t capable of.

      Submission and trust.

      But then, like with so many other things in her life, the rules did not apply to Viktor Beck.

      She found herself melting into him, no thoughts for self-preservation or holding anything back.

      And he accepted her surrender with a forceful masculine desire that belied any claim for a lack of passion between them.

      He devoured her mouth, his arms coming around her, his hands pressing her body flush with his.

      Maddie’s knees would have given out, but Vik’s hold on her was too tight.

      The kiss was Viktor Beck staking claim to the woman who promised to marry him and give him his dreams.

       RUTHLESS RUSSIANS

       Passion is in their blood

      As boys, they came from Russia to America to make their fortunes. Now formidable opponents in the boardroom, Viktor Beck and Maxwell Black are about to make the biggest acquisitions of their lives by marrying two of San Francisco’s most notorious heiresses! Beneath their suave American exteriors beat the passionate hearts of fearsome Cossack warriors—and their intended brides are about to give them the battle of their lives!

      In AN HEIRESS FOR HIS EMPIRE October 2014

      A tabloid sex scandal means Viktor Beck can put his plan in motion and marry heiress Madison Archer—the key to taking over her father’s business and building his empire. But even this ruthless Russian is not prepared for his wild bride to be a virgin!

      In A VIRGIN FOR HIS PRIZE November 2014

      Formidable CEO Maxwell Black is about to make his ultimate acquisition— socialite Romi Grayson! She has something he wants, and his need for control—in all areas—means he won’t rest until his ring is on her finger and the innocent Romi is warm and willing in his bed!

      For Judy Flohr, a very special reader who I have long considered an honest friend. It’s sort of amazing to me that you’ve been reading and sharing your love of my books since the very first one, THE GREEK TYCOON’S ULTIMATUM, back in 2003. When I’m doubting myself, or the story, I know I can re-read your emails or online reader reviews and remember why I write and that maybe I’m not so bad at this after all.

      THANK YOU!!!

      Hugs and blessings, Lucy

      MADISON ARCHER SET HER morning coffee down, hot liquid spilling over the rim, as she read her Google alerts with growing horror.

      Madcap Madison Looking for New Master?

      Archer Heiress into Heavy Kink

      San Francisco Bad Boy Dumps Very Bad Girl

      The articles made lurid claims about a lifestyle and relationship between Maddie and Perry Timwater. A completely nonexistent relationship.

      The fact that Perry was the source caused the coffee to sour in Maddie’s stomach.

      His supposed exposé of their fictitious relationship claimed she was a submissive with a serious pain fetish and need for multiple partners. She gritted her teeth on the urge to swear as she read it was her inability to remain faithful that forced Perry to end things between them.

      Maddie wouldn’t mind ending Perry right that minute. Betrayal choked her.

      How could he have done this?

      He was her friend.

      They’d met their freshman year at university. He’d made her laugh when she’d thought nothing could. Not after her epic fail trying to get Viktor Beck’s attention. She’d started university
