Claiming His Christmas Consequence. Michelle Smart

      

      “You have one new message...”

      “Know this, Catalina. You might be a princess, you might be wearing my ring, you might have taken 200,000 euros of my money...but you are carrying my child, and I will find you.”

      Catalina had never stepped out of line, until one stolen Christmas night of irresistible passion with French billionaire Nathanial Giroud changed her life forever.

      Now, hidden in the Pyrenees, Catalina is determined to protect the small life growing within her from the anguish of her own royal upbringing. Even if she has to defy the husband she so desperately craves!

      ‘I am staying in the palace tonight, in the same wing as you,’ Nathaniel said quietly, his breath blowing against the sensitive lobe of Catalina’s ear.

      ‘How…?’ It was a fight to breathe, let alone talk. ‘How do you know which wing I’m in?’

      ‘Because I made it my business to know.’ He inhaled deeply and she knew it was her scent he breathed in so greedily.

      He kept his hold on her hand as he stepped back and gazed down at her.

      He had a magnetism she had felt from their first introduction all those years ago.

      He was the only man she had ever wondered about…

      ‘At one o’clock I will come to your door.’ He pressed a kiss to her knuckles. ‘I know your companion has the adjoining room, so I will not knock. I will be there, but I will leave our fate in your hands. If you don’t open it I will go back to my room and you can pretend I was never there. But before you make that decision of whether or not to open the door ask yourself this—when was the last time you did something solely for yourself that wasn’t bound up in duty? You’re a princess, Catalina, but tonight I can teach you how to be a woman too.’

One Night With Consequences

      When one night...leads to pregnancy!

      When succumbing to a night of unbridled desire it’s impossible to think past the morning after!

      But, with the sheets barely settled, that little blue line appears on the pregnancy test and it doesn’t take long to realise that one night of white-hot passion has turned into a lifetime of consequences!

      Only one question remains:

      How do you tell a man you’ve just met that you’re about to share more than just his bed?
