Once A Moretti Wife. Michelle Smart

      

      “I love having you at my mercy... And you love it, too.”

      The only desire billionaire Stefano Moretti has for his estranged wife, Anna, is revenge—she humiliatingly left him weeks ago. So when Anna returns to his life, with no memory of their tempestuous marriage, he’s certain fate has dealt him a winning hand.

      Stefano’s plan is twofold: a private seduction that will reawaken Anna to their red-hot attraction, followed by a public humiliation to match the one she landed on him. Until Stefano realizes there’s something he wants even more than vengeance—Anna, back in his bed, for good!

      ‘It’s good to see you up.’ Stefano hooked an arm around Anna’s waist, dropped a kiss on the nape of her neck and inhaled her delicious soft floral scent.

      Turning his back on her in the early hours of the night had been hard, but necessary. He’d sensed her desire simmering beneath her rigid surface and known that with only a little persuasion on his part she would be his for the taking. But it was too soon. When he seduced her anew he wanted his wife to be a tinderbox of desire for him. He wanted her to beg for his possession. He wanted her helpless to do anything but melt in his arms. He wanted her fully fit and knowing exactly what she was doing.

      The more heightened her emotions and her desire for him, the greater the low that would follow when he exacted his revenge.

      MICHELLE SMART’s love affair with books started when she was a baby, when she would cuddle them in her cot. A voracious reader of all genres, she found her love of romance established when she stumbled across her first Mills & Boon book at the age of twelve. She’s been reading—and writing them—ever since. Michelle lives in Northamptonshire with her husband, and two young Smarties.

      HOW MUCH HAD she drunk?

      Anna Robson clutched her head, which pounded as if the force of a hundred hammers were battering it.

      There was a lump there. She prodded it cautiously and winced. Had she hit her head?
