An illicit encounter with the Spaniard...
Heiress Elin Saunderson is instantly seduced by mysterious stranger Cortez. But after their sinful night together she’s left alone...and pregnant! A year later, she learns that Cortez is the rightful successor to her adoptive father’s fortune, and penniless Elin finds herself at risk of losing everything—including her son!
Cortez Ramos is set on claiming the secret Elin kept from him—but Elin proves as protective a mother as she is a torturous temptation. His solution: demand a marriage of convenience, which will legitimize his heir and return Elin to his bed!
‘Ralph stated in his will that he wished for you to marry and provide your son with a father. Are you in contact with your child’s father, and do you intend to marry him in order to claim your inheritance?’
Cortez did not know why he had asked her when he really wasn’t interested in Elin’s private life. But he stared at her because he couldn’t help himself, and waited tensely for her answer.
He realised he was bracing himself for her to reply, but when she did he was unprepared for the shock wave that ripped through him.
‘You are my son’s father,’ she said, in the soft voice that had haunted him for the past year.
Jarek and Elin Saunderson had nothing until they were adopted into the high society of the Saunderson family.
Now, following the death of the parents they adored, they soon discover a maze of secrets which threaten to destroy their legacy—and lead them each to uncover unforeseen passions…

THE ROOM WAS SPINNING. Bright lights flashed in front of her eyes, forming colourful patterns as if she were looking through the lens of a kaleidoscope. Elin blinked and found she was staring up at the chandelier in the drawing room. She had never noticed before how the crystal prisms sparkled like diamonds.
