Forbidden Fruit

Giles Kent is the older brother of Malcolm, and where Malcolm was easygoing and charming, Giles is grim, forceful and single-minded. When Malcolm dies, Giles sets his sights on Malcolm's former fiancée, Leonie, and on the baby she is expecting. Leonie, who has no wish to accept anything from her late fiancé's family, finds herself facing a man whose wealth and influence give him an advantage she cannot easily match.

Marrying a man who seems to feel nothing but resentment toward her would be foolish, Leonie tells herself. Still, Giles's raw masculinity stirs a physical awareness in her that she would rather ignore. Sharing a home with him promises to be a constant source of tension, with every encounter carrying the threat of something dangerous.
