About this ebook
Claire was trying to look after her baby sister alone.
Grief-stricken after her mother's sudden death, the penniless student faced mounting rent on a chilly London flat and relentless pressure from her aunt to surrender baby Melanie to strangers. She was on the verge of taking drastic action when she met Andreas Markopoulou, a sexy Greek tycoon—and the answer to her prayers.
Andreas offered to marry Claire and adopt Melanie. The ruthless billionaire proved willing to lavish every luxury on his impoverished guest, so long as she accepted a strictly temporary arrangement.
His adored grandmother longed to hold her great-grandchild before she died. Desperate to comfort the elderly matriarch at his Greek estate, he concocted a daring fiction about a past liaison to claim the child as his own.
It seemed Andreas would go to any lengths to grant his grandmother's wish, even if that meant deceiving everybody—including his new bride.

- Marriage of Convenience: To grant his ailing grandmother her dying wish, Andreas drapes Claire in antique 1920s lace and family diamonds for a lavish chapel ceremony. But the vow to keep separate bedrooms begins to fracture under an overwhelming, undeniable attraction.
- Forced Proximity: Her wrist sidelined in a plaster cast, Claire must rely on the Greek tycoon to fly her and the infant from London to his private estate. Living beneath his roof makes it impossible to ignore the dangerous warmth behind his arrogant exterior.
- For the Baby's Sake: Determined to protect little Melanie from being given away, Claire endures the suspicious glare of Andreas’s glamorous widowed sister-in-law. When Desmona drops venomous hints about his true motives, Claire is forced to wonder what else her new husband is hiding.
- Also by This Author: After Their Vows, La novia olvidada and Le fiancé d'une autre.
