About this ebook

Marisa Somerville has changed.

Now a confident, groomed, successful businesswoman, she's nothing like the scared wife of an abusive husband that Rafe Peveril survived a plane crash with six years ago. Rebuilt from the ashes of her old life, she runs a stylish gift shop in seaside Tewaka, determined to protect her young son from the past.

She has a different name, but he'd know those siren-green eyes and lush lips anywhere. Yet she insists they've never met and Rafe wants to know why. She may claim the past is dead, but she cannot conceal the panic shadowing her gaze.

When a suspicious fire destroys her rented cottage, Rafe steps in to shelter her and little Keir at his sweeping coastal estate. He may offer refuge beneath the pohutukawa trees of Manuwai, but he demands the truth in return.

Behind the closed doors of his grand homestead, the dangerous intimacy they once shared in the storm reawakens with scorching force. She might deny knowing him, but she can't deny how she responds to his touch.…


  • Fake Engagement: When her dangerous past resurfaces, Rafe proposes a temporary betrothal to protect her and her son, setting strict boundaries that their fierce mutual desire immediately threatens to shatter.
  • Alpha Hero: Powerful and unapologetically protective, international tycoon Rafe Peveril refuses to let Marisa fight alone, placing his vast resources and family estate between her and harm.
  • Heroine in Jeopardy: Desperate to shield young Keir from her abusive ex-husband, Marisa risks everything on a daring past deception, only to find the greatest danger lies in surrendering her heart to Rafe.
  • Also by This Author: Trampa para una mujer, L’étincelle du désir and Resistiéndose a un millonario.
