Summary

A woman weds a stranger as part of a business deal but falls for her sexy, scarred husband in this romance from a New York Times–bestselling author. 
 
Marc was dangerous to her in the way that only a strong, sexy male could be to a woman. Even knowing that, she’d agreed to marry him at her father’s request. 
 
Still, hope blossomed in Hira’s heart. Perhaps she’d married a man with whom it might just be worth building a life. Her mother had worried that he was scarred, but the lines on his face did nothing to lessen his raw masculine appeal. If anything, they gave him an even more dangerous male air, enticing the feminine core of her to thoughts that shocked her. 
 
What did a man’s face matter anyway? She had no use for handsome men. 
 
But for a man with a heart? 
 
For such a man, she might risk everything.
Available since: 03/24/2014.
