Book excerpt: The Spanish Billionaire's Christmas Bride Wealthy, powerful Cristiano Cordova is determined his late cousin's child will be raised by the Cordova family not by some glamorous gold digger! But he's shocked to find Dominique Sanderson to be a devoted mother, living in an old apartment. Despite her delicate appearance, she defies Cristiano which fuels his desire. So he'll take Dominique and the baby back to Spain and by Christmas he will make her his bride! The Lost Wife Ailsa is not ready to see Jake Larsen's unforgettable features again! But now, there is a cruel scar that sears her estranged husband's face which somehow enhances his handsome looks and reminds Ailsa of the sorrow that separates them... Jake had thought he'd be seeing Ailsa for a few minutes – not spending days snowbound in her house with her. But the longer he stays, the more the wife he once lost becomes a woman he's determined to win again. His Live–In Mistress Adrian Jacobs needs a live–in housekeeper. But pretty, cheerful Liadan Willow is not what he has in mind. She's far too young and lovely to be at his beck and call...and to put up with his dark, brooding moments. Liadan finds her new boss intimidating. But does the heat in his eyes mean he wants her in his bed – or in his life?
