Summary

Even with his traumatic past, Ethan built his walls and made a successful man of himself.

His present is a void, but all the world needs to know is that he's a powerful steel tycoon who has it all.

An unpredictable snowstorm changes everything. She’s stranded in Heathrow airport and he gives her a ride in his G650.

She’s all he ever wanted: a passionate, loving, beautiful woman. She gives him what he never had: love. She will be his forever.

One year ago, on Alistair daughter’s grave, he promised he would never bend to a woman’s will again.

Since then his days are filled with millionaire contracts and his nights are filled with sex. One new woman each night—sometimes two—to indulge his need for control and punishment. But when he meets her in a business meeting, in his f*cking bank, she confronts him, runs him over, and leaves him horny as f*ck.

She’s gorgeous, sexy, and has a strong will. One he will bend.

Once upon a time, Sophia had everything a woman could have ever wished for: a perfect marriage, a successful career, and a precious baby daughter. Until monsters killed her husband. To protect her daughter, she fled to London, where she lives torn between the love for a dead man and her desire to move on.

So, when Ethan, in all his powerful tycoon confidence and charm, insists on a relationship, she gives it a chance. But when she meets Alistair and gazes into his blazing green eyes, her world spins around.

Now, she doesn’t know what to do. Or whom to choose.

Walking to Wonderland

Barbara Cartland

Handsome, distinguished and decidedly dashing, Theo, the Duke of Eaglefield, has the world, and most of its women, at his feet. But he takes all this attention for granted and is becoming tired and bored by it all.
In fact his friend, Harry Hampton, tells him that he has no concept of the challenges and complexities faced by the ordinary man and that the people he encounters see only his riches and rank rather than the man himself.
Protesting that this is untrue, Theo accepts Harry's challenge to walk the fifty miles from Brighton to his house, Eagle Hall, in Berkshire incognito and mixing with commoners along the way. He stands to lose his finest pair of horses should he fail and so he sets forth, leaving behind the glamour of Brighton's Beau Monde.

Almost instantly he finds himself falling in love with this 'very young angel who has fallen out of Heaven by mistake' and he decides to take her on his journey on foot.
