About the book
When Lisa faced Alex Andreas across his desk she trembled. Never had she met a man who exuded such ruthless power. He had the reputation of always getting what he wanted, and he wanted the Greek island Lisa had inherited from her dead husband and which she needed as a retreat from the world that had treated her so harshly. She was determined to fight Alex for it, until he took her to see it and she realised there were problems involved. But alone on the island with Alex, Lisa discovered there was something else he wanted. Despite her reputation, he wanted her.
