About the book
Could Cara's love cancel the debt? "Marry me, and your father can have twelve months more on his loan." Vince Steiner's insolent, faintly sensuous smile told Cara she was as much an object of desire to the South African construction magnate as she was the daughter of the man he despised. Cara knew nothing of her father's dealings with the Steiner family. She only knew that her new husband's heart seemed to have little room for love. Yet somewhere behind Vince's harsh unrelenting exterior, Cara glimpsed a man who might someday need more than a pawn in a deadly game of revenge.
