She owes him a wedding night...
He’ll collect it in Greece!
It’s heart-stopping for architect Helena to learn that her mystery client is Theo Nikolaidis—her ex-fiancé! Unwilling to sacrifice her hard-fought independence, she ended their engagement, but memories of their passion were harder to leave behind...
Theo has one goal: seeking vengeance on his runaway bride! Yet their return to the Greek island they had planned to call home complicates everything. Theo can’t escape their past...or the intense connection that spectacularly reignites! Will this tycoon be tempted to rewrite the rules of his revenge?
MICHELLE SMART’s love affair with books started when she was a baby and would cuddle them in her cot. A voracious reader of all genres, she found her love of romance established when she stumbled across her first Mills & Boon book at the age of twelve. She’s been reading them—and writing them—ever since. Michelle lives in Northamptonshire, England, with her husband and two young Smarties.

Helena was as ready and prepared as she could be. It was time to make her first major pitch to a client. The blueprints she’d spent a month toiling over were ready to be unveiled to the mystery client who’d driven them all to distraction.
