SHE KNEW WHAT SHE WANTED
Justine Hawkes had fallen in--and out--of love so often her desperate family sent her to France to escape the scandal of her latest broken engagement. And the green-eyed American no longer trusted her own capricious heart... until she saw the impossibly handsome stranger galloping along the deserted beach at sunrise. Suddenly she spent every waking hour daydreaming about his piercing ebony eyes and teasing smile; her nights were filled with fantasies of intimate caresses and heart-stopping kisses. The spirited blonde knew she had finally met her match... and she could think of only one way to ensure he'd be hers forever...

HE TOOK WHAT SHE OFFERED
Nicholas Jones was stunned to find a mysterious seductress in his bed. He'd been pursued before, but never so brazenly. And, though the vixen insisted he keep the room in total darkness, he could tell she was a beauty. He usually had little patience with the games females played--most women were cold-blooded flirts like that renowned heartbreaker, Justine Hawks. But this nymph in his arms was a temptation he could not ignore. So he took what she so enticingly offered, reveling in the exquisite curves of her silken flesh, losing himself in her cries of ecstasy. And before their night of passion was over, he knew they'd gone beyond love, beyond desire, BEYOND SURRENDER
