Shotgun Wedding — Charlotte Lamb

"I must have an heir."

Juliet Newcome stared at Simeon blankly, then her mind reeled with appalled realization--he wanted her to bear his child.

She'd been forced to marry Simeon Gerard when she was just seventeen, but had fled after their disastrous wedding night. It had taken her years, but she'd finally put the whole episode behind her--she should have known she couldn't escape forever.

Now Simeon had found her--and he was asking for the impossible. He needed an heir--he claimed it was the only way he'd inherit the estate. But how could she bring a child into the world when its parents didn't love each other--or did they?

Hero: Simeon Gerard
Heroine: Juliet Newcome
