Descrip­tions

Pour fuir son passé, Aiden Terrell mène une vie dissolue. Afin de le remettre dans le droit chemin, son ami et associé, le détective Barrett Stanbridge, le charge d'une mission : protéger le fils d'un rajah qui vit à Londres, au côté de sa préceptrice. Cette dernière a des raisons de craindre pour la sécurité de l'enfant. A contrecoeur, Aiden s'installe sous leur toit. La cohabitation s'annonce mouvementée : le jeune Mohan est un tyran et Alexandra Radford prend tout de suite Aiden de haut. Il n'empêche qu'elle possède un charme fou, encore accentué par le mystère qui l'entoure...

To Aiden Terrell, Alexandra Radford is a captivating combination of British propriety and eastern exoticism. But this confirmed bachelor has sworn off love and instead has decided to assist at his friend's private investigation business. Now his job is to protect the exquisite Alexandra and her young pupil from a shadowy threat. But guarding himself against Miss Radford's charms will be another matter altogether...

Insufferable. Insolent. Intriguing. Mr. Terrell is all of these things and more-though Alex can't afford to care. If he weren't her last resort, she'd surely have dismissed him after that first smoldering glance-a glance that sent her heart racing with a desire she'd never known. However, when the threat of danger increases, and secrets from the past come to the fore, Alex's fierce resolve melts as she seeks warm comfort and delicious passion in Aiden's arms. And with each moment they share, Aiden is becoming less someone she needs than someone she wants. But what will happen when all secrets are revealed?

Londres, 1864. Terrell, un homme qui ne croit plus en l'amour, a pour mission de veiller sur Alexandra Radford, une jeune fille venue des Indes avec un garçon de 10 ans, fils de maharadjah.
