Generous remuneration."When Ricky had blandly jilted her in order to make a more advantageous marriage and had then had the nerve to invite her to the wedding, Tara was determined, for pride's sake, to go, but equally determined not to be an object of pity. So she had advertised for a bogus "fiance" to accompany her to the wedding - and in the devastingly handsome young Greek, Paul Dorkas, found exactly what she was looking for.It was only when Paul's stern older brother Leon, domineering and with the worst possible opinion of Englishwomen and their morals, got mixed up in it all that Tara realised what deep waters she was getting into!

And that could prove to be a dangerous assumption.

Kidnap Greek businessman Charon Drakos? The outrageous plan was basically weak Sarah Gilmore thought, but she felt obliged to help her girlfriend. As with so many well-laid plans, it backfired. It was Sarah who was kidnapped, and whisked off to Charon's grim, fortresslike home in a remote and primitive part of Greece. Her spirited resistance seemed only to amuse him. "Whether you like my kisses or not," he informed her arrogantly, "you're going to accept them. You are my wife, Sarah; and in Greece marriage is permanent."

Besides, he was practically a woman hater! But as the memory of her old love receded, Clair unwillingly found herself thinking of Shane!

Tied to Don, she loved Philippe... Jane was stunned when her husband wanted a divorce so he could marry the woman he really loved. Jane had to get away--had to think things out. The job in Mauritius was a godsend, but caring for the two small children brought her into contact with their temporary guardian, Philippe de Chameral. And suddenly Jane, too, realized there was more to love than what she and Don had had. But Philippe didn't love her, and Don suddenly wanted her back....

"Place your hand on a woman's heart and she's yours instantly," said the arrogant Greek Julius Spiridon, who was certainly devastating enough to know what he was talking about. But Gale Davis was not just any woman, she had been hurt and embittered after being cruelly let down by the man she loved, and had vowed never to let a man touch her heart again. She was absolutely determined to fight the attraction she so unwillingly felt for Julius; it was, after all, only physical attraction she felt for him, not real love, so it ought to be easy enough to control. Only it wasn't. Gradually Gale found herself being drawn into a situation she had never wanted but couldn't get out of. Was this man too going to break her heart?

Melanie had been very young and inexperienced when she agreed to marry Leandros Angeli, and it was inexperience, that had made her take fright at the last moment and break the engagement. All that was years ago and Leandros had faded into the past. But now he appeared again in the most disturbing way. Melanie s brother had robbed Leandros and he was demanding that, as the price of her brother s freedom, she go to Crete and work for him in his hotel until the debt was paid. In the days of ancient Crete, girls were taken there as sacrifices to the monstrous Minotaur. Now, in the present day, it seemed Melanie was to be sacrificed too - to a man who had been waiting seven years for his revenge.
