Book description
Rumour says the powerful Nicolai DeMarco can command the heavens,
that the beasts below do his bidding... and that he is doomed to
destroy the woman he takes as wife. It is whispered he's not wholly
human - as untamed as his tawny mane and slashing amber eyes.
Impoverished aristocrat Isabella Vernaducci would defy death itself
to rescue her imprisoned brother. She'll even brave the haunted,
accursed lair of the lion - the menacing palace of legendary, lethal
Don Nicolai DeMarco.
Then Isabella meets a man whose growl is velvet, purring heat, and
whose eyes hold dark, all-consuming desire. And when the don
commands her to become his bride, she goes willingly into his muscled
arms, praying she'll save his tortured soul... and not sacrifice her life.
