Harlequin Desire
A princess and a Southern billionaire are expecting twins! Only from USA TODAY bestselling author Catherine Mann!
His focus is on his family's football dynasty. Louisiana billionaire Gervais Reynaud has no time for romance. But he can't say no to a tryst with Erika Mitras. True, she's a princess, but in no way prim…or proper. Their time together is unbelievable…and all too short.
When Erika said goodbye, she meant it. But now she must tell Gervais the truth. He's about to be a father…to royal twins. After leaving her overbearing family, Erika wants nothing from Gervais. But the tempting tycoon just may charm her into a future she desires all too much.
His dark eyes heated her with
memories as he strode toward her. His long legs ate the ground in
giant slices, his khakis and sports jacket declaring him in the
middle of a work day. He stopped in front of her, his broad shoulders
blocking the sun and casting his handsome face in shadows. But she
didn’t have to see to know his jaw would be peppered with the
stubble that seemed to grow in seconds after he shaved. Her fingers –
her body – remembered the texture of that rasp well.
Her breath caught somewhere in her
chest.
He folded his arms over his chest,
just under the Hurricanes logo stitched on the front of his jacket.
“Welcome to the States, Erika. No one mentioned your intention to
visit. I thought you don’t like sports.”
“And yet, here I am.” And in
need of privacy out of the bright Louisiana sun and the even brighter
curious eyes of his team and staff. She needed space and courage to
tell him why she’d made this unexpected journey across the Atlantic
to this muggy bayou state. “This is not an official royal visit.”
“And you’re not in uniform.”
His eyes glided over her wrap around dress.
“I’m out of the service now.”
About to return to school to be a nurse, the career field she’d
hoped to pursue in the military but they would not allow her such an
in-the-field position, instead preferring to dress her up and trot
her around as a figure-head translator. “I am here for a conference
on homeopathic herbs and scents.” A part of her passion in the
nursing field, and a totally made up excuse for being here today.
“Are you here to share specially
scented deodorant to my players? Because they could certainly use
it.” His mouth tipped with a smile.
“Are you interested in such a
line?” Still jet-lagged from the transatlantic flight, she was
ill-prepared to exchange pleasantries.
“Is that why you are here? For
business?”
She could not just banter with him.
She simply could not. “Please, can we go somewhere private to
talk?”
He searched her eyes with for a
long moment before gesturing over his shoulder. “I’m in the
middle of a meeting with sponsors. How about supper?”
“I am not here for seduction,”
she stated bluntly.
“Okay.” His eye brows shot
upward. “I thought I asked you to join me for gumbo, not sex. But
now that we’re talking about sex--”
“We are not.” She cut him
short. “Finish your meeting if you must, but I need to speak with
you as soon as possible. Privately. Unless you want your personal
business and mine overheard by all of your team straining to listen.”
She definitely was not ready for
them to hear she was pregnant with the heir to the Reynaud family
dynasty.
