It amazed Ophelia that Lysander Metaxis--a Greek billionaire notorious for his harem of adoring women--wanted to marry her, a humble gardener with a crumbling old manor house and debts up to her ears.
But soon she realized Lysander didn’t want her--he wanted her property and her body. But marry him she would, because she had no choice if she wanted to keep what she cherished most. And disobedient she would be, because her new husband had no intention of loving her....
He had already locked her out of her beloved walled nursery and humiliated her by offering to settle her utility charges. Resistant she would remain, because surrender to a Metaxis carried too bitter a family cost.
Whisked away to his private Mediterranean retreat on Kastros, she discovered the arrogant tycoon expected quiet submission.
Bound by a marriage contract neither expected, they find themselves trapped under the same ancient roof.
