The Greek's Marriage Bargain

The Greek's Marriage Bargain
Sharon Kendrik

Renewing their vows?

Xenon Kanellis is not a man who fails, and certainly not a man who gets divorced. Now with the perfect opportunity to get his wife back where she belongs—on his arm and in his bed—his immaculate record will be restored.

Lexi Kanellis needs her estranged husband’s help…even if that means playing the good Greek wife for a few more weeks. The island sun is no match for the reignited heat between them, but no amount of passion can erase the memory of what tore them apart.…

“I’m waiting, Lex,” came the sound of his impatient voice in her ear.

“You know that I don’t want to do it,” she said. “And I’m asking you to reconsider.”

“Ochi. Can’t be done. You will do what I want you to do.”

“You’re a ruthless man, Xenon Kanellis.”

“Insult me all you like,” he said. “But my heart will not be swayed by your pleas.”

“You have no heart!”

“Then waste no more of my time with your futile protestations. Give me your answer, Lex—is it yes or no?”

There was a pause while she tried to fight it, but she realized she had no choice. “Yes,” she breathed reluctantly.

“Good.”

Dear Reader (#u9476b05b-4908-5eca-b3aa-017cbb6e5822),

One hundred. Doesn’t matter how many times I say it, I still can’t believe that’s how many books I’ve written. It’s a fabulous feeling but more fabulous still is the news that Mills & Boon are issuing every single one of my backlist as digital titles. Wow. I can’t wait to share all my stories with you - which are as vivid to me now as when I wrote them.

There’s BOUGHT FOR HER HUSBAND, with its outrageously macho Greek hero and A SCANDAL, A SECRET AND A BABY featuring a very sexy Tuscan. THE SHEIKH’S HEIR proved so popular with readers that it spent two weeks on the USA Today charts and…well, I could go on, but I’ll leave you to discover them for yourselves.

I remember the first line of my very first book: “So you’ve come to Australia looking for a husband?” Actually, the heroine had gone to Australia to escape men, but guess what? She found a husband all the same! The man who inspired that book rang me up recently and when I told him I was beginning my 100

story and couldn’t decide what to write, he said, “Why don’t you go back to where it all started?”

So I did. And that’s how A ROYAL VOW OF CONVENIENCE was born. It opens in beautiful Queensland and moves to England and New York. It’s about a runaway princess and the enigmatic billionaire who is infuriated by her, yet who winds up rescuing her. But then, she goes and rescues him… Wouldn’t you know it?

I’ll end by saying how very grateful I am to have a career I love, and to thank each and every one of you who has supported me along the way. You really are very dear readers.

Love,
