Synopsis

Should she accept Rick's proposal? "Marry me," Rick had said, "and your home will be safe." That was the only way Marissa could stop her ancestral home, Grafton Court, from being plundered. It now belonged to dynamic American self-made millionaire Rick Jablonski, whose plans for it - a hotel or leisure park - left Marissa devastated. But Marissa wasn't sure that if she married Rick, she could keep her side of the bargain. Being the perfect hostess for Rick's business activities was one thing - but could she be his wife?
