Dark Desiring

the long version

His plan had worked--she couldn't leave! Helen Coulthard arrived in Sicily prepared for a work-filled two weeks. It was only when her "boss" deposited her at Carlo Manzitti's villa that she realized her plight. Carlo Manzitti--the man who'd swept her off her feet two years ago, the man she'd agreed to marry. Until she'd learned the real reason behind his pursuit of her.... Vengeance for the wrong her father had done him. And it appeared there was no time limit on the pain he could cause her--no time limit on her foolish love.
