Abducted by a prince

the long version

Forced into a life of drudgery to repay her late father's debts, Ellie Stratham devises an escape plan that is thwarted by a mysterious stranger who kidnaps her and holds her hostage in a remote castle during a wild winter storm. "Ellie Stratham gave up her childhood dreams of a fairy tale romance long ago. To repay her late father's debts, she's forced to serve her spoiled cousin, Lady Beatrice. But Ellie has devised a secret plan to escape her life as a drudge. A plan that is thrown into jeopardy when she's abducted by a mysterious stranger. A notorious seducer of women and a scoundrel to boot Damien Burke has earned his nickname as the Demon Prince. But his plot to kidnap Lady Beatrice to make her brother return a priceless heirloom backfires and he ends up with their penniless cousin Ellie as his hostage. By the time Damien realizes his mistake, he and his fiery-willed captive are trapped in a remote castle during a wild winter storm. And he soon finds that the true hostage may be his own heart."--Page 4 of cover.
