      She opened her eyes and turned her head, still nestled on the leather headrest, to face Sebastian, not bothering to hide her suspicion. ‘You suddenly became Santa Claus?’

      ‘No, I suddenly became in need of a wife.’

      ‘I’ve factored that in,’ he retorted with unimpaired cool. ‘In public we would act the happy, loved-up couple.’

      A hissing sound left her lips. ‘Marriage. You’re actually talking about marriage—it’s not a sick joke?’
