Sold to the ruthless tycoon!
Innocent socialite Marnie Kenington was devastated when her parents forced her to spurn Nikos Kyriazis. She’s never forgotten him, nor his raw sensuality. So years later, when Nikos insists on a meeting, Marnie’s heart leaps...until Nikos strikes a cold, hard deal. Her family is on the verge of bankruptcy and he will rescue them—if she becomes his wife!
Marnie’s rejection drove self-made billionaire Nikos to unimaginable success. Now, he’ll take his revenge. Marnie’s poise is legendary, but he knows in the bedroom he can take her apart, piece by sensual piece...
‘Your father forbade you from seeing me and, like a good little Lady Heiress, you jumped when he clicked his fingers.’
‘Don’t call me that!’ Marnie said distractedly, hating the tabloid press’s moniker for her.
It wasn’t that it was cruelly meant, only that it mistook her natural reserve for something far more grandiose: snobbery. Pretension. Airs and graces. The kind of aristocratic aspirations that Marnie had never fallen in line with despite the value her parents put on them. The values that had been at the root of their disapproval of Nikos.
‘So this is revenge?’ she murmured, her eyes clashing fiercely with his. Pain lanced through her.
‘Yes.’
‘A dish best served cold?’ She shook her head sadly, dislodging his hand. ‘You’ve waited six years for this.’
‘Yes.’ Nikos brought his body closer, crushing her with his strong thighs, his broad chest. ‘But there will be nothing cold about our marriage.’
CLARE CONNELLY was raised in small-town Australia amongst a family of avid readers. She spent much of her childhood up a tree, Mills & Boon book in hand. Clare is married to her own real-life hero, and they live in a bungalow near the sea with their two children. She is frequently to be found staring into space—a sure-fire sign that she is in the world of her characters. She has a penchant for French food and ice-cold champagne, and Mills & Boon continue to be her favourite ever books. Writing for Modern Romance is a long-held dream. Clare can be contacted via clareconnelly.com or through her Facebook page.
This is Clare’s stunning debut for Mills & Boon Modern Romance—we hope you enjoy it!

HIS CAR CHEWED up the miles easily, almost as though the Ferrari sensed his impatience.
He exited the M25, the call he’d received that morning heavy on his mind.
‘He’s broke, Nik. Not just personally, but his business, too. No more assets to mortgage. Banks are too cautious, anyway. The whole family fortune is going to go down the drain. He’s about to lose it all.’
Nikos should have felt overjoyed. There was something about chickens coming home to roost that ought to have brought him amusement. But it hadn’t.
Seeing Arthur Kenington suffer had never been his goal.
Using the man’s plight to avenge the past, though... That idea held infinite appeal.
For six years he’d carried the other man’s actions in his chest. Oh, Arthur Kenington wasn’t the first elitist snob Nikos had come up against. Being the poorest kid at a prestigious school—‘the scholarship boy’—had led to an ever-present sense of being
