Isaak Zaretsky has come to reclaim his uncle Ivor's fortune. Kate's agreement to marry Ivor was voided with his death. The pretense is over but she is trapped by her family's greed. Isaak forces her to marry him and they journey to Paris for their honeymoon. What happens when the bride refuses? Carol Marinelli has written a wonderful romantic story with just a hint of mystery. I loved the characters. Both are determined, stubborn and at the same time vulnerable. I enjoyed the interaction between them. Kate and Isaak's sexual awareness and powerful attraction made for a passionate romance. Their battle of wills made the sparks fly as did the sensual dialogue. Their honeymoon in the City of Lights added the perfect touch. I was hooked from the first page. I loved this story. It is definitely a keeper.
