title: Lucifer's Choice
author: Carlo, Jianne
description: In order to avoid a pre-arranged marriage to one of India's most eligible bachelors, Nalini runs away, hiding out for two years on a ship. Pirates storm the ship, and Lucifer's Hades Squad rescues the crew...all except for the one lone female engineer, who vanishes. Then Lucifer, aka Sax Anders, is hired to find the runaway bride, the daughter of close family friends.
  
  Nalini learns Lucifer's in Santa Fe. Her teenage crush on Lucifer's never wavered even though she hasn't seen him in eight years. Now she needs to lose her virginity to avoid marriage--could the fates have been kinder?
  
  Lucifer never loses his cool, never acts on impulse, until one sultry Santa Fe night when he beds a mysterious exotic beauty who seems vaguely familiar. Their shattering sex stuns Lucifer; he suggests another date. Nalini informs him she's engaged. He's outraged--she used him.
  
  It doesn't get much better when he learns his mysterious beauty is also that runaway bride.
