  When Alida was seventeen, her father promised her to a wealthy but brash young Greek who had no idea of how to treat a woman. She rebelled and fled to England -- but before she became his wife.
  
  Eight years later, Dariius Valaris came into Alida's life again to ruin her Bahamian island paradise with hotels and parking lots. But he'd changed, and despite herself, she found him very appealing.
  
  No, she told herself. Never again! But the fire in his eyes was melting her resolution....
