Title: Lair of the Lion
Description: THE BEAUTY
Rumor said the powerful Nicolai DeMarco could command the heavens, that the beasts below did his bidding . . . and that he was doomed to destroy the woman he took as wife. It was whispered he was not wholly humanâ€”as untamed as his tawny mane and slashing amber eyes.

THE BEAUTY
Impoverished aristocrat Isabella Vernaducci would defy death itself to rescue her imprisoned brother. Sheâ€™d even brave the haunted, accursed lair of the lionâ€”the menacing palace of legendary, lethal Don Nicolai DeMarco.

THE BARGAIN
Then Isabella met a man whose growl was velvet, purring heat, whose eyes held dark, all-consuming desire. And when the don commanded her to become his bride, she went willingly into his muscled arms, praying sheâ€™d save his tortured soul . . . not sacrifice her life.
