Defiant Mistress
Author: Elaine Barbieri
Genre: Romance
Book Type: Paperback


HEART OF AN ANGEL
Poor and alone, ebon-haired Angelica needed money fast-but there was only one way a girl could get lots of cash in the small mining town. The innocent beauty detested the thought of selling her body's charms, but the day came when she had no choice but to walk the streets. Tears filling her alluring eyes, she happened upon rich, towering Gareth Dawson, and arranged to be his high-priced consort. He clasped her hard against his virile chest, he trailed sensuous kisses down her creamy neck...and Angelica never guessed that one passionate night in his ardent embrace would make her want him for all eternity!

SOUL OF A DEVIL
Because his father had married badly, dark and moody Gareth Dawson had learned that ladies made life miserable-unless a man was free to love and free to leave. Even though he became wildly infatuated with Anglica's ripe curves and supple flesh, he wouldn't let his deeper, more protective instincts move his hardened feelings. Then the moment arrived when he couldn't deny he would always need her by his side...but still he swore he'd never take her for his lawful wedded wife. No matter what she wanted, Gareth would keep her only as his loving concubine, his wild Defiant Mistress.
