The consequence he must claim!
Eloise Dean was an innocent in every way, until she met Vito Viscari! The charismatic Italian tycoon swept her off her feet and into his bed, promising her unimaginable pleasure. But as she reveled in his seduction, Eloise had no idea he could never be hers...
Duty to another forced Vito to end his and Eloise’s scorching nights together, but he cannot put her from his mind. Months later, desire drives him back into her arms. Only then does he discover the shocking truth: Eloise is carrying his heir. Vito sees just one way forward—to legitimize his love-child with a vow!
‘So,’ Vito was saying, and his Italian accent was doing wonderful things to her, as well as what his warm, admiring eyes were doing, ‘am I to call you only bella signorina? Though if I do,’ he murmured, his lashes sweeping over his eyes as his gaze dipped to meet hers, ‘it would be nothing but the truth. Bellissima signorina…’
She took a breath. The air seemed to have too much oxygen in it suddenly. ‘It’s Eloise,’ she said. ‘Eloise Dean.’
He smiled again, warm and intimate, and she felt breathless.
‘Come,’ he said, and there was that low husk in his voice again, ‘lean on me, Signorina Eloise Dean. I’ll take care of you.’
She gazed up at him. He seemed very tall, she realised. And absolutely devastating… Her breath caught, her lips parting softly, and her eyes were wide as she just stared up at him, drinking him in.
The sculpted mouth quirked again. Long lashes swept down over deep, dark eyes.
‘Oh, yes,’ he said softly, ‘I’ll take care of you…’
From the bedroom—to the altar!
Eloise and Carla have never expected irresistible passion—until they meet the powerful alpha billionaires who will steal their innocence. But nights of passion can have unexpected consequences…
When Eloise Dean falls at Vito Viscari’s feet, they are both overcome with a desire they can neither resist or deny!

Inside his breast Vito could feel his heart beating strongly. Emotion filled him,
