His gaze turned incendiary. “You lost your chance to set the rules of the game when you elected to keep your pregnancy from me, Sofía.”
He knew. She swallowed hard and forced herself to stay calm. “I was going to tell you. This week.”
“This week?” Nikandros yelled the words, his iron control snapping. “Do you have any idea what this means?”
Her insides flip-flopped. “Of course I do. Which is why I haven’t said anything yet. Because I knew you would appear just like you have now and start making decisions. And I need to understand how I feel about this first. What I want to do.”
His gaze narrowed on her. “What you want to do?”
Heat rushed to her cheeks. “I didn’t mean that. Of course I’m having this baby. It’s the logistics I’m not sure of.”
“Logistics we should have discussed days ago.”
She stared at Nikandros. Did he think this was any more convenient for her, with her lifestyle? Any less than a disaster for her than it was for him?
Her chin dipped. “We can talk about this over the phone.”
He caught her jaw in his fingers, the rage burning in his eyes making her heart pound.
“We aren’t talking about it on the phone. Akathinian law says this child we have conceived will succeed me to the throne. It’s a huge problem, Sofía. One we will solve now.”
Jennifer Hayward invites you into a world of …
Young royals in reckless pursuit of passion!

JENNIFER HAYWARD has been a fan of romance since filching her sister’s novels to escape her teenage angst. Her career in journalism and PR—including years of working alongside powerful, charismatic CEOs and travelling the world—has provided her with perfect fodder for the fast-paced, sexy stories she likes to write—always with a touch of humour. A native of Canada’s east coast, Jennifer lives in Toronto with her Viking husband and young Viking-in-training.
For my mother, who is quite simply the best person I know. Your spirit and love of philosophy inspired this book. Your belief in me has always been such a big part of how I get to ‘The End’.
And for Stella, for your help and for being one of those people you meet once and know it can’t be for the last time.
