About the book

Tall, bronzed Spanish Frenchman Xavier Salgado-Lezille isn't a man a girl can say no to easily. Jane tries to play it cool, but she's inexperienced...and a virgin. Falling in love isn't part of the plan... neither is discovering she's pregnant once the affair is over. Xavier, 36, knows she's carrying his child, and he wants an heir. Jane has been chosen as his bride!
