Chapter 12 Sebastian Aheadache pulsed behind Sebastian’s right eye and fatigue weighed him down like the chains of Marley’s ghost, but the Canadian ambassador seemed far from done with his long-winded explanation of how negotiations would proceed. Jacobs, it seemed, was a thorough man. For a split-second, Sebastian’s gaze collided with the Kachusov’s who served

Chapter 11 Meredith In their stateroom, Meredith stared at the clothes in the closet and realized she didn’t have her bag. Hell, she didn’t even have her purse. All of it was back on the island, along with her passport, wallet, keys, everything. Perching on the edge of the bed, she drummed her fingers restlessly

Chapter 10 Meredith An artist. Sebastian was an artist. It was like the interlocking, yet oh so vital, centerpiece she’d been missing of a puzzle. He painted everything—landscapes, people, and scenes from mythology. The emotional depth of the works took her breath away. He stood patiently while she walked from stack to stack and began to

Chapter 6 Sebastian Meredith puzzled him. Her concentrated frown on the gardens sprawling beyond the windows was not the expression he’d expected. But then nothing she’d done since arriving on St. Christos followed presumed convention or her normal behavior.

Chapter 5 Sebastian Sebastian didn’t slow his step as he carried the very sensual, willing Meredith up the stairs and to his suite. Blessing the discretion of the staff as they vacated the hallway even while he strode down it, he lowered her only long enough to open the door and then they were inside.

Chapter 4 Sebastian Sebastian tried to keep his lust under control, but the tight leash he’d forced over his reactions since Meredith’s fateful phone call slipped and need bucked all convention. A ray of sunlight framed her perfectly. Meredith never hid behind layers of couture, coifing and cosmetics like a plastic doll come to life.

Chapter 3 Sebastian After confessing his affair with Meredith to Armand, Sebastian excused himself to meet with Peterson and Vidal. Both men provided very clear visions of how they wanted the visit to Minsk to proceed. Sebastian listened and offered little in the way of changes, though he irritated Peterson by going with Vidal’s specifics
