Orageuses fiançailles / Piège pour un play-boy

by Victoria Parker

Eva est furieuse. Comment Dante Vitale a-t-il osé l’embrasser, en public, alors qu’il est fiancé à une autre femme ? C’est sans doute sans importance pour ce richissime milliardaire, mais l’entreprise de confection de robes de mariées qu’elle dirige ne survivra jamais à un tel scandale ! Aussi, quand Dante lui apprend ne s’être inventé une fiancée que pour remporter un important contrat, et qu’il lui propose de transformer ce scandale en conte de fées médiatique – un amour bouleversant, plus fort que les convenances – , Eva sait qu’elle doit accepter. Pourtant, jouer à l’amoureuse promet d’être un cauchemar. Car, malgré les années, elle n’a pas oublié ce soir terrible où Dante l’a rejetée alors qu’elle lui offrait son cœur d’adolescente…

About the author

Victoria Parker's first love was a dashing heroic fox named Robin Hood. Then came the powerful, suave Mr Darcy, then Lady Chatterley's rugged lover and the list goes on. Thinking she must be an unfaithful sort of girl, but ever the optimist, she relentlessly pursued her Mr. Literary Right and eventually found him lying between the cool, crisp sheets of an M&B Harlequin romance. Her obsession was born.
If only real life were just as easy...
Alas, against the advice of her English teacher to cultivate her writers muse, she chased the corporate dream and acquired various uninspiring job titles and a flesh-and-blood hero before she surrendered to that persistent voice and penned her first romance. Turns out creating havoc for sassy heroines and devilish heroes who are dynamite-at-first-sight truly is the best job in the world.
Victoria now lives out her own happy-ever-after in the north-east of England with her alpha exec and their two children - a masterly charmer in the making and, apparently, the next Disney Princess. Believing sleep is highly overrated, she writes until 3am, ignores the housework and still loves nothing more than getting cosy with a romance novel. When she isn't buried in a book she loves discovering far-flung destinations and getting into mischief with her rather wonderful extended family!
