About this ebook

Une épouse sous contrat, Carole Mortimer

Casey rêve d’offrir à son petit garçon un avenir radieux. Aussi, le jour où le richissime Xander Fraser – menacé de perdre la garde de sa fillette s’il reste célibataire –, lui propose un mariage de convenance et un foyer idéal pour son fils, elle accepte. A une condition, toutefois : que son union avec Xander reste purement platonique. Aussi beau et séduisant soit-il...

La fiancée de Lucchesi, Rebecca Winters

Catherine est désemparée. Comment en est-elle arrivée là ? Alors qu’elle était venue en Italie avec la seule intention de rencontrer son père biologique, la voilà folle amoureuse d’Alessandro Lucchesi ! Alessandro, l’homme convoité par sa propre sœur, et qu’elle devra, de surcroît, bientôt quitter, pour rentrer chez elle, à l’autre bout du monde...

Le mariage de l’année, Melissa James

Mia n’a plus le choix. Son père, une star adulée, est malade et elle doit à tout prix le protéger du harcèlement des médias. Afin de détourner sur elle l’attention des journalistes – elle, la fille trop sage du tumultueux rockeur – elle a un plan : épouser le célèbre C.J. Hunter. Car qui mieux que l’ex-chanteur pourrait éveiller, par son mariage, la passion des foules – lui qui sait déjà si bien faire battre les cœurs, à commencer par le sien... ?

About the author

Romance author Carole Mortimer was born in a small village in England. She trained as a nurse for one year, but had to stop due to weakness in her back that resulted from a fall. She began writing while she was working in the computer department of a stationary company. Her first book, A Passionate Winter, was published in 1978 and she has written over 100 books since then. Rebecca Winters attended bording school in Lausanne, Switzerland at the age of 17, where she learned to speak French and met girls from all over the world. Upon returning to the U.S., Winters developed her love of languages when she earned a B.A. in secondary education, history, French, and Spanish from the University of Utah and did postgraduate work in Arabic. Because of her studies overseas, Winters decided to become a teacher and studied French and history in Utah. For the past 15 years, she's taught junior-high and high-school French and history. Winters' first novel was published in 1978. It was called By Love Divided, and published under the name Rebecca Burton. As soon as she finished that novel, she started another novel entitled The Loving Season. A few years later, Harlequin bought Blind to Love, a story that takes place in Kenya. Winters has won the National Readers' Choice Award, the Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award, and has been named Utah Writer of the Year. She was winner of the January 2001 Romantic Times Magazine WISH Hero award to Alik Jarman for His Very Own, a finalist in the National Readers' Choice Award in the traditional category to be announced during the National RWA Convention in July of 2001 for The Faithful Bride, she won a B Dalton Award, made the Waldenbooks Bestseller Lists, has won mutiple awards from the Romantic Times Reviewer's Choice, as well as being a Romantic Times Career Achievement Nominee and winning First Place in the National Reader's Choice Awards. Winters was also crowned Utah Writer of the Year. She is working her way toward her 50th novel for Harlequin. Melissa James is a former nurse, waitress, shop assistant and history student at university. Falling into writing through her husband (who thought it would be a good way to keep her out of trouble while the kids were little) Melissa was soon hooked. A native Australian, she now lives in Switzerland which is fabulous inspiration for new stories.
