Capturing the Flame — Mysty McPartland

The moment their eyes clash across the crowded ballroom, Jayla is instantly attracted to the dark-haired man, but regretfully dismisses him after finding out who he is--a womanizing rake. With three men trying to own her, she feels men are a plague on her life and only wishes for them to leave her alone. However, when she finds out her stepbrother has given the rogue permission to court her, she knows she will be fighting the deep attraction she feels towards him.

Even though sexually infatuated with the woman, Ashton is also bent on teaching her a lesson for embarrassing him. But the moment he takes her in his arms, he knows there is only one place for her, and that is in his bed. What he doesn't expect is that he will have to marry her to get her there. When he tells her of his plan, he never suspects she will fight him. Can't she see he is only doing the honorable thing by marrying her? Note: This Mainstream contains infidelity and forced seduction.
