London was once bitten, twice shy. London Sanders had no intention of falling into the same trap again. Love wasn't an option now. Besides, Mark Farrow was trouble with a capital T, not to mention annoying and self-righteous—but damn, he was hot with his bulging muscles … something that made her ovaries burst out in song and dance every time he was near. Why deny herself some … er … pleasure, right? Soooo … she offered him a compromise. London Sanders was his chosen bride and he went at her with all guns blazing. Mark Farrow had it all. Born from old money and with a heart of gold, he was every woman’s dream. Only he preferred to … er … play the field and wasn’t looking for love. That is, until the cheeky redhead came across his path and changed his destiny. He had no intention of allowing a misplaced broken heart—because he didn't believe she'd truly loved the man who'd treated her like dirt—stand in his way of getting what he wanted. Would Mark be satisfied with a friends with benefits arrangement ... and if so ... for how long? Was London just setting herself up for heartache ... again? Only time would tell. Editor's note: I'm jealous of London. I want a Mark. As usual, Basset intertwines an exceptional love story—with EXCEPTIONALLY hot scenes—with a twist of crime and suspense. Tender, romantic, with just a dash of jealousy and angst, as well as a healthy dose of erotic candy for the eyes, and Chosen Bride will easily become one of those books you want to read again and again just for the good feels.
