As she rushes past a fine hotel engulfed in flames, a wrapped bundle tumbles from a window into her arms.

Five years later Lucy walks into Rand Higgins's bank and knows: the orphan she rescued that day actually belongs to this ruthless financier. Now, to keep the child she's come to love, she'll have to give up her hard-won freedom and become his wife. But giving Rand her heart? That, she could never have expected. 2001. T10.
