Escaping...with his heir!

After falling for the notorious Italian tycoon, waitress Marnie Clarke is horrified to discover that—in Leandro Vialli’s world—she’s “his dirty little secret.” It breaks her fragile heart and she flees with her dignity...and their unborn baby!

Leandro refused to believe the child was his until a paternity test proved him wrong. So when a shocking accident steals Marnie’s memories, he seizes his chance. Convincing Marnie that she’s his fiancée is Leandro’s only chance to secure his legacy.

But before Leandro can say, “I do,” the past comes crashing back and Marnie remembers everything...

‘We planned on a very small, intimate service, with just the two of us and a couple of friends as witnesses.’

Silently Leandro acknowledged his frustration that he was making this up as he was going along.

Marnie frowned. ‘I’m sure I would have decided on a small wedding, but I would never have agreed to be married without inviting my family.’ Marnie noticed a flicker of surprise on Leandro’s features. ‘You will have to help my memory. Have I already chosen a wedding dress? It would be odd if I haven’t, seeing as the wedding is in one month.’

‘You decided to wait and choose a dress in Florence, nearer to the date of the wedding, because you don’t know what size you will be.’

Leandro quickly fabricated a reason for the delay while he made a mental note to invite Marnie’s relatives to the hotel in London where he had booked a simple wedding service. It was important that Marnie believed he genuinely wanted to marry her—which he did. But only so that he could claim his child. It was imperative that he got Marnie to the altar as soon as possible.
