The Taming of Xander Sterne The Taming of Xander Sterne Carole Mortimer

Introduction ‘I told you—I’m not embarrassed.’ Sam moved briskly across the room to drop down to her knees in front of Xander as she began to towel-dry the long length of his legs, taking care to gentle her movements on his injured leg, avoiding the several healing scars running the length of it. ‘Liar,’ he drawled. Sam looked up at him sharply. ‘I think you have an overinflated opinion of your sexual prowess, Mr Sterne.’ ‘Not recently, I don’t,’ he admitted. The perfect opening … ‘I should have mentioned this to you before.’ Sam kept her head bent as she concentrated on drying his feet. ‘I don’t think … I would prefer it if, for the duration of our stay here, you didn’t …’ She began again. ‘I realise this is an imposition, but I’d prefer it if you refrained from bringing any women to your apartment while I’m here,’ she muttered. He arched one blond and arrogant brow. ‘Are you going to make it worth my while?’ Sam blinked. ‘Sorry?’ He placed his hands on the bed behind him and leant back, emphasising the muscles of his shoulders and arms as he looked up at her challengingly. ‘What are you offering in exchange?’ he asked, and a smug grin spread across his face.

The Twin Tycoons THE TWIN TYCOONS Twin billionaire brothers—one dark and brooding, one blond and charming—which would you choose? Billionaire brothers Darius and Xander Sterne have it all— power, wealth, and the world at their beck and call. Never challenged, always triumphant— nothing is unattainable when you own the world, and they’ve enjoyed every indulgence their affluent status affords. Until now. Because these twin tycoons are about to learn that there are some things money and power can’t buy … And that the greatest challenges net the most satisfying rewards. Find out what happens in: THE REDEMPTION OF DARIUS STERNE February 2015 THE TAMING OF XANDER STERNE March 2015

THE TWIN TYCOONS

Twin billionaire brothers—one dark and brooding, one

blond and charming—which would you choose?

Billionaire brothers Darius and Xander Sterne have it all—

power, wealth, and the world at their beck and call. Never

challenged, always triumphant— nothing is unattainable when you own the world, and they’ve enjoyed every indulgence their affluent status affords. Until now.

Because these twin tycoons are about to learn that there are

some things money and power can’t buy … And that the

greatest challenges net the most satisfying rewards.

CHAPTER ONE

‘I APPRECIATE THAT you leave for your honeymoon at the end of the week, Darius, but I seriously do not need you to arrange for a live-in babysitter for me for the two weeks you’re away!’ Xander scowled at his twin brother across the sitting room of his London penthouse apartment.
