Dani Collins - His Mistress With Two Secrets

Pregnant with the billionaire’s babies!

After the painfully public demise of her intense fling with renowned tycoon Henri Sauveterre, Cinnia Whitley discovers she’s pregnant...with twins! Cinnia burns with the memory of his touch, but bearing a new generation of the Sauveterre dynasty will bind her to Henri forever—unless she keeps it a secret...

Henri is infuriated when he discovers Cinnia’s deception. His little sister’s abduction ended all his intentions of having a family—but any Sauveterre deserves his full protection. Henri must make Cinnia his wife, and he’ll show her just how pleasurable their reunion can be!

“This is why I didn’t want children. But we’re here now, so we’ll do what we must. You’ll marry me.”

“No…” Cinnia said in a husk of a voice, her lips white.

Henri drew in a tested breath, frustration returning in a flood of heat. “Did you hear what I just said?”

“Yes, I heard you. Fine. I’ll live behind your iron curtain, but—” She swallowed. “But I won’t marry you.”

Her chin came up in what he knew was her standing-her-ground face. His ears buzzed as he sifted through her words. “What do you mean?”

“I mean I’ll live with you, but I won’t live with you.” She flushed and pulled her shoulders up defensively around her ears.

“You don’t want to sleep with me?” His heart bottomed out. She couldn’t mean that.

She flinched and looked away, blinking hard. “No. I don’t.”

“Liar.” It came out of him as a breath of absolute truth.

Henri is the oldest of the Sauveterre Twins. After his sister was kidnapped he decided never to marry and have children, fearing they would become targets. He doesn’t resent being a twin, but he knows who he is beyond that label. He’s very singular…likes control and routine. Life is unpredictable enough without improvising your way through it…that’s his attitude.

Cinnia is also very practical, and independent to a fault. As far as mistresses go, she was the perfect match for Henri, demanding little from him. That was why he was so blindsided when she left him.

I adore it when this happens to our alpha males—when they are über-confident and think they have their lives well in hand and then…wham! The heroine straightens her spine and slams the door behind her.

Cinnia is pregnant, and she knows exactly how Henri will react. Badly! If they can make the jump from defensive and aloof to realizing they are perfect for one another, they have a chance at real happiness. I’ll let you turn the page and discover for yourself how they make out.

Enjoy!

Dani
