Abby Green - Married For The Tycoon's Empire

His million-dollar bride...

Ben Carter’s reputation has been savaged by a shocking press exposé and there’s only one way to save both it and his latest business venture: with a gold ring. In Julianna Ford—daughter of his European rival—Ben’s found the perfect candidate...until she says no.

No one refuses Ben Carter, not least of all this beautiful and beguiling English society princess. So when Julianna auctions one kiss for charity, Ben seizes the chance to win his heiress. He might have paid one million dollars for a kiss, but Ben intends to have so much more!

Julianna wore an elaborate black lace mask over the top half of her face and it only enhanced her beauty, making her look mysterious. But even the mask couldn’t hide the brilliant blue of her eyes. Or that enticing mouth.

Mine. The word thrummed through Ben’s blood, just as a voice near the front shouted out, ‘Five thousand dollars!’

Something went tight inside Ben as the bidding started to escalate. Ten thousand...fifteen...twenty. There were gasps now, people looking around. And then a booming voice called out, ‘Fifty thousand dollars!’

The auctioneer held his gavel up and asked if anyone wanted to contest this latest bid. No one moved. The thought of that man getting anywhere near Julianna made Ben feel a level of violence he hadn’t experienced in a long time.

The auctioneer brought the gavel down once, twice...

just before he could bring it down again Ben spoke authoritatively into the silence. ‘One million dollars.’

Everyone gasped and turned to look at him. He walked forward, the crowd parting to let him through.

When he was near the dais, he stopped and said, ‘But I want more than a kiss. For a million dollars I want a weekend with Julianna Ford.’
