Although she had spent all her life in Greece, young Serra Costalos was only half Greek. She couldn’t endure the thought of the cold-blooded, arranged marriage that was in store for her.
In fact, she had already run away form home when, quite by chance, she met an Englishman, Dirk Morgan, and discovered that he was looking for a wife, but a wife with a difference. Dirk had to marry in order to inherit a fortune, and as he was self-confessed rake with no intention of changing his ways, he wanted a wife who would leave him alone and not be a nuisance.
So Serra and Dirk married. But neither of them got quite what they expected.
