Passion's Price

"I've been offered bribes before, but this is the first time anyone's offered me his own daughter." Laine winced at the truth so plainly spoken. She could be had for a price: one million dollars. Always the quiet one, the plain one, unable to hold a candle to her stunning older sister, she wondered how far she would go to win her father's love -- or Nick Brannon's. The college counted on the Brannon grant. Her father insisted she try to tip the scales in the school's favor. But as Nick took her in his arms, as she felt his lips soft and demanding on hers, she asked herself how far she really could go without paying too great a price for her own awakening passion.

Hero: Nick Brannon
