Runaway Bride

Wealthy and beautiful Melanie Wyatt has left a trail of heartbroken and abandoned fiancés throughout San Francisco—for she can allow no man to share her secret life. A smuggler of priceless Oriental artifacts, the sensuous, strong-willed socialite uses her ill-gotten gains to buy freedom for enslaved Chinese children. But a master of disguise and seduction threatens to halt her charitable works with erotic persuasion.

A dashing and dangerous adversary, Alex McClure ruthlessly desires what only Melanie can give. Now the cunning, resourceful miss faces exposure—and perhaps far worse. For Melanie Wyatt can run from her handsome, relentless pursuer—but she can't hide from his passion...or the power of his love.
