***Author Note*** This book was a part of the Royal and Reckless Anthology. The ending has been extended but there are no significant changes to the storyline.
Karine Cooper hates Dimitri the instant she meets him. He's rude, demanding and...arrogant. Unfortunately, he's also her sons' uncle and the prince of Esterden. Now Dimitri is threatening to take her son, Mateo away unless she agrees to play by the rules.

Dimitri Wincott is livid the moment he finds out about his brothers' son. Omar died without ever knowing he had a child. Regardless, Mateo must be raised as a Wincott for he's heir to the throne. In exchange for Karine's cooperation, he offers her financial security and a life of luxury. It seemed more than generous to him.

It might've been simple, too, if he didn't also want her in his bed...
