‘This isn’t a social call, Cassandra. I’ve come to take you back to Rome.’
Marco couldn’t have said anything to make her rally faster. ‘I beg your pardon?’ she demanded.
‘Well, you can’t stay here.’
He glanced around, and by the time his assessing stare returned to her face it was to see her cheeks flaming with the knowledge that he was right. She wasn’t finding this pregnancy easy. She was sick and weak, and he doubted she could work in her current condition. How was she supposed to support herself, let alone a baby … a baby that might be his child? He couldn’t take that chance. More importantly, she couldn’t take a chance with her child, and they both knew that with her godmother away Cassandra was alone, with no one to turn to.
No one except him.
‘Pack a small case,’ he advised. ‘We can buy anything else you need in Rome. We’ll leave as soon as you’re ready.’
‘I haven’t agreed,’ she pointed out, raising her chin to stare at him with defiance.
‘But you will,’ he said.
When one night … leads to pregnancy!
When succumbing to a night of unbridled desire it’s impossible to think past the morning after!
But, with the sheets barely settled, that little blue line appears on the pregnancy test and it doesn’t take long to realise that one night of white-hot passion has turned into a lifetime of consequences!
Only one question remains:
How do you tell a man you’ve just met that you’re about to share more than just his bed?

Susan Stephens
SUSAN STEPHENS was a professional singer before meeting her husband on the Mediterranean island of Malta. In true Mills & Boon Modern Romance style they met on Monday, became engaged on Friday and married three months later. Susan enjoys entertaining, travel and going to the theatre. To relax she reads, cooks and plays the piano, and when she’s had enough of relaxing she throws herself off mountains on skis, or gallops through the countryside singing loudly.
For my Tuscan teammates, Linda, Ann, and the inimitable Sharon.

PLUNGING HER SPADE into the rich moist earth of Tuscany, Cass smiled as she reflected on her good luck in landing the job in Italy. She loved nothing more than being outdoors, using her body to the full. And where better than here, to an accompaniment of birdsong and the gurgle of a crystal-clear river. Her job was to help out at a grand estate over the planting season.
The staff had a day off on Wednesdays to break up the week, so she had the place to herself, making it all too easy to imagine that she was the chatelaine in charge of the glorious grounds—though perhaps not kitted out in mud-caked boots, braless in a skimpy vest she’d ripped on some barbed wire, topped off with a baseball
