But that was okay with Dare. He’d paid off his cousin’s debt and helped BG Textiles weather the storm caused by his cousin’s desperation. Because none of it mattered now that he had the one thing he’d always longed for—a family he could rely on and give his heart to.
Especially his beautiful wife-to-be who was walking towards him down the short aisle that had been laid out in the rose garden.
Both Rachel and Beth, Carly’s mother, pulled out hankies, but Dare’s eyes were totally focused on the gorgeous redhead in the long white sheath.
Just as she got to him Dare reached out his hand to take her from her father’s arm when Gregory shot up like a rocket and started yapping for all he was worth.
‘It’s okay, buddy,’ Dare said. ‘We’ve got her now.’
The little dog cocked his head, yawned, and then dropped immediately at Dare’s feet, his nose in his paws.
Carly shook her head, laughing. ‘For all the time I’ve walked him and petted him he has never once done anything I’ve asked him to do.’
‘Don’t sweat it, Red,’ Dare said, smoothing a wisp of her hair back beneath her veil. ‘I’ll do anything you ask me to for the rest of our lives.’
Carly gazed at her husband-to-be and glanced at the large photo of Liv on a nearby stand. Yes, her sister would have adored this man and, fighting back tears, she gave Liv a small smile, silently telling her sister that she wished she were here to share in this grand occasion. Then she laid her hand in Dare’s and turned to face the future with the man she loved with all her heart.

The Mistress That Tamed De Santis
by Natalie Anderson
CHAPTER ONE
CROWN PRINCE ANTONIO DE SANTIS strolled along the dark street, savouring the stolen moment of freedom as he walked off the burn from the last eighty minutes in the palace gym.
Silence. Solitude. Darkness. Peace.
He checked the hood of his sweatshirt still hid most of his face. He’d soon have to turn back. In less than an hour this road would be crawling with workers frantically finishing preparations and testing the barricades they’d installed over the last day. The crowds would gather early too. San Felipe’s car rally was prestigious, hotly contested and the starting gun for the annual carnival, which meant Antonio’s next couple of weeks were even more packed than usual. State balls, trade meetings, society events, the carnival celebrations required a round-the-clock royal presence as the world’s wealthy and glamorous came to indulge and experience his country’s beauty. And with his younger brother away, Crown Prince Antonio was the only royalty on offer.
