All Julianne Waterford knew about Alex Lejardin was that he'd rejected her sister and never claimed their baby Liam as his own. But she didn't know that he was a royal, or that he'd never known the child existed. And from the moment she saw Alex's unexpected tenderness for his son, Julianne discovered that the not-so-wicked royal posed a passionately tempting danger to her. Alex always felt guilty for letting Liam's mother walk away for good, and vowed to do whatever it took to be a father to the son he hadn't known he had. But earning Julianne's trust was a formidable task he'd never expected. And winning her heart was a challenge he couldn't resist.
