By My Heart Betrayed

by Olga Bicos

Overview

HER BEAUTY WAS THE BAIT...

Esmeralda MacClure knew that using her fiery beauty as a weapon was heartless. But her cousin's betrayal had stolen her family estate and now, forced to work as a seamstress, she has no choice if she wants to reclaim her inheritance. She must find a rich gentleman, and lure him with her exquisite charms, no matter what it takes....

HE HAD ALWAYS ENJOYED THE CHASE...

Arrogant playboy Keane Marshall thought it great sport to challenge a scheming "shopgirl" who was also the most devastatingly lovely woman he had ever seen. His seducing Esmeralda would expose her as a fortune hunter...and slake the hungry passion she awoke in his blood. But he never dreamed that one taste of her silken body would unleash an unquenchable fever to possess this wayward enchantress... and melt her unyielding heart.

About the Author

Given her background, it's no wonder Olga Bicos is a suspense novelist now—intrigue has run rampant in her life. Born in Cuba, she and her parents fled to the United States when Olga was just five years old. Her uncle, however, was part of an underground organization attempting to overthrow Castro. He was captured and held as a political prisoner for 15 years.

Growing up, Olga was deeply influenced by her family's history. It fostered in her a need for justice that eventually led her to Boalt Hall, School of Law, at the University of California at Berkeley. She graduated hoping to pursue a career in international relations law, but went instead to an entertainment law firm in Los Angeles.

Eventually she left to raise her children and to begin her writing career. She started out writing historical romances, five in all, and then moved on to suspense.
