Compelled, charmed and compromised!
Mariel loved Bride's Bay Resort, its Sea Island location, its friendly staff. She'd jumped at the offer to translate there again—but soon wished she hadn't. For one thing, working for a security-conscious delegation was no job for a woman with a past. For another, there was Nicholas Leigh, the most commanding, charismatic man Mariel had ever met and—for her—the most dangerous!
From the start a feral and magnetic attraction crackled between them. An affair with a delegate would be indiscreet enough. If Nicholas discovered her carefully covered past, too, it would destroy both their lives. For his sake—for hers, too—Mariel had to get out of this man's life . But first she had to break the spell that bound them!

This book should have had another title. It was nice that as dedicated as Nick was to Mariel, to find out what he had to do, to win her love, and to be sure that she would marry him, and it was nice for Nick to find out that what Mariel knew about her parents was wrong, and that she could free her conscience to be free enough to love someone enough to marry. This story didn't have enough caring and love, but waited until the end of the story to bring that to the surface. This was the kind of story that dragged out until the end, with a happy ending at last. The chemistry is always there, but if you have a romance novel, hey, develop the love too. There is nothing wrong with developing the love as well as the characters. Ms. Donald is a good writer, but this book could have done better.
