His Bride for the Taking
It’s the first rule of friendship among gentlemen: Don’t even think about touching your best friend’s sister. Sebastian, Lord Byrne, has never been one for rules.

Having seen her last firm, Millennial Credit, taken over by a high street bank, she’s looking for a fresh challenge: an industry where technology can be the cure-all.
