Bought Damsel In Distress

By Lucy King

Billionaire's bid...

Luke Harrison is always in control. But ever since he bid for the chance to save a green–bikini? clad beauty he's felt his self–possession slipping away...

Blind Date...

Independent Emily does not want rescuing; until Luke, a smouldering knight in shining armour, swoops in on his private jet and starts to change her mind!

Secret baby?

Neither is prepared for the heat between them as Emily undoes her steely–eyed billionaire; and their no–strings fling leads to pleasure beyond their imagining…

Lucy King

Lucy spent her formative years lost in the world of Mills & Boon romance when she really ought to have been paying attention to her teachers. Up against sparkling heroines, gorgeous heroes and the magic of falling in love, trigonometry and absolute ablatives didn't stand a chance. But as she couldn't live in a dream world forever, she eventually acquired a degree in languages and an eclectic collection of jobs. A stroll to the River Thames one Saturday morning led her to her very own hero. The minute she laid eyes on the hunky rower getting out of a boat, clad only in Lycra and carrying a 3-meter oar like it was a toothpick, she knew she'd met the man she was going to marry. Luckily the rower thought the same. She will always be grateful to whatever it was that made her stop dithering and actually sit down to type chapter one, because dreaming up her own sparkling heroines and gorgeous heroes is pretty much her idea of the perfect job. Originally a Londoner, Lucy now lives in Spain where she spends much of the time reading, failing to finish cryptic crosswords and trying to convince herself that lying on the beach really is the best way to work.

Reviews for Bought Damsel In Distress

[colereising · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

As most of you already are aware, I love Natalie's books. :-) This one started out rough for me though. I felt like the heroine swung back and forth and her initial reasons and reasoning for getting involved with the hero seemed to alter. Not saying that doesn't happen in real life but the first reasons were never revisited to my satisfaction I guess. :-( But that having been said, once over that stuff the book evened out and stayed true to the new set of conflicts and really worked for me. I loved the ending and am definitely looking forward to her next book.
