The Price Of Fame

By Anne Oliver

Hiding from the paparazzi…in a sexy stranger's hotel room!

Her flight is cancelled. Her politician fiancé has dumped her. And the press pack are on her tail. Just another day for reclusive heiress Charlotte Dumont. Then handsome charmer Nic Russo offers her his hotel room to hide out in. Are there strings attached? Does she care?

Charlotte has spent her privileged life keeping up appearances, staying in control, never letting go. Tonight, perhaps, she will go a little bit wild – with Nic. And then return to her buttoned-up self in the morning…

'Cleverly written, a pitch-perfect hero and heroine.' – Nadine, Speech Therapist, Nottingham
