Strictly Seduction
by Shelley Bradley

PURELY PASSION

Life has taught Madeline Sedgewick that nothing comes without a price--even desire. Widowed and deeply in debt, she's certain that whomever has bought her late husband's notes of credit will demand a steep repayment. But she never imagines that it will be Brock Taylor, basborn former stable-hand, newly wealthy entrepreneur--and the man who stole her heart, and so much more, five years ago.

Brock's memories of their parting are even more bitter than Maddie's, and his plans for their future are nothing like those he cherished during the bliss of first love. But seeing Maddie again--just as spirited, stubborn, and beautiful as ever--awakens a desire he thought long dead. Soon a dangerous wager is struck, with Brock's self-made fortune and Maddie's treasured independence at stake. A wager only one of them can win--as long as they resist the other's passionate seduction...

Shelley Bradley's Bio

Shelley Bradley lives in the southwest with her husband and daughter, juggling the many roles in her life: writer, mother, wife and all around laundress. She refuses to pick up an iron. Shelley also squeezes in time for fun activities like reading, obsessively studying all things Harry Potter, watching (again) every episode of Trading Spaces, doing step aerobics and weightlifting, and listening to an eclectic blend of music. Who else would have Depeche Mode, Tchaikovsky, the soundtrack to Broadway's Mamma Mia and Disney Princess songs in her car's CD player all at once?

The author of sizzling contemporary, erotic and historical romances, Shelley has been a member of Romance Writers of America for over fifteen years and has won or placed in over a dozen contests, including the Golden Heart.
