Would it really be a convenient marriage? Lucas van de Weijnen didn't ask Octavia to marry him--he told her. Octavia's father had just died and she wasn't in any state of mind to make a rational decision. Besides, Lucas wasn't a man to take no for an answer. But after the wedding, Octavia found herself falling under the spell of a man--her husband! And though they had both promised to love each other for the rest of their lives, she had no idea how Lucas felt about her.
