Under His Thumb - E-book - ePub

Claire Beaumont has returned home to take up a teaching position after the death of her husband, Nathan. Ethan Ferguson is the man she left behind when she chose Nathan. But now, Nathan isn't here, and it seems Ethan feels a debt is owed to him. Nathan was his accountant, and a huge sum of money disappeared after Claire and Nathan left town together. Ethan thinks that Claire and Nathan were in on the robbery together, so he's come calling for repayment. Once he sees Claire again, though, all thoughts of turning her in to the authorities change into another form of repayment altogether.
He has decided that she will marry him! How will Claire ever convince her new husband that she knew nothing about the stolen money? Even more important, can their love be rekindled now that he has forced her into a marriage like this? Publisher's Note: This steamy western romance contains a theme of power exchange.
