About the book: 1999 / It’s unlikely that anyone would like to be someone’s captive. Even if the kidnapper is a French aristocrat. Becoming an obedient instrument in the hands of a man who is planning to settle scores with an enemy is not to the heart of the wayward heroine of the novel. But, worried about her wounded pride, she almost refused the love that a smart, handsome, charming - and, as it turned out later, not so inveterate - attacker aroused in her soul.
