It was hate-at-first sight between Karine Cooper and Dimitri Wincott. She thinks he’s rude, demanding, and arrogant. He is all that but he’s also her son’s uncle and the prince of Esterden. Karine has to cooperate with him or lose her son.
Dimitri is livid the moment he finds out about his late brother’s son, Mateo, a product of a short affair. Nevertheless, he has a responsibility to raise the boy in a manner befitting the heir to the throne. If only he knew what to do with his nephew’s all-too attractive mother: offer her a generous settlement to leave her son in his care or keep her in his bed. The Ultimatum is the first book in the Masquerade series.
