Scandalous Affairs - Tangled Hearts, #5 - E-book - ePub

Return to the enchanting Chateau Vauquelin in a tale filled with intrigue and passion, as a century-old mystery resurfaces in the bustling streets of modern-day Paris. Gatecrashing a high-society wedding at Chateau Vauquelin isn't Celeste Morel's finest hour. But it's her last chance to find the secret papers hidden within the chateau's deep walls. Documents that might prove whether Madame Duval left Paris alive nearly ninety years ago, or if she was murdered by the previous owner.
And the plan would have worked, if only the best man hadn't confiscated them. Nick Magnani is fighting his way through France's famous bureaucracy. So, it's something of an irony that he's now withholding papers from the one woman in Paris who has the connections he needs to secure his latest venture. But, amid their heated exchanges, the chemistry that has been sizzling ever since Nick and Celeste met ignites, intensifying their tumultuous relationship. Despite Nick's reservations, Celeste delves deeper into the secrets of the past, only to discover the papers hold more than just Madame Duval's fate.
As Celeste and Nick unlock a Pandora's box of revelations, they become entangled in a dangerous web of passion, betrayal, and corruption-that someone will do anything to keep quiet.
