Eloise first met Marcus when she was nineteen. She was on holiday in Greece with her Mother, who insisted she call her by her Christian name Chloe, as she wanted Eloise to pretend they were sisters. Marcus tall and handsome had the wow factor for the innocent Eloise. They shared one date and a few kisses before he had to leave due to his Father being taken ill.
Fast forward to the present and Eloise is having dinner with a man who is considering investing in her jewellery business she jointly owns with her two friends. By chance Marcus is at the same nightclub and spots Eloise, what she doesn't know is that five years ago when they were in Greece, her mother had conned Marcus's uncle out of a lot of money. Marcus firmly believes that Eloise was a full party to this scam.
Eventually Marcus is able to replace the intended investor, and have the upper hand with Eloise and demands she become his lover for a year, or else.
Now I ask you would you willingly fall in love with a jerk like this, he is rude insulting and tries to control Eloise's every movement. He constantly reminds her what a liar she is and how many men she must have slept with to get things she wanted. Yet every time he comes near her she melts at his slightest touch. If he was a bully and a jerk, she was plain stupid. oh he grovels at the end but by then it was too late for me, I no longer cared.
