 | Enchanting Pleasures by Eloisa James
Quill Dewland is heir to a large fortune that has grown considerably in recent years, thanks to his own good business sense. Now it's time for him to marry and produce an heir. Quill's father has just the woman in mind: a British girl named Gabrielle, who lives in India, where the Dewland family has substantial investments. But there's a problem: ever since a riding accident some time ago, Quill has been susceptible to horrendous three-day migraines which are triggered by any rhythmic rocking motion. Therefore, he can't engage in any heir-producing activities. So Quill's dad decides that Gabrielle will have to marry Quill's younger brother, Peter, a fastidious dandy with a suspicious fondness for makeup. But when Gabrielle arrives in London, Peter is disgusted by her voluptuous figure and lusty, unsophisticated provincial ways, and declares he wants nothing to do with her. Meanwhile, Gabrielle becomes enchanted by manly, masterful Quill. The feeling is mutual; overcome by Gabrielle's charms, Quill proposes marriage, but soon confides that they mustn't consummate their union, lest he become violently ill for three days. Emotionally bruised from her encounters with the sexually-challenged Dewland brothers, Gabrielle consults a wizened old Hindu healer, who of course has just the thing to cure sex-induced migraine susceptibility. However, the healer cautions Gabrielle that the cure, while always effective, is quite dangerous, and sometimes fatal. Besotted with Gabrielle, and distracted by an evil plot that threatens his business interests in India, Quill agrees to take the potion. Will he survive to rock another day? AUTHOR: Eloisa James
