ANIMAL INSTINCTS
Book ID/图书代码： 06140508B26990
English Summary/英文概要： Clodagh Martin has got enough to worry about. The last thing she needs is to have her soap sister Imogen turning up on her doorstep in the middle of the night, stinking of booze, all her worldly possessions at her feet, with a trail of paparazzi in her wake, desperate for a picture of her after she disgraced herself on national television by calling her now ex boyfriend all the names under the sun and then proceeding to have a cat fight with his new girlfriend! Clodagh loves her sister. But with bills coming out her ears and an animal sanctuary which breeds debt to look after, her sister’s melodramas are the last things she needs! As if things aren’t bad enough already, Clodagh has noticed that the sanctuary, Rainbow’s End, has become a target for vandals, and what she had previously ignored as being isolated incidents, soon begins to grow more and more insidious. Although Clodagh has got no concrete evidence, she cannot help but suspect that the instigator of these vandalism attacks is local business magnate Jack Thatcher. Rich, charismatic and drop dead gorgeous, Jack Thatcher is as sexy as sin. However, Clodagh knows that Jack wants to get his hands on her land and the ruthless millionaire will stop at nothing to get what he wants- even seduction! Clodagh is determined not to let anyone bully her into selling the home of her dreams - even if it is forcing her down the road to bankruptcy! – but resisting Jack’s charms is proving harder than ever!
Jack seems determned to seduce Clodagh, and even though Clodagh knows that the only reason why he is paying any attention to her is to force her into selling Rainbow’s End, she’s secretly flattered that the village’s most eligible bachelor is paying any heed to her! But Clodagh has already had her heart broken once before, and she is not about to go down that road again – not even for one of the sexiest men she’s ever clapped eyes on! But as their relationship deepens, has Clodagh done the unthinkable and fallen in love with the enemy?
With a potty-mouthed parrot, a drama queen sister, a gay donkey and a deranged vandal on the loose, Clodagh certainly does not need any more complications in her life! But will Jack be able to prove to her that the only thing she needs to be happy is him?
