Walking away, Christian turned and looked back at her to find her strange tawny eyes remained fixed on him, full of overwhelming emotion, and that was the moment that he knew in the deepest core of his being, that beside her all other women were irrelevant. His passion for her was torn asunder by guilt. Age and experience had taught him that some women couldn’t be trusted and the first woman to show him this was Selina. Her affair with his own father had hurt him very badly and ruined whatever relationship he’d had with him, whose main interests in life had been Egypt and beautiful women.

He was careful to choose women whose company he enjoyed. They had to be intelligent and sophisticated, and would not mistake lovemaking and desire with love, and, moreover, they had to be women who made no demands and expected no promises. Until he’d met Linnet Osborne this had been his mantra.

In the past hard logic and cold reason had always conquered his lust—with Linnet Osborne it was different. Feeling threatened in some strange way, he told himself he had to end it. He had to purge her out of his mind before he was completely beaten—and if he continued to see her he would lose the battle. He was in danger of losing his heart to her and he would not permit that. The stakes were too high.
