Southern Seduction
by Brenda Jernigan
Finalist Bookseller’s Best Award Brooke Hammond leaves England determined to make a success of the Louisiana plantation she inherited. Only one obstacle stands in her way--a devilishly charming, infernally arrogant obstacle named Travis Montgomery, co-owner of her estate. If Travis marries and produces an heir within the year, Moss Grove will be his--unless he marries Brooke. Seducing Travis and then sending him on his way should be simple, but the searing desire Brooke feels in his presence presents an unexpected complication ...
Travis took his father’s dilapidated estate and turned it into a profitable enterprise, and no woman is going to claim it from him. So begins a contest of wits and will, where temptation and torrid kisses are the weapons of choice, and surrender the ultimate prize. But for two worthy opponents, winning the battle may mean losing everything that matters...

### From the Author
Courtesans rose from various backgrounds to positions of great power, independence and wealth. Some became the toast of London. They controlled their lives and the lives of others. Most embraced the life they lived and wanted nothing more. And then there were woman such as Brooke Hammond who wanted none of it. She didn't start out to be a whore. Or should she use the more dignified word . . . courtesan. Life was a game of survival, and that was exactly what Brooke had been doing . . . surviving and hoping a better life would come along. And at long last she had her chance . . . .
