A Man of Means — Kay Thorpe

Mark had seemed far out of her reach

Dana had fallen in love with him--yet how could a seventeen-year-old hold the interest of such a mature successful man?

Though his marriage proposal was a surprise, she eagerly accepted and asked no questions. But Mark let her know that theirs would not be a normal relationship.

Bitterly she pondered why he had married her. Then one day he cruelly told her, "I was blackmailed. " Her happiness and her pride were at stake, and Dana refused to remain a mere pawn in her own life!

Hero: Mark Senior
