Taking The Bait — C.M. Steele

Dante Franchetti starts plotting the moment he finds out that his cousin, visiting from Seattle, Tony Franchetti has been shot in the leg by a rival crime boss, Michael Flanagan. Seeking revenge, Dante's men kidnap Michael Flanagan's only daughter, Diana Flanagan. It's only fair considering she's the cause of the attack on Tony Franchetti and deserves her fate.

Sweet Regan Daley arrives in Chicago to visit her abrasive American cousin Diana. Leaving her parents and boyfriend behind in Ireland, she never expected to be accidentally kidnapped and mistaken for Diana Flanagan.

Taking the bait, Dante knows the Irish beauty tied to the chair before him isn't Flanagan's daughter. Dante doesn't care. He's keeping her, even though he knows she's going to be nothing but trouble.
