About this ebook

In Bride Claimed, The Bridal Series Book 1, we meet billionaire Alexander Sinclair who might have done the wrong thing to claim the delectable Penelope Winters as his bride.

Penelope was not having a good week.

First her newly minted ‘Ex’husband (she was going to get a t-shirt made) decided to drive off into the sunset (literally) and left her in a pile of shit (figuratively). She’d barely put some dirt on it (actually), when the most gorgeous man on planet Earth showed up and opened his stupid mouth. Alexander Sinclair—billionaire extraordinaire, real estate mogul, one part of Rogues of Manhattan trio, and all parts wrong for her!

“I need a wife . . . and I don’t do pretend, Penelope.”

Alex was not having a good week (either).

First, his star employee took millions of investors’ money to his grave, leaving Alex to deal with a bloody mess. It got worse (liar!) when he went hunting for the wicked Mrs. Carver, but found a delicious little fire-cracker instead. Alex took one look at Penny and bid adieu to his brain (the one in his head at any rate!). How else could he explain his insane attraction for this sinfully-sexy-potentially-deceptive-caveman-invoking woman?

Sparks fly as the Penny and Alex clash in a battle of wills . . . and tangle of limbs (you’ll see). But the Houdini embezzler is still at large and Alex will stop at nothing to keep Penny safe in his arms . . . as his claimed bride.

Editor’s Note: Bring out the popcorn Your week just got better!

Please Note: This book was previously published under my pen name, Linzi Basset, with the title, Claimed Bride.

About the author

"Isn't it a universal truth that it's our singular experiences and passion for whatever thing or things that mold us all into the individuals we become? Whether it's hidden in the depths of our soul or exposed for all to see?"

Sabel Simmons is a South African-born animal rights supporter with a poet's heart, and apart from writing unapologetic, steamy billionaire romance, she is also a bestselling fiction writer of suspense-filled dark romance books as Linzi Basset.

Across her pen names, Isabel James, Kimila Taylor, Shiloh Dean, Linzi Basset, and Sabel Simmons, she has proven to be quite the prolific writer, who has now been published far over a hundred times.

"I write from the inside out. My stories are both inside me and a part of me, so it can be either pleasurable to release them or painful to carve them out. I live every moment of every story I write. So, if you're looking for spicy and suspenseful, I'm your girl... woman... writer... you know what I mean!"

Sabel believes that by telling stories in her own voice, she can better share with her readers the essence of her being, her passionate nature, her motivations, and her wildest fantasies. She feels every touch as she writes, every kiss, every harsh word uttered, and this to her is the key to a never-ending love of writing.

Ultimately, all books by Sabel Simmons are about passion. To her, passion is the driving force of all emotion, whether it be lust, desire, hate, trust, or love. This is the underlying message contained in her books. Her advice: "Believe in the passions driving your desires; live them; enjoy them; and allow them to bring you happiness."
