Spain No Koshaku / Hara Title : SPANISH ARISTOCRAT, FORCED BRIDE (Harlequin Select)

[Machine Translation] At a costume party at the castle of her best friend's lover, Lily meets Tristan Romero, a wealthy Spanish marquis. Caught by his irresistible charm, they spend the night together in a tower on the outskirts of the castle, only to be coldly told that it was only a fleeting flirtation. Lily leaves the castle the next morning before he wakes up. A month and a half later, she finds herself unexpectedly pregnant. I will raise this child alone. But I don't want her to feel the same way I did when I was growing up without a father's love... Tristan's cold blue eyes penetrate Lily as if to mock her modest wish when she tells him of her pregnancy. The only condition for recognition is marriage - if you don't like it, I won't have anything to do with the child at all."
