The Way of a Tyrant

Because Jane desired a little mastery in her husband she turned down the gentle and accommodating Scott Kingsley, and had never regretted it. Now, four years later, she had come to work in Barbados, and in this beautiful, romantic Caribbean setting had met Scott again. But Scott was by no means the man Jane had once known. He was dictatorial and overbearing, contemptuous of women and cynical in his outlook on life—and he no longer had any desire to marry her. He was, in fact, every bit as masterful as Jane had once wanted him to be, and she lost no time in falling madly in love with him. But even had he shown any signs of returning her love—which he certainly didn't !—she had led him to believe she was now a married woman.
