The Bodyguard's Deception

Previously published as part of the Claimed Among the Stars Anthology. Now extended with extra chapters and bonus epilogue! Abducted and offered as a prize in a twisted card game tournament, Cass's life has taken a serious turn for the worse. If only her gorgeous bodyguard wasn't just keeping her safe for her new lord and master. If only there was somewhere on a cruise ship she could run. Sharr is on a dangerous undercover mission for the Protectorate. His handler told him it would be difficult, but nothing could have prepared him for Cass. Help is on its way, but if anyone tries to lay a hand on her, Sharr might just burn his mission - and the entire cruise ship - down to keep her safe.
