When the prince of Agasileio is assigned a personal bodyguard, he's less than thrilled with the arrangement. He doesn't need someone's prying eyes watching him, waiting for him to make another mistake. And to make matters worse, his new bodyguard is the most obnoxious woman he's ever met.

The respected soldier isn't any happier with the idea. She feels most at home on the battlefield, where she's useful. She should be fighting for her kingdom, not trapped in a stuffy room in the castle, babysitting a grown man.

But everything changes when war reaches the capital. Suddenly, they are forced into a fight for survival, with only each other to rely on. And as their journey grows more complicated, so does their relationship.

With even darker days fast approaching, will this new bond give them the strength they so desperately need? Or put them in greater danger?
