In the midst of a devastating global economic crisis, hybrid immortal Victoria Bellwood remains untouchable. She owns the second-largest hotel franchise in the world and stands as the wealthiest woman of the 21st century. For many, Victoria is a symbol of tenacity, generosity, and kindness.
But behind closed doors, her empire is under attack. Anti-immortal hatred is steadily rising, fueled by her long-time rival, Samuel Kelly. With danger lurking at every corner, Victoria's forced to make a choice that goes against everything she believes in.
She must hire a bodyguard.
And then she encounters Albert Miller.
Owner of the world's most elite security firm, Albert is a no-nonsense army general with two hundred years of experience in combat and medicine. He's cold, demanding, and won't take no for an answer. The most controversial man of the era. Those who dare to challenge him may not live to tell the tale. The perfect man for the job.
And Albert needs her too. After ending his contract with her rival, Albert is looking for a new project to fill his eternal days. A project that could restore his reputation after those disastrous ten years with Samuel. Victoria's loving heart and gentle spirit are the perfect antidotes to the poison splattered on his company.
What begins as a strategic contract becomes something far deeper. Far more dangerous. Something neither of them expected.
