Mike is a royal guard - trained to follow orders, not feelings. But when the ruthless king tightens his grip on the kingdom, Mike is thrust into an unexpected journey that will test every oath he's ever sworn.
At his side are two men who couldn't be more different:
Prince William - his childhood friend, loyal and golden-hearted, bound by duty as much as Mike.
Kai - the sharp-tongued thief with rebel ties, who looks at him like he's something worth stealing.
The prince and the thief despise each other.
They both want him.
And Mike knows that no matter whom he chooses, someone's heart will break.
As rebellion sparks and secrets threaten to burn the kingdom to ash, love might be the most reckless danger of all - especially when you're caught between duty and desire.
