He was never meant to love her - only to keep her alive.
Darcy Jones was born under the weight of expectation - the President's daughter, the Republic's perfect symbol. But when a bombing threatens her father's rule, she becomes more than a daughter or a name - she becomes a weapon for peace. Her engagement to a foreign prince will save their nations from chaos.
At least, that's what the world believes.
Flynn Thomas knows the truth. He's her bodyguard - loyal, trained, and bound by an oath that forbids what his heart won't stop feeling. Every glance, every touch, every breath between them becomes another secret to protect.
Because loving her isn't allowed.
But wanting her has already become his greatest betrayal.
And when duty demands he stand behind her while she promises herself to another, both will learn that love isn't always freedom - sometimes, it's the heaviest chain of all.
