A forced-proximity military romantic suspense where an ex-Navy SEAL bodyguard falls for his best friend’s ex, the brilliant weapons historian he’s sworn to protect. When the ancient sword she’s authenticating hides a secret a shadowy order will kill to keep, a simple escort job becomes a race across England and France, with a slow-burn attraction neither of them planned for.
_______________
My name may be Arthur Penn, but I’m no king. The crown belongs to my father, along with the billions everyone assumes bought my SEAL trident and my command. I even founded a security company to prove I’m my own man. But when Dr. Gwen Lyons walks through my door, the only one I want to prove myself to is her.
Nobody knows ancient weapons like Gwen, so the FBI hired her to authenticate a seventh-century sword seized in a black-market raid. Her sources are in England, but the sword only leaves the States with protection.
Of course, Lancelot volunteers Round Table Security for the job. Gwen’s his ex, and I’ve got a sneaking suspicion he wants her back. From the moment she says hello, I’m not sure I want him to succeed.
So I take the job. We escort her to England, and the first chance I get, I send him off to chase a lead. Turns out, people have spent centuries ensuring the sword’s secret stays buried, and the second I’m alone with Gwen, they make their move.
It wouldn’t be the first time someone’s tried to bury her. One of her mentors stole her research, then let their field believe she’d traded her body for credit. She hid her face for years after that, and she refuses to hide anymore.
The longer we run, the closer we become, and the harder it is to remember she’s off-limits. The way she looks at me says she’s forgetting too. Now my job isn’t just to watch the sword, it’s to keep the woman I’m falling for alive long enough to uncover the truth. If I get her through this, the running ends, and she won’t need me anymore. But if she doesn’t need me—will she still want me?
