When Juliette's older brother makes an astounding claim to save his own skin, Juliette is escorted to the palace, along with other magically gifted young women who are being taken from their villages so the king can choose a bride. But Juliette's brother lied. She has no magic. She's a baker and a businesswoman, not a sorceress . . . and now she's trapped, facing death if she displeases the king. When a handsome tattooed man shows up and proposes a bargain, Juliette makes a deal with him out of desperation.

I nearly had it all: a successful football career, money flowing like a waterfall, and women dropping at my feet. I was living life to the max until some pretty harsh weather conditions ended my career and ruined the rest of my life. I turned into someone I didn’t know and didn’t like and became the laughingstock of my family. They all expected me to knock up a hooker. I don’t blame them. I made a lot of mistakes.

Aiden and his partners put their blood, sweat, and plenty of tears into making Fairford Manor a huge success, but owning a luxury resort hasn’t turned out quite as he expected. After the latest disaster, it’s time for a vacation from the Manor, to hopefully reset his life. But he can’t forget Olivia—especially once she’s at the gates having a full-blown panic attack. And what’s worse, she’s stunning and sweet and fragile.

I'm a bookworm; he's a bodyguard. I have trouble speaking up for myself; he's direct, brash even. But the more I get to know my new pen pal, the more I see beneath the former navy SEAL's tough exterior. He's a hero, and he's hurting. But he's also so much more than he gives himself credit for. It doesn't matter that we live on opposite sides of the country and have never laid eyes on each other. We talk every day, sometimes for hours. Our attraction is undeniable, and our growing connection is becoming impossible to ignore.
