One runaway bride.

Calling off the worst mistake of her life was the first step to reclaiming her future. Next is dealing with these unexpected feelings for the man who helped whisk her away. Daryl Raintree is broody, intense, and way too much man for her. But tell that to her hormones, who've decided the former rodeo star is the perfect antidote to the mess she's made of her life. All she has to do is find the nerve to take another chance on love.

One reluctant bodyguard.

Helping the woman nicknamed Princess escape her overbearing family wasn't in the job description. Neither was going on the run with her. But nothing about Amelia Westlake is turning out like he expected, including the unwanted attraction that's starting to drive him just a little crazy. Rich, insecure women aren't his style, but this one is definitely getting under his skin. And possibly into his guarded heart.

More danger than they ever expected.

But in the powerful world of money and politics, broken promises come with grave consequences. With the clock ticking, Daryl will have to do whatever it takes to keep Amelia from paying the ultimate price.
