Hidden Protector

Innocence is a virtue only when you can choose whom to share it with.

Devon

The moment I meet my bride-to-be I resign myself to eternal misery. She's already wearing a wedding dress and clearly spoken for, but I walk up to her anyway. How could I not? It might be my only chance to hear her voice. Then I learn the truth, and hope plants seeds I swear to cultivate into safety and love. I will stop at nothing to protect the woman I adore.

Emma

For the first time in my life, I have nothing of value but everything I need. I may not have a place to stay, a job, or any money, and I should probably find something to wear other than this wedding dress. But when a strange man approaches and offers help, I discover I have something better than all of that combined. For the first time in my life, I have the power to choose.

As Devon works to give Emma every reason to choose him, her hidden past returns to reclaim her future.

This spicy, age-gap, arranged marriage novella is set in a small mountain town and features a billionaire bartender and an innocent woman determined to escape her arranged marriage. While it is the second book in the Promises from the Heart Series, it can read as a standalone with NO Cliffhangers, NO Cheating, and a HEA.
