When a disgraced heir becomes the target of a deadly conspiracy, his only hope is the cold blooded mercenary hired to protect him a man whose touch is as dangerous as the enemies closing in.
****
Julian Valerius has everything wealth, power, and a legacy and nothing. As the heir to the Valerius empire, he has spent his life living in a gilded cage, sheltered from the brutal reality of his family's dangerous business dealings. But when a shadow conspiracy begins to unravel from within his own household, Julian's world shatters, leaving him exposed to enemies he never knew existed.
Kaelen Thorne: a mercenary with ice in his veins and a reputation for being as ruthless as he is effective. Hired to be Julian's shadow, Kaelen is everything Julian fears imposing, controlled, and dangerously perceptive. As an unknown traitor moves within the estate, Julian and Kaelen are forced into a suffocating proximity where the lines between protector and predator blur.
In a world where every kiss could be a distraction and every heartbeat could be a death sentence, Julian must learn to trust the one man who has no business feeling anything at all. But as the conspiracy deepens in betrayal and bloodshed, Julian discovers a terrifying truth: the man protecting him might be the only thing standing between him and salvation or he might be the very weapon designed to destroy him.
