“Aphrodite crossed me off her list a long time ago,” he replied.
Former assassin Ambrose Duchamp believes he is unworthy of love. He lives a quiet, secluded life in the Caribbean and keeps his heart locked in a steel box. When his friend warns him Aphrodite will find him no matter where he hides, Ambrose scoffs at the idea of the goddess of love taking an interest in his affairs. When a frightened governess asks him to protect her Ambrose faces a new challenge: keeping cupid’s arrow from piercing his heart.
Juliet is a woman alone in a brutal world. As a fugitive, she takes a position as a governess on a tropical island far from England’s shores. As her enemy pursues her, she has one hope of surviving his wicked plans: a dark, imposing man rumored to be the incarnation of the Grim Reaper. When Mr. Duchamp suggests a pretend courtship to protect her reputation, Juliet begins to wish their cover story is not a ruse. How can such a dark and deadly man be so charming, and so vexing?
Set in the lush Caribbean in the early 19th century with sugar lords, sharks, dazzling sunsets and romantic beaches, the love story between an English governess and a deadly assassin brings historical romance to life.
Reluctant Heroes: Bold Men, Independent Women,
Finding True Love was Never in Their Plans!
