Man . . . Mercenary . . . Monarch

A mercenary discovers he is father to a child he never knew—and a member of a royal family!—in this classic romance.

John Colton had searched a lifetime for the sense of belonging he'd never had. And now a secret son signaled the end of his elusive pursuit.

But what of Laura Bishop, the sensitive beauty who'd also entered his world, penetrating his barriers with no more than a willingness to listen, to understand to warm his soul—and his bed?

Then his lover revealed her bombshell: He was a king's son, long denied his heritage, and she was in the royal employ. A one-time mercenary, John didn't trust—or love—easily. Dare he let down his guard to become all he'd been destined to be: father, lover, prince, husband?
