Descripción editorial
A princess bound by duty, the bodyguard risking everything to protect her, and the forbidden desire that could save—or doom—them both.
Princess Cordelia of Monrovia has always done her duty. Now, in the glittering world of Regency London, her final task is clear: secure a royal marriage and forget her own desires. But when a violent attack throws her into peril, Cordelia’s future, and her heart, fall into the hands of the last man she should want: General Clayton Elliott, a man haunted by unfinished threats.
Assigned as her bodyguard, Clayton suspects the danger swirling around Cordelia runs deeper than anyone dares to admit. Is the infamous Scepter group truly vanquished, or is their shadowy influence behind the deadly plot against the princess? As the threat closes in, their partnership turns into something impossible to resist. Forced into a desperate game of escape and deception, Cordelia and Clayton discover the only thing more dangerous than their enemies is their growing, undeniable passion.
Fans of Sarah MacLean, Elizabeth Hoyt, and Bridgerton won’t want to miss this adventurous, danger-filled Regency romance.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Harrington's un-put-downable sixth Lords of the Armory Regency romance (after A Remarkable Rogue) kicks off with Princess Cordelia of Monrovia traveling to London to seek a political marriage to a British duke. When a mysterious assailant holds a knife to Cordelia's throat, she is saved by General Clayton Elliott, who agrees to act as Cordelia's bodyguard. Following an explosion at an event attended by Cordelia, Clayton spirits her away from London, convinced that the attacks are related to the criminal organization known as Scepter's continued efforts to overthrow the British government. Unsure whom to trust, the pair must rely on each other as they investigate the attacks. Cordelia is drawn to the way Clayton treats her like an ordinary person, rather than a princess, while Clayton is enamored with Cordelia's kindness and strength. The difference in their stations should prevent them from being together, but their chemistry is undeniable. Uniting pulse-pounding mystery with emotionally charged forbidden romance, this may be Harrington's best yet.
