Guarded Truths - Jade Royal

She's a Savage...

Abigail

When the King gives you a mission, you complete it. But sometimes, even the simplest things are easy to screw up. I didn't expect a partner to accompany me, used to working on my own. Especially not one that would be my roommate, and so damn tempting. Forced proximity keeps us breathing desire-heavy air together, unable to hide from the chemistry. Making a mistake could lead to fatal repercussions affecting more than just my life, but is it preventable?

Aaron

I need to handle all possible legal matters as they surfaced in Cincinnati. Beyond that, the details were scarce. I was assured that once I arrived, the missing pieces would be filled in. In a split second, the dynamics change giving me a taste of a woman I'd considered off-limits. Attraction lowers my guard and distracts us from the assignment. Will we be able to do what we need to, or will we crash and burn?

This is the prequel in the Savage Kings Series, a Mafia Family Romance. It is a Dark Friends to Lovers, Interracial Work Romance.
