Can a good girl witch princess and a bad boy bodyguard fight their way from enemies to lovers and stop a killer?


Good girl Prys Bane is the ultimate witch princess-titled, rich, beautiful, and from the best royal bloodlines. But the STEM genius would rather hide with her statistics and crush on a forbidden bodyguard than marry a proper prince. Better to guarantee that no one discovers her true magic-powers more suited to a storybook villain than any princess.


Bad boy John Donovan has pretended to be a bodyguard while hiding his supernatural double agent status from everyone-even his own sisters who see him as the villain. Crushing on Prys seemed safe until he learns she's not only the witch magistrate investigating a murder where his sister is the chief suspect, but Prys is also the matchmaker hired to force him into an arranged marriage.


When John and Prys are pulled into a deadly mystery that comes closer and closer to the couple by the hour, they must work together. When Prys discovers John's kink, these enemies quickly become lovers whose passions ignite. Can this princess and her antihero find happily ever after or will the killer be a best friend whose betrayal neither can survive?
