Beneath the Assassin's Touch

A swashbuckling historical romance in which a pirate assassin becomes the reluctant protector of a baroness marked for death. Enemies-to-allies heat, high-seas adventure and forbidden attraction on the run across England.

The Safest Place Is In The Arms Of An Assassin.

When Viktor envisioned pulling the beautiful Baroness into his arms, he wanted a quick roll in the hay, an one-night dalliance like the lengthy list of ladies before her. Tossing her over his shoulder to escape her would-be assassins wasn’t what he had in mind, yet that’s exactly how she ended up in his arms the night they met. Now Viktor is stuck protecting the willful woman until they can solve the mystery of who wants her dead. He must use all his skills, as both pirate and assassin, to save her… and all his willpower to resist the growing feelings that threaten to pull him under.

Baroness Nora Aberdeen finds herself ripped from a life of luxury, dependent on the infuriating assassin to keep her alive. Unsure who to trust, she can’t deny the safety she feels by his side. Dragged through England to places she never imagined, Nora struggles to survive while battling the feelings the roguish pirate awakens within her.

Peril chases them every step of the way, and the closer they come to naming her enemy, the harder it becomes to tell which threat will ruin them first: the assassins on their trail, or the desire neither will admit.

Beneath the Assassin’s Touch is the second book in the Daggers of Desire series, a historical adventure romance, for readers who love roguish pirates, bodyguard romance, high-seas peril and enemies-to-lovers banter. Perfect for fans of Johanna Lindsey, Lisa Kleypas and Sabrina Jeffries.
