Sydney Martinsonβs budget is so tight, it squeaksβand she couldnβt be happier. Her divorce from her controlling husband is final, and a Vegas hair stylist convention is the perfect place to cut loose. Yet she canβt quite shake the feeling sheβs being watched.
It took some doing, but Hadrianβs managed to slip away from his watchdog personal assistant for a weekend of well-deserved relaxation. Life as TVβs βPasta Princeβ comes with pressure, and so does his closely guarded secret. He doesnβt just rule the kitchen, heβs royalty with a capital Rβthird in line to the throne of Koros. And heβd like to keep it that way.
When he spots free-spirited, blue-haired Sydney tossing a coin into a Luxor fountain, he feels the punch in the gut that family lore says all Drake men feel when they meet their match. One weekend with her has him thinking about forever.
Until his assistant tracks him down with dreadful news. One cousin is dead, another is missing. Hadrian is the Crown Prince of Korosβthe last job in the world he ever wanted. Worse, he and Sydney are next in line on a killerβs list.
