The Maiden and the Steel Guardian: A Bodyguard Fantasy Romance (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781088140062)

When hearts ignite, only destruction will follow...

They want me to be quiet. Afraid. And I'm through with giving it to them.

Invisibility is how Arella Kellener once survived. As a human servant at High Keep-the Inatian seat of power-she could go unnoticed. The less attention she received from those in higher places, the better.

But everything changed when Arella saw something she shouldn't. Now, she has a target on her back, hunted by a god-touched fae hellbent on eliminating his one loose end: her. A past dalliance taught her to keep her eyes from wandering beyond her means, and now, with her life on the line, that lesson holds even greater importance.

That is, until Orim Brennor, the devastatingly handsome fae male who smiles at her like she's the only woman in the realm, becomes her protector. Her guardian. Orim's made it his mission to keep her safe, and for the foreseeable future, he won't be leaving her side.

But if Arella abandons the safety of her silence and opens her heart, her life might not be the only one at stake.

The Maiden and the Steel Guardian is a short novel that should be read after A Shattered Kingdom of Steel, featuring bodyguard romance, mentor/mentee training sequences, a golden retriever hero, and a HFN, perfect for readers that enjoy fantasy romance/romantasy. There may be unanswered questions that lead into the next book in the series, and any cliffhangers pertain to the continuing plot, not the couple's love story.
