Never Touch the Bodyguard's Wife

Her father's enemies want her dead. His solution is a husband. Ana Marlowe has a doctorate in marine biology and no interest in being anyone's insurance policy. Ronan Iyer has a reputation, a body count he won't discuss, and no interest in a wife. They marry in a registry office in Lisbon, sleep in separate bedrooms, and argue for a month about whether the balcony door should be open. Then a car bomb takes the front gate, and Ronan carries her a mile down the road without putting her down once. He lost a wife in Mumbai. She lost a fiancé to her own father's money. Somewhere between the two, they stop pretending. The man behind the threats is closer than either of them wants to believe — and once Ronan knows who it is, nothing about the marriage is arranged anymore.
