Your next favorite book
is waiting.
by Stacey Abrams
Sometimes the power of love ...
... can be the most seductive weapon of all.
A.J. Grayson has come a long way from adopted orphan to fast-rising executive at a cutting-edge technology firm. Now an anti-terrorist agency wants to use the revolutionary artificial intelligence system she developed to thwart a plot against Jafir's monarchy—and handsome, dynamic Damon Toca, the region's newly crowned king.
In six short months, Damon has gone from gallery owner to controversial politician. When his cabinet hires A.J. Grayson—without his consent—he gets ready for a battle. Expecting a computer geek, and skeptical of A.J.'s highly touted secret invention, he is stunned to find a strong-minded beauty who arouses much more than his suspicions. But someone in his inner circle is in league with a treacherous adversary who threatens his throne, his nation's tenuous peace ... and his future with a woman he'll risk everything to have and to hold.
"A major overhaul would be needed for this rerelease to appeal to modern romance readers." —Kirkus Reviews
