Bodyguard of the Heartbreak Prince

Syth's first night as bodyguard to the kingdom's most notorious prince collapses into tragedy, and the political upheaval that follows drives her on the run with the man she is supposed to protect.

Prince Vawn is a careless playboy, pretty and relentlessly teasing, yet hopeless at keeping himself alive.

Fleeing enemies and unsure whom to trust, they grow entangled beyond duty and travel with a sharp-witted, often irritating magic carpet.

Vawn is an artificient who paints special glyphs on fingernails so living energy can be shaped into magic, and without his gift neither he nor Syth will survive what lies ahead.

To reach safety and reclaim what has been taken, she must trust the prince with her potential magic and with something far more precious.
