Blurb:
In a future where man’s ability to
reproduce is severely compromised, humanity has adapted to survive.
Breeders—male and female—have become precious commodities, and they are
strictly guarded and subject to limitations.
Luca Walker is a breeder. Though he
knows what’s expected of him as the youngest son of the Northern Confederacy’s
Vice President, he’s held out against the pressures of an arranged marriage
because he longs to marry for love, not duty. But he’s been promised to Colonel
Liam Smith and there’s little he can do about it, no matter that Luca is
secretly in love with his bodyguard, Marcus Gray.
When Luca finds himself pregnant with
Marcus’s baby, Smith is furious and vows to take what is his—by force, if
necessary. Now Luca must fight for his life and the life of his unborn child…
as well as the love of Marcus and the happily ever after he’s always dreamed
of.

Excerpt:
Excerpt from Chapter Two:
Marcus rappelled off and
stepped onto the ground with a crunch of his boots. Pointing at the opening
with the askew ladder, he asked, “Don’t tell me you seriously considered
climbing down this way.”
Luca shrugged. “I’d have
preferred spontaneous levitation, but it didn’t happen.”
He yelped when Marcus put an
arm around his torso and lifted him to his feet, as if he weighed nothing.
“Hey!”
Marcus silenced him with a glare,
and Luca gritted his teeth while Marcus thumped dust off his clothes. “Your
father is livid.”
Luca swallowed. He’d expected
worried, maybe a bit mad, but livid? His father never got furious at him. Not
for long, anyway. Being the baby of the family had its perks. “Why?”
“Why? Seriously, Luca, you have to ask why?” Marcus patted Luca’s
behind more firmly than was strictly necessary.
Luca shifted, trying to get
away from Marcus’s arm. When that didn’t help, he slapped Marcus’s hands away
and stepped aside. He couldn’t think when he was so close to Marcus—when the
man touched him, he sent shivers up and down his spine. He ignored the glower
Marcus directed at him. “Yes, seriously. He knows I don’t want to marry Smith.
I don’t want anything to do with all that shit. I want to decide what I’m going
to do with my life.”
Marcus shook his head. “Smith
is a good man. My brother Kyle worked for him. He said he always treated his
people well. If you want I could try to get Kyle on the phone so you can talk
to him. That is, if I can get a hold on him. Trust me, you’ll be in good
hands.”
“You don’t get it! I don’t
want to be in good hands!”
“No?” Marcus raised an
eyebrow.
Luca huffed, a small smile
forming on his lips. “Well, yes, of course I want to be in good hands. But I
want someone to love me, and not just
for my ability to become pregnant. I want… you.”
Luca’s heart thundered in his
rib cage. There, he’d said it. The ball was in Marcus’s court. Sure, it had
only been one night, and Marcus’s reaction afterward hadn’t been promising, but
maybe he’d just been scared? Maybe he feared to lose his job? Nonetheless,
there was more going on between them, and they both knew it. That one night had
just been the last logical step. Luca regretted nothing.
For a moment Marcus seemed
startled, and there was a softness in his eyes that was solely reserved for
Luca. The softness vanished too quickly for Luca’s liking.
Instead, Luca was greeted
with Marcus’s usual, scrutinizing gaze. “You don’t want me, and you better
never mention this again. It was a mistake. Now get it out of your head and be
a good boy.”
