They say the price of freedom is learning that you have nothing left to lose.
There was a time when I had it all. Money. Power. Love. And in the blink of an eye, it was gone.
Along the road to my new life, I have a chance meeting with Cecilia Abernathy. Born to greatness, this American princess is out of my league. That doesn’t mean I don’t see her for the woman she is behind the headlines. In a rare glimpse I see not only her outward beauty but her inner determination. I’m moved by her in ways I don’t allow myself to ponder.
Time passes and I’m moving forward, persevering beyond my loss, and making a new name for myself. And then I’m given an assignment.
One job.
One quest.
If I succeed, my kingdom will be at hand.
If I fail, there will be no more chances.
Men like me aren’t saviors, and that isn’t my assignment. My mission is to find the daughter of one of the most powerful men in New York, in the country, and maybe the world. Find her and deliver her to her family’s rival.
Cecilia Abernathy has been kidnapped. All I have to do is exchange her current hell for another. And then I can walk away and claim my reward.
Has my taste of freedom made me willing to sell my soul for a kingdom?
Find out the answer in KINGDOM COME, a dangerous forced-proximity stand-alone romance by New York Times bestselling author Aleatha Romig.

Excerpt:
The ceiling was silent, telling me that Cecilia was probably in bed. I envisioned her the way she looked when she came out of the bathroom wearing nothing more than a towel, her long hair wet and tangled. At first my gaze had gone to her lower arms and lower legs. It wasn’t because I wanted to see her injuries.
I didn’t.
My attention went to those areas because in that moment and time she was allowing me to see them.
I couldn’t explain that sensation; it was as if she trusted me with her pain.
Cecilia didn’t know me. She didn’t know that I wasn’t a trustworthy man. If I had been, my life would be different. I wouldn’t be traveling the world alone as a gun-for-hire or a mercenary. I wouldn’t have the Dellinger princess sleeping in the middle of nowhere and the mob boss of San Diego most likely on my trail.
As she stood in that bathroom doorway, I quickly refocused on her.
Her.
That one word had an all-inclusive meaning.
The all of her.
I wasn’t fixated on the towel or what it hid. I was obsessed with her—the entirety. Her fucking doe-like eyes resonated into my soul, brimming with emotion, dark and deep. If I stared long enough, I’d be sucked into their gravitational force, into a black hole.
I couldn’t let that happen.
One day I’d be delivering Cecilia to one coast or the other.
That eventual decision wasn’t debatable.
Getting close to her—emotionally or in any other way—wasn’t part of the plan and would only complicate matters.
