Forbidden Prince — Victoria Pinder

Marcus Aussa is bound by duty to find a bride. The task should be easy enough for the handsome prince, but finding the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with is vastly different from what he's accustomed to. But when his oldest brother welcomes his new bride and her friend to Avce, Marcus thinks he may have found the perfect woman. When Renee Brown agrees to escort her best friend on a trip to Avce, she knows it will be the experience of a lifetime. Her theory proves true when she meets Marcus, the crown prince's handsome younger brother. What begins as innocent flirty turns into a whirlwind summer fling, and she's okay with that. But their short time together draws them closer than expected â€" so close that known assassin's target both. As the danger increases, Marcus' protective nature takes hold. Now, neither can imagine their lives without the other. When their time together comes to an end, will they welcome the distance or will they do whatever it takes to be together forever?
