Brandt finds himself captivated by Delilah, but he fights his attraction to her because of his tumultuous past. As danger closes in on them Brandt must let go of his emotional baggage in order to find love again.
Princess Delilah has been promised to another man since she was five years old. She is a strong, independent, woman who is very unhappy about her upcoming arranged marriage. As her attraction to Brandt grows she feels she must ignore her feelings. As they fight for their lives in the wild land of Africa, Delilah must decide if she will honor her fathers promise to wed a man she doesn’t even know, or if she will follow her heart and find love with Brandt.
Guarding The Princess was an action packed romance that kept me enthralled. Ms White has a flair for painting a beautiful, portrait, of the African landscape. I felt as if I was actually there with Brandt and Delilah. I highly recommend this wonderful book!
