The Ambassador’s Daughter: His To Protect, His To Claim

Reads

In the heat of Cairo, the most dangerous threat isn't the political unrest—it’s the man standing right behind her. Eleanor Kensington is a masterpiece of British refinement: twenty two, sophisticated, and desperately rebellious. When her father is appointed the British Ambassador to Egypt, she expects a life of archives and opera houses. Instead, she gets a shadow. Malik Mansour is a ghost of the desert and a veteran of the trenches. A dual-citizen with a lethal reputation, he is hired with one specific mandate from the Ambassador: Protect her life, and protect her virtue. No man touches the "spare" of the Kensington legacy. But Malik isn't like the polite security detail of London. He is domineering, ruthless, and entirely unimpressed by Eleanor’s titles. To him, she’s a liability that needs to be disciplined. As the Egyptian sun sparks a volatile fire between them, the lines between protection and possession begin to blur. In a world where one wrong move could trigger a diplomatic disaster, Eleanor must decide: Is she a prisoner of her father’s rules, or is she ready to belong to the man who was paid to keep her at arm's length?
