I’ve just discovered a stowaway on board, and I can’t believe who she is. A bloody princess? And the prim little woman won’t leave the boat, so I make an offer to scare her off—a no-strings fling. Only she says yes. I say no, and she promptly locks herself in my bedroom. I swear I’m dropping her off at the next port. She’s trouble wrapped in a pretty virginal package, and I know I shouldn’t touch. Emma I’m a runaway bride trying to make a clean escape. But when Jackson Walker discovers me hiding on his boat—after I get over the shock of stumbling upon a rock star’s hideaway—I immediately know he’s exactly what I need.
