Dunmore Rising — Gia Dawn

Love is mightier than the sword. Demons of Dunmore, book 4. Sir Graham Dunmore is looking forward to competing in his first summer tournament-until he gets saddled with babysitting a prince in disguise, three fairy-godmothers he would much rather see fly back to where they came from, and a woman for a squire. Gone for years, Jiliana is now back in Westmyre, older, colder, with a lethal fighting skill that leaves him both impressed and intrigued. Jili doesn't recognize this sleek, well-trained man as the awkward friend from her youth. But seeing Graham again brings back painful memories of a brutal past. One that forces her to live a life of tight control, lest one slip unleash a deadly monster capable of hurting everyone in her path. Yet as Graham patiently teaches her the arts of love, Jili has a glimmer of hope that she can finally control the killer that lurks inside her-until a ninja assassin begins to stalk the tournament. With a heavy heart, she realizes Graham is going to need every skill she possesses to protect the prince-the very skills that could tear them apart forever.
