Protector of the Pride (Lions of Pride Island Book 3)

The third and final book in the Lions of Pride Island series!

Axel Hunt knows what's expected from him in life. Find a mate that's suitable to the oracle, mate her, and rule his country, ensuring peace. But all of that is turned upside down when curvy Lucy comes into his life, drawing his attention as never before. Only problem? She's his secretary. And despite his heart screaming 'mate', the oracle hasn't picked one for him yet.

Lucy has never planned to put down roots or settle down, but when she meets Axel Hunt, she realizes two things. First, he's hot and makes her feel all kinds of things she never expected. Second, he's hopeless with women and has no chance of winning over a mate when one is picked for him. With only a small ulterior motive, she proposes a win-win situation. Date her, just for pretend, and learn how to woo a woman.

But when a make believe relationship turns into real feelings on both sides, Axel and Lucy will have to figure out if there is any way to reconcile their love with the needs of a nation, and how they can possibly face the dangers lying in wait.
