Two uncles from vastly different worlds. One orphaned child. Will a conspiracy that bridges an ocean somehow build a family, or will state secrets keep Eric and Dan apart forever?Eric is a genius. He's a professor of environmental studies at an Ivy League university, an inventor, and one of the most respected scientists in his field. He doesn't think about his birth family much, and the feeling is mutual - or he thinks it is, until a call from a local hospital throws his carefully ordered world into chaos. Dan has seen and done a lot in his time as an Army Ranger. Thrown into civilian life by an injury, he's happy to work for Five Star Security doing what he does best - until he gets a call from his hometown with devastating news. His beloved older brother, Chris, has been killed in a car accident, along with his bride, Selene. Custody of their amazing four-year-old daughter has been left not to Dan, with whom all three were close, but to Selene's younger half-brother, Eric - a man Dan has never met and who didn't bother showing up for the wedding. Dan is devastated. Finding Eric to be handsome and kind, if reserved, doesn't help. Selene was wonderful, but her whole family was a pack of vipers. Eric can't be any different, can he? It doesn't take long for Dan's boss to figure out why Selene and Chris would leave Ada in Eric's custody. Selene was a member of the royal family of Corvia, and Eric has managed to avoid the spotlight for the past decade and more. As the investigation into the car wreck shows it was no accident, Dan and Eric must join forces to keep their shared niece safe. But can they keep their hearts safe from each other - especially when old secrets come to light that threaten their newfound love?
