Everly retied the straps of the halter behind her neck as she looked out the window at the sun setting over the Caribbean. The room she’d been given had floor-to-ceiling windows looking over the sea in variegated blues. Every room in the modern stucco-and-glass house was equally as mesmerizing.

She tossed her hair back and surveyed the new fit in the mirror. Yes, better. The halter’s straps were positioned wide on the bodice, pulling her breasts up and together, just enough for them to plump at the lace and sequined edge. She turned, checking the back. The diamond of lace exposed her shoulders and teased the eye to the small of her back where it joined the skirt, a layer of sheer-covered satin.

She faced the mirror again and made a final adjustment to the thin satin trim around her waist. The bodice fitted intimately to her upper body. The skirt flowed sensually over the curve of her hips, shifted with her body as she moved and ended three inches above her knee, allowing a glimpse of her thighs.

She played with the skirt a little, swishing it around to make sure it sufficiently concealed her Tac Force blade strapped high on her left thigh.

Memories of her rough childhood clashed with Hix greeting Mirabella at the door. He dropped to one knee and scanned his daughter as if she were every bit the princess she appeared to be tonight. No one had ever looked at Everly like that. She’d never had a father in her life, and her mother was always too distracted or consumed with her own problems and emotions to see straight. And here Bella had two families fighting over her.

“Oh, wow,” Hix said, sliding his hands down her arms. His eyes danced with so much love, it made Everly’s stomach clench. “Baby, you look like an angel.”
