Maurice (Bayou Brotherhood Protectors #9)

A priceless secret, a dash of danger, a recipe for trouble...

Pastry chef Amelie Aubert never imagined her time in Paris would follow her home. Years ago, she worked under a legendary chef whose family was rumored to know the fate of priceless artwork hidden during World War II. After his sudden death, dangerous people believe she now holds those secrets — and they’re willing to kill for them.

A protector with scars as deep as his secrets.

Maurice Boucher, a former Navy SEAL medically discharged after injuries ended his career and left him scarred inside and out, is determined to protect her. But as the hunt closes in and desire ignites, Maurice and Amelie must confront the shadows of their pasts — and outwit enemies who will stop at nothing to claim a fortune lost to history.
