Suffer No Fools

After his daring rescue, it’s Emperor Hugo’s turn to save his bodyguards … from themselves.
Once a pawn in his own empire, Emperor Hugo must now learn to control his magic through its guiding emotions. However, he has never experienced fiery joy, and his sorrow fuels tears, not ice. His guards could be the key to unlocking his potential, but at what cost to their already tenuous relationship?
Pirates Stan and Tovey are newly assigned to protect the emperor. Together, they help Hugo control his magical urges, while Hugo helps them communicate their hearts’ desires. If they succeed, Hugo’s magic will be a much-needed advantage in their fight to reclaim the Empire. Their extraordinary but unintended connection may be what it takes to save the empire, or it could be their downfall.
