A grumpy bodyguard with a strict no-nonsense rule. A spirited heiress who just can't keep out of trouble.
Ex-military bodyguard Ryder West thought he'd seen it all-until he's tasked with his toughest assignment yet: protecting Cora Valeur, the fiercely independent daughter of a tech billionaire. Cora's free-spirited charm and boundless energy drive him to the edge, but when a shadowy enemy emerges, Ryder finds himself breaking his one unbreakable rule: never fall for a client.
Cora Valeur has always lived life on her own terms, but as a series of chilling threats close in, she's forced to accept protection-only to find herself inexplicably drawn to her stoic, maddeningly composed bodyguard. Sparks fly, and with every new danger, resisting Ryder becomes increasingly impossible.
For readers who love quick wit, smoldering tension, and the irresistible pull of opposites, this steamy bodyguard romance proves that sometimes the best defense is letting someone in.
