Description

I gave her protection.

She gave me something I never wanted before-forever.

I used to do casual.

No strings. No complications. No one close enough to matter.

Then I find Faith Lancaster stranded on the side of the road-scared, stubborn, and dangerously beautiful.

One look and my instincts kick in.

Someone is after her.

And I'm not letting them get close.

Bringing her into my apartment is supposed to be temporary. Just until the threat passes. Just until she's safe.

But the longer she's under my roof, the harder it is to ignore the truth.

Faith isn't just the woman I'm protecting.

She's the woman I'm falling for.

She's hiding from a past that could destroy her while quietly building her candy business and trying to stay invisible. But the man hunting her isn't giving up-and now that she's with me, neither am I.

I used to want casual.

Now I want her.

And if anyone thinks they can take Faith from me...

They're about to learn exactly how dangerous a protective man can be.

Perfect for readers who love billionaire nightclub owners, protective alpha heroes, forced proximity and bodyguard vibes, women in danger, fierce touch-her-and-die energy, possessive heroes, steamy romance, and a guaranteed happily ever after.
