The only way to mend a broken heart is to risk destroying it completely.

After escaping an abusive relationship, Emily Taylor returns home, determined to rebuild her life. But when her over-protective brother insists on hiring his best friend's security firm, she's forced to deal with Jamie -- a disciplined, guarded protector who stirs up feelings she isn't ready to face.

Jamie Sheppard walked away from being a cop after a devastating loss. Channeling his pain into his own personal protection business might help him move on professionally, but it wasn't enough to heal his heart.

Then his best friend called--his sister was in trouble.

Emily's case was supposed to be treated like every other job, but she challenges Jamie's resolve to remain professional. Giving in to his new feelings would not only test his ability to do his job -- to protect the woman he loves -- it'd compromise a lifelong friendship.

When Emily comes home to find her worst nightmare standing in her kitchen, they're forced to confront their darkest fears.

The second book in the series, but can be read standalone, is a small town, forbidden love, friends to lovers, steamy closed door romantic suspense features a stoic bodyguard falling in love with his best friend's little sister, recovery after abuse, and finding love again after tragic loss. HEA guaranteed, but only after they conquer their biggest fears.
The intense action, and Emily's history, may not be for everyone. Use Read Sample to check the copyright page for content warnings.
