Jordan is off-limits: not only is she my client's sister, she's ten years my junior. But that's not stopping me from making her mine...

I've protected more princesses, celebrities, and billionaires than I could shake a bulletproof vest at. I'm ready to move onto less dramatic pastures: becoming the CEO of my own protection company. Until the Fairchilds ask me to personally oversee their little sister Jordan, who they're desperate to reconnect with?and keep safe as she enters into their world.

I'd do anything for these guys ? so of course I say yes. Besides, I know the two most important rules of this biz: don't mount the ward, and never become emotionally involved. I'm positive this assignment will be the final slam dunk in my close protection resume...until I see her.

She's five foot nothing with gray eyes that put me in a chokehold. Barista by day, stripper by night, Pokemon hunter in-between. She can't even blink without making a few guys cream their briefs. I think I know what to expect from a fire-breathing brat like her, who pushes and pulls at every opportunity.

But it turns out, she's everything I didn't expect to need.

As my assignment turns into co-habitation and so much more, all the rules fly out the window. This love could destroy me, and the mission we're on could ruin both of our lives if it goes sideways. We're fighting for the fate of her brothers...and Jordan is prepared to pay the ultimate price to save her family.
