After twenty years of service abroad, former U.S. Navy officer Duke comes home with little to show for it. Every business venture he tried failed, and with no other choice, he accepts a job offer from an old comrade. His new role? A bodyguard for a rising star in the entertainment industry.
Joanna Diaz-known to the public as Joey-is just beginning to make her mark as an actress. But there's one problem: Duke despises celebrities. To him, they're shallow, spoiled, and not worth his time. His only plan is to save enough money to start fresh with a new business, then walk away from the job-and from her.
What he doesn't expect is Joey's persistence. She refuses to let him slip out of her life so easily. And slowly, the man who thought his future was set finds himself tangled in the world he swore to avoid.
Because sometimes, the hardest battles aren't fought on foreign soil, but within the heart.
✨ "His life was carefully planned... until a superstar rewrote it."
