When a brutal terrorist attack destroys her eighteenth birthday party, three bodyguards are killed and the man she considered a father is left paralyzed. Ruby MacAlister - the sweet, innocent, fire-haired daughter of a Scottish Duke - is now the target of a dangerous organization that wants her dead.
To keep her safe, her father hires Shadow Protections: an elite team of former Navy SEALs.
Brock Reynolds is assigned as her Near Guard. Older. Battle-hardened. Strictly professional.
He was never supposed to notice the way her bright blue eyes fill with tears at night.
He was never supposed to feel anything when she curls into his arms after another nightmare.
And he was definitely never supposed to fall in love with the girl he's sworn to protect.
Trapped together inside a fortified Scottish estate, Ruby battles crushing survivor's guilt while Brock fights the one battle he can't win - his growing feelings for the eighteen-year-old princess he's guarding.
As danger closes in and lines begin to blur, both must decide how much they're willing to risk:
His career.
Her heart.
And the fragile safety they've found in each other.
A slow-burn, emotional bodyguard romance full of tension, healing, forbidden love, and the unbreakable bond of a SEAL team.
