Great tragedies create great pain. Sometimes, the pain is so much we get lost. But with time, we can find our way back, we just might need a helping hand. Reed Carter had worn a lot of faces: daughter, student, niece, sister, girlfriend, lover, wife... widow, orphan, broken survivor... wanderer... lost. Life had given then savagely ripped it all away. One terrible day had ended her entire world. So she wandered, aimlessly drifting from one place to another, on and on for years. She'd wandered so long she hardly knew who she was or where she belonged anymore. Perhaps it was fate, perhaps simply chance, but a storm and accident put her in the path of another who desperately needed to find peace after his own tragedy. Regardless of what you believe, we all know that sometimes life seems to throw two people together who need each other to help them both heal Perhaps these two are some of the lucky few; or will they find only more heartache and pain?

Hey...So I have this problem where I tend to over think things and living with my family in the middle of nowhere can drive one crazy. But how come I didn't think my way out of being a hostage? My kidnapper knocked me out in the most crude way possible, and there's a bit of a shocker on the whole 'how abductor's are supposed to look thing.' Well, I decide to fight my way to freedom (quite literally) and had just gotten away. Do you think I'll make it in the deep woods or will he catch me and discover a dilemma not many are known to man? Alex out.

Bodyguard X CEO. Age gap. Obsessive. Adult. They told me to protect her. Not to touch her. Not to want her. Not to feel anything for her. But from the moment she looked at me with those defiant, spoiled, fire-filled eyes-I knew I was already too far gone. Aliana Sterling. The heiress. The troublemaker. The living, breathing chaos I was assigned to keep safe. And the last woman I should ever look at the way I do. She's all pearls and poison. A walking contradiction wrapped in luxury and recklessness. And me? I've killed men for less than what she makes me feel. I've walked through warzones calmer than I am when another man touches her. I keep my distance. I play the role. The silent shadow, the bodyguard, the man who follows orders. But one day... I won't. One day, she'll push too far, smile too sweet, cry in a way I can't ignore-and that will be the day I stop pretending. Because she doesn't belong to the world. Not anymore. She belongs to me.
