Mature
In a family like the Warrens', you don't ask if danger will find you-- only when.

After a near-fatal shooting shatters her privileged world by leaving her powerful CEO father clinging to life, Naila Warren is thrust into a world of suspicion, secrets, and suffocating security, all under the constant watch of her new bodyguard, Aaron Stone. A man as impenetrable as his last name.

Aaron is everything Naila resents: controlled, distant, unreadable, and determined to keep her in line, no matter how hard she tries to defy him.

But as danger circles closer, through the pressure of old grudges and new threats, what began as a mutual fight for power slowly transforms into something dangerous and far more vulnerable than expected. 

In a city where loyalty is money and trust is a luxury, Naila must decide who she can rely on-- and how far she's willing to go to protect herself, her family, and the future she never asked for. Aaron, with secrets of his own, might be the only one who can help her untangle the truth... if she doesn't drive him away first.

PAUL I cheated on my fiancée. Sophie and I were building our future. In love, happy, peaceful. Then she found a lump in her breast and I made the worst choice: I numbed my fear by sleeping with someone else. My worst mistake and my biggest regret. Now I see Sophie around town with him. She's radiant and laughing with people who actually show up. I'm trying to learn how to be a man who does. If she lets me, I'll spend the rest of my life proving I can choose her when it's hardest. If she lets me... SOPHIE I thought the promise was in sickness and in health. But he buried his fear in someone else. On the same night, I walked into a bookstore and meet the gentle giant owner who invites me to his book club full of misfits. I'm laughing again, I smile more than I ever have, I heal my heart. My ex says he can learn to stay, but my bookstore owner keeps showing up like it's as easy as breathing. I don't know what the future holds; I don't know if I'll win this battle against cancer, but I do know I'm done wasting time on people that love only when it's easy. CALLUM She came in to Rivers & Rhodes Bookstore and asked for books with happy endings only. I gave her a recommendation, an invitation, and an offer of friendship. Now, this beautiful brave woman is completely under my skin. I'm not here to win a competition against him. I'm here because choosing someone, second by second, is the only way I understand love.
