Hayley Monroe is in her early twenties, ambitious, creative-and a little too good at pretending she's fine. Landing a job as the new marketing and design manager at Quantalis Group, a high-profile company known for its work in economics, analysis, and branding, should be a fresh start. But on her very first day, a clumsy accident-starring a runaway plant and an untimely fall-throws her straight into the arms (and path) of someone completely unexpected.

Jaxon Sloan is the company's charming, easygoing security guard. Just a few years older, with a background in nursing, personal training, and a habit of taking random courses for fun, he's the kind of guy who gets along with everyone. Friendly, helpful, and always quick with a joke-he's used to being in control. But when Hayley stumbles-literally-into his life, she leaves more of an impression than she realizes.

She's embarrassed. He's intrigued.
     She tells herself she hopes they don't meet again.
     He secretly hopes they do.

As workdays pass, tension turns playful, teasing turns tender, and walls begin to crack. But behind Hayley's bright exterior hides a girl fighting silent battles-burnout, overthinking, and a darkness she's never let anyone see.
     Jaxon sees more than she realizes. And maybe, just maybe... he's exactly the kind of steady she never knew she needed.

The Security Guy is a slow-burn, emotional office romance about two people who collide by accident but discover something real-through chaos, banter, and the healing that comes from being truly seen.

[SEQUEL TO DAMAGE CONTROL] Four years elapsed since he shattered her life. Four years since he practically forced her to break something he never thought he had--a heart. Now, Nathaniel's new empire Phoenix Tech he created after giving up Creed Industries, is thriving more than ever, still awarding him the title of being the ruthless, heartless billionaire he was before who always gets what he wants. After traveling around the globe doing charity work to compensate for her father's selfish actions, Anastazi finds herself back in California, where she begins working for a nonprofit organization as the Nonprofit Project Coordinator after secretly donating the millions she saved up on her own over the years. But what happens when a certain successful tech company offers to provide the resources she needs to skyrocket her nonprofit to a new level, and in return, one nonprofit employee has to shadow the tech CEO for a few months? Will she be able to swallow her past after everything that has transpired and shadow the very same man she's spent the last four years avoiding? History has a funny way of repeating itself with secrets still tucked away waiting to be unleashed, but this time the passion is steamier, emotions intensified, attracting like magnets that were destined to meet up in the end. Is there really light at the end of the long dark tunnel, or is that an illusion they will both be forced to accept? *Sequel to Damage Control. Must read the first book.* ⚠️ [18+] Includes very mature content, cursing, and triggers, including talks about suicide. ⚠️
