The Silent Obsession: Love in the shadows
Grace Miller is used to living under a microscope. As the daughter of a powerful and overprotective businessman, her life is a carefully controlled balancing act-no dating, no freedom, and no privacy. But on her birthday, things take a turn when her father assigns her a new bodyguard: Killian Ashford-a stoic, brooding man with a mysterious past, hidden beneath a tailored suit and a full-sleeve tattoo.
Killian isn't here to protect Grace out of kindness. A mob boss with ice in his veins, he's only taken this job to hunt down a dangerous enemy hiding among the Millers' staff. Becoming Grace's shadow is supposed to be a convenient cover-stay close, keep her safe, eliminate the target, and disappear without a trace.
But Grace is anything but convenient. Independent, sarcastic, and too smart for her own good, she has no patience for Killian's silent, intimidating demeanor. She can't stand being followed, hates being told what to do, and refuses to let anyone control her-not even the grumpy bodyguard she didn't ask for.
The more time Killian spends by Grace's side, the harder it becomes to stay focused on his mission. Grace isn't like the people in his world-there's no pretense, no schemes. Just honesty wrapped in sarcasm and eye-rolls. And while he finds her maddening, she also makes him feel something he thought he buried long ago.
As secrets unravel and enemies close in, Killian must decide whether Grace is just part of the mission-or someone worth protecting at all costs. But Grace is no damsel in distress, and she might just end up saving him instead.
