Lena Moore has a habit of making headlines for all the wrong reasons. Too many parties. Too many drinks. Too many nights ending with frantic phone calls that leave her father wondering if she’ll make it home safely. His solution? Hire the best bodyguard money can buy. Negan Smith is forty, intimidating as hell, and built like he could take down an army with his bare hands. He’s professional, disciplined, and has one job: keep Lena alive—even if she makes that job impossible. She thinks he’s overbearing. He thinks she’s a walking disaster. Between glamorous events, crowded clubs, cross-country business trips, and one stubborn millionaire’s daughter who refuses to follow a single security rule, the two are constantly at each other’s throats. But when someone starts watching Lena from the shadows, their constant bickering gives way to something neither of them expected. Because protecting her was supposed to be temporary. Falling for her was never part of the assignment.
