What should you do when you accidentally call 911 and a deputy shows up at your apartment? Definitely NOT accuse him of being a stripper. It never fails that I always get into awkward situations like accusing the deputy at my front door of being a stripper and then asking if he’s going to arrest me when he shows up at school the next day…to pick up his nephew. Nate seems unamused by my antics, but when we start to work together, we’re forced to spend time with one another. Between getting stuck in a closet together, secret hallway meetings, and him taking care of me, I catch a glimpse of the man beneath the gruff exterior. And when he shows off his dimples, my heart flutters. But I need a man who can be fully open with me, and Nate's as guarded as the prison in Alcatraz. \*Guarded Deputy is a steamy and swoony small town romance with a sexy, broody deputy and a sassy teacher.
