From USA Today Bestselling author SR Jones comes a fiery new protector, romantic suspense novel. No one can watch over her the way I can. Samuel I don’t take orders—I give them, so when I’m asked to guard a woman who likes to be in control, we clash from day one. She’s abrasive and yet compelling, and what starts as a mild attraction, explodes quickly into an inferno I should put out. Instead of pouring water on it, though, I pour gasoline on the fire of our desire and let the flames consume us. Someone wants to hurt her, and they should know—I’m a bringer of destruction. No one will harm this woman. She’s now mine to defend. Carolina They call him Reaperman. A military hero who protects those under his care with savage intent. When my father received threats against me, he hired the best. Tall, inked, and full of swagger, he’s normally the kind of guy I hate on sight. From the start, he’s too much, yet as we grow closer, he’s never enough. This man soon develops into an addiction for me. The danger, though, isn’t only on the outside; it’s inside too, and I need to deal with it, or I’ll ruin us before we even begin.
