Mine to Protect is a friends to lovers, second chance at love, later in life romance between a single mother and the man she always secretly loved. Ignoring David Black was one of the hardest things to do, but where I come from, family comes first. Now my husband was dead and there was no one else I trusted to protect me or my boys except my ex-best friend. Too bad we didn’t know what I needed protection from. As the owner of Blackguard Security, it was my job to protect the people who hired me. But Kassandra Bennett was once my best friend. The one person I shared everything with. Protecting her and her children wasn’t just a job. It was personal. I would do anything to bring her closure about her husband’s suicide. Except every answer only brought more questions. Ones that weren’t easy to solve. Can Kassandra and David trust those in their lives or was someone out to stab them in the back?
