I never thought I’d see Makayla Pierson again. Then I was assigned to protect her. One week. No touching. Absolutely no sex. Just seven days of restraint... How hard can that be? When I walked away from Makayla ten years ago, I swore I’d never look back. So did she, after the haunting lie I told her… But it was the only way to keep her safe and as far away from me as possible. She’s better off without me. I don’t care if I’m broken without her. But years later, when I’m hired by her agent to act as her bodyguard, I can’t keep myself away, especially when I learn how much danger she's in. Now she’s mine for a week, and I’m not going to let anything happen to her. Even if she seems intent on making my life a living hell. She always did know how to hold a grudge. She doesn’t have to like me, she just has to follow every single one of my commands. There’s only one thing I’m not sure I can protect her from. Me. **This title was previously released as "Protector". I've added over ten thousand words, making Makayla and Jesse's story sexier, packed with more intensity... and did I mention sexier? Fans of the original story will fall in love all over again, guaranteed. Also, this is a totally SAFE, full length book with a happily ever after, no cheating, and plenty of steam. Two full-length bonus books are included as well.**

**My first ever traditionally published book, Anyone But Rich, is going live September 3rd. Don't miss it!!!** I'm a USA Today Bestselling Author and have written nearly a dozen top 50 amazon bestsellers, including four books that have hit the top 10! Despite all that, I'm still a nervous wreck before I release every new book and I still feel like I have so much more to learn about writing and publishing than I can even wrap my head around. I'm just beyond honored and humbled that so many readers have embraced me and found enjoyment in my words, because I can't think of any better opportunity than this. When I'm not writing and stressing about what I'm going to write, I'm trying to wrangle my two little girls who are 2 and a half and 1 and a half. When I'm not wrangling them, I'm trying to keep my husband in line. Writing and helping run the family aren't easy, but I'd never trade it for anything!
