Pippa has spent her whole life behind gated walls and polite smiles—billionaire’s daughter, sweet, sheltered, untouched. She has no idea how close the danger has already gotten… or that the massive, scarred bodyguard now standing in her doorway has already decided she belongs to him.
Van was hired to keep her safe.
Not to memorize the sound of her soft breathing.
Not to imagine pinning those delicate wrists and wrecking every innocent inch of her.
But the second a real threat forces them into a safe house, the professional mask burns away. He backs her against the wall, cages her with his body, and delivers a vow in a voice like gravel and sin. He’s going to protect her and no one will ever get near her except him.
Pippa should demand her father fire him on the spot. Instead her pulse races and her thighs press together every time he calls her his good girl. Days of locked doors, constant shadowing, and filthy whispered promises turn the safe house into a pressure cooker. He watches her like a man starved. Touches her like he’s already earned the right.
Van knows the cost. One word from her father and his career is ash. One slip and the people hunting her could use his obsession against them both. He’s supposed to be her shield, not the man claiming her and planning a future she never asked for.
But Pippa is done being the untouched princess behind glass.
She wants the scarred monster who would kill for her and love her just as fiercely.
Now the only question left is how far Van will go to keep the girl he was paid to protect—and whether Pippa will still be able to walk away.
A steamy bodyguard romance packed with a possessive antihero, a sheltered virgin heroine, forced proximity, obsessive protection, filthy dirty talk, praise kink, daddy vibes, breeding, and an over-the-top man who turns a simple security detail into forever. Safe, filthy devotion and a guaranteed HEA.
Genre: Thriller
