Growing up in a group home with my two brothers taught me one lesson early: if you want someone safe, you protect them yourself.
Back then, it was the three of us against the world. These days, we run one of the most successful security companies in the world together. When my best friend asks me to provide security for his engagement party at a local restaurant, I expect an easy assignment.
Instead, I meet Ruby Ward. Just like that, I find myself distracted by a woman who's beautiful, stubborn, impossible to predict, and completely unimpressed by me.
Ruby has a way of slipping past every defense I've spent years building. She challenges me, makes me laugh, and somehow turns every encounter into the best part of my day.
Before long, I'm looking for her the moment I walk into a room, finding excuses to see her again, and making sure she gets home safely—even when she insists she doesn't need my help.
The problem?
I've spent my entire life believing my brothers were the only family I'd ever need.
But Ruby changes everything.
The more time I spend with her, the more I find myself wanting things I never thought mattered—a home filled with laughter, a family of my own, and a future that includes more than work.
Not because I've suddenly changed my mind, but because for the first time in my life, there's someone I can't imagine living without. Somewhere between our first meeting and the countless moments that followed, Ruby stopped being a distraction.
She became the woman I want beside me for the rest of my life.
Now all I have to do is convince her that the man who's never wanted forever is capable of giving it to her.
