An unlikely relationship is formed between a shy bodyguard and a powerful CEO.A group of student eco-activists attacks Malden Pharmaceuticals, endangering six people. One of the attackers, Gabriel Nolan, a naive young alpha hopelessly in love with the group’s leader, takes the fall. Branded as the scapegoat, he’s arrested and sent to jail.
Desperate, his father appeals to Malden’s CEO, begging for mercy. In a surprising twist, Gabriel is given a controversial chance to redeem himself. He will have to become the bodyguard of his greatest foe, Blue Lowen himself, the ruthless boss of Malden Pharmaceuticals.
Blue has a job for Gabriel. A dangerous one. The kind that could get him killed, especially since the CEO has no shortage of enemies... and Gabriel used to be one of them.
The irony isn’t lost on him. But he can’t say no. Now, he has to protect the man he once hated most.
