He's her father's best friend and she's his goddaughter, and their forbidden love becomes a thrilling escape they never knew they needed.
As Kendra's bodyguard and guardian, Julian Silver had one rule: keep her safe at all costs. But when the spark of forbidden desire ignites, rules are meant to be broken.
Kendra, vibrant and rebellious, was always a bit too much to handle, with a spirit that challenged every boundary Julian tried to set. Her father's best friend, and oh-so-tempting guardian, was supposed to be the fortress between her and the world's dangers. Instead, he became the one temptation she couldn't resist.
Their world turned upside down from the moment she dared to flirt with danger—and him. Julian, the embodiment of power and restraint, found his control slipping, undone by the fire in Kendra's eyes and the challenge in her smile.
The first look was accidental, a forbidden glimpse that promised trouble.
The second encounter was intentional, a spark that threatened to burn them both.
By the third clash, their fiery dance of desire and defiance had them teetering on the edge of a precipice too tempting to resist.
And by the time they realized they were falling, it was too late to stop. The protector and his charge, embroiled in a passionate, clandestine affair, found themselves spiraling into a world where love was the most dangerous risk of all.
In this game of love and protection, it's not just their hearts on the line, but everything they thought they knew about duty, desire, and destiny.
