Sheldon and Alexis

When I come across a beautiful young woman who finds herself in the wrong place at the wrong time, I take matters into my own hands.

As a bodyguard to wealthy billionaires and the Larussio Crime Family, I've seen situations like this escalate time and time again.

When the criminal with a long past sets his sites on her, Alexis doesn't see the extent of the danger, until it's far too late.

But I'm not going to let anything happen to the wide-eyed innocent who takes my breath away and makes my heart pound with an excitement I've never known.

That woman speaks to my dark soul on a primal level, causing every protective and possessive instinct I have to kick in, far beyond what I've ever known.

The enemies think their deadly game is too perilous to overcome, but they are wrong. They will rue the day they went against one of the most ruthless protectors of them all.

I will keep Alexis safe, and she will be mine to love and cherish for all time.

Watch and see...

Nick and Allie

As a wealthy member of a security team, paid to protect billionaires and mafia men alike, I'm used to having anything or anyone I want.

Until I rescue a woman who takes my breath away in one moment with her beauty and leaves my head spinning in the next with that sassy little mouth.

Allie has perfected the art of keeping men at a distance, and I'm determined to break down the defenses she has so carefully constructed in the most delicious of ways.

But the criminals who endangered her closest friend are now after her, and my priorities are split.

They will be sorry they ever looked at the woman who belongs to one of the most ruthless protectors around.

Because I protect what's mine.

And Allie is no longer just another woman on a long list, but the one I plan to make my own for all time. Because in this elusive little game of the heart, I plan to win.

Wait and see...
