As part of the elite Centurion Corporation team, military-
veteran-turned-mercenary
Gabriel Diaz is a natural defender. He’ll do anything to
ensure a mission is
successful. Anything but get emotionally invested—he
learned the hard way that can be
deadly. Easy bodyguard jobs in between the more challenging
missions are all he’s
interested in now.
Maylin Cheng is desperate and running out of time. Her
younger sister has gone missing
but no one seems to take her concern seriously. Her last
hope lies in asking an aloof
bodyguard for help. He dismisses her outright, but all that
changes when she is almost
killed in a not-so- accidental hit-and-run right before his
eyes.
As Maylin leans on Gabriel, she begins to rely on him for
more than just her safety.
But as their attraction grows, so does the danger
surrounding them. When the elaborate
web they’re trapped in unravels, Gabriel will do anything
to protect them. Even if that
means putting his heart in the crosshairs.
