Protecting her is his job…falling for her is unexpected.
Carter Sharp…isn’t always, especially when he’s in the
presence of his sister’s friend, Mel. The sexy tattoo
artist’s spontaneous, reckless attitude clashes with his
‘by-the-book, never-cut-corners’ creed—the one that saved
his and his team’s lives on more than one occasion. His
D-Force days are over but working for one of his former
Delta brothers as a security expert/investigator has just
begun, and it’s just his luck to land an assignment to
secretly protect the artist.
Mel Richardson doesn’t want or need a man in her life—for
his safety. She couldn’t save her father or her brother, so
she refuses to let there be a third. But it’s totally safe
to secretly crush on her friend’s older brother, and even
harbor a fantasy or two of the hot, former military guy.
Turning a blemish into a work of art, plus rehoming animals
who survive the death of their owners are both emotionally
rewarding and the perfect distractions to her growing
attraction to Carter. Too bad his sister volunteers him to
help Mel with some recent technical difficulties.
The hot woman is strong enough to kick his butt if she
discovers he’s secretly assigned to protect her, but it’s
the soft, vulnerable side he discovers underneath her tough
persona that terrifies him. It makes her lethal enough to
cut through his defenses and melt his cold heart.
