The Protector

She hired him for protection. She never expected to fall for the man guarding her life-and stealing her heart.

Maya Sinclair is no stranger to chaos. After witnessing something she was never meant to see, she's forced to flee the life she's built and go into hiding. Her only hope? A private protection agency led by a man with secrets of his own.

Ryan Carter is ex-Special Forces, a brooding protector with a haunted past and a reputation for being untouchable-professionally and emotionally. Taking Maya's case should be simple: keep her safe, keep his distance, and keep his demons buried.

But Maya is anything but simple.

With every stolen glance, every whispered confession, their connection deepens. As danger closes in and the truth unravels, Maya and Ryan must face not only the threat hunting them-but the desire neither of them can deny.

The Protector is a steamy, slow-burn romantic suspense filled with forced proximity, emotional tension, and a bodyguard who would burn the world down to save the woman he swore to protect.

Perfect for fans of protective heroes, high-stakes romance, and heat that smolders long after the final page.
