THIS IS A PREORDER. THE BOOK WILL BE RELEASED ON DECEMBER 28, 2026. Two years ago, I lost everything—my fiancée, her son, and the future we were supposed to have. Since then, I’ve been nothing but a shadow of the man I used to be. Fueled by one thing: revenge. Then Lacy walks into my life. Beautiful. Successful. And hiding secrets of her own. My job is simple: protect her. Nothing more. But the closer I get, the harder it becomes to ignore the pull between us. She makes me want something I swore I’d never want again. A life. A future. Her. But I made a vow to destroy the man who stole my family from me, and I won’t let anything—or anyone—stand in my way. Until I discover the man I’ve been hunting is closer than I ever imagined. And now Lacy is in his crosshairs. I’ve already lost the people I loved most. I won’t lose her, too. I’ll burn down everything in my path before I let him take another person from me. A dark, emotionally charged bodyguard romance with obsession, revenge, forbidden desire, and a protective hero who would rather die than fail her.
