Challenging a first impression takes courage; falling in love takes more.

Blake ~ In two months, I'd graduate with a law degree making my late mom proud. I couldn't wait to make a difference in the world - not with my millions but with hard work. I was living a charmed life until I opened an anonymous note threatening my life. As if midterms weren't stressful enough, I'd have to deal with an overbearing beast of a man disrupting my life.

AJ ~ I chose the role of protector (Army, bodyguard, PI) and channeled my anger for good. Refusing to end up like my father, I was committed to the bachelor lifestyle. But one look at Blake turned my world upside down. My life was uncomplicated - until I was assigned to protect the object of my desire.

Perceptions are challenged when AJ and Blake escape to a safe house. Just as spark start to fly, they're forced to make a decision that could separate them forever. Only a hero's courage can save them.
