“You want me to lose control? This is it.”

My job? Protect the business. My calling? Protect the girl.

I’m not just head of the security team, I’m the brain behind Starling Key, Florida’s biggest entertainment resort. Only nobody knows. Not even the man who owns it.

I’m obsessive, I’m meticulous, I’m a perfectionist.
I do not tolerate unprofessionalism.
If things aren’t done the way I want them to be, someone pays.
And with a past like mine, the cost is high.
When Tawny Graham crashes—literally—into the Key,

she threatens my grand plans.
She’s a stumbling, infuriating nightmare,
With a body that taunts me and eyes that haunt me.
And I can’t be distracted. Not when I’m so close.
Then I find out the real reason she’s here,
And that changes everything.

This enemies-to-lovers romance brings the heat to the Florida Keys against a backdrop of luxury and suspense.
