Security guard by day. Billionaire by night.

For sixteen years, Baltimore Cooley has been the trusted, lead security guard for Duval Bell. Baltimore’s job is simple. Protect Duval at all costs. Although down for the cause, Baltimore’s intentions aren’t exactly in favor of his late boss. His eyes have always been for the missus. When he senses danger at the hands of Duval, Baltimore takes it as nothing to protect the one he really holds dear to his heart. Madelyn Bell.

“Is it crazy to want someone to love me now?”

Madelyn Bell was the perfect wife to her late husband. She was nurturing, loving, and most of all, loyal. Despite her efforts, remaining loyal to a man like Duval proved to be her undoing. Betrayal cut her deep. So deep that healing is a foreign concept to her. A woman who once believed in the sanctity and power of love, Madelyn is now left to pick up the pieces of her life. A spark she isn’t searching for lights a sequence of events that lead her straight into the arms of a man she believes to be off limits. A man who works for her. A man she barely knows. A man ten years her junior.Baltimore is aware of Madelyn’s misgivings. However, none of those misgivings matter to him. He’s had a lock on his target for sixteen years. Nothing is going to stop him from showing Madelyn what love with him could be like.
