She was supposed to be safe. Aurora Lane is the mayor’s Marcus Cross. TITAN Shield’s top operative. Cold, dangerous, silent—and now assigned as her 24/7 personal bodyguard. He calls her "Princess." He keeps a full arm’s distance. He insists everything between them is "strictly professional." But every night, she hears him pacing outside her bedroom door. Every morning, she catches him watching her like she’s the only thing left worth protecting. When the threat escalates, he locks her down in a safe house where He saved her life once. But the way he looks at her now… feels far more dangerous than any bullet. Is he there to protect her heart—or steal it completely?
