She's a forbidden temptation.

Her mother's sacrifice drove Anaya Bishop to make something of herself. Now a successful engineer, she won't let anything jeopardize everything she's worked for, especially the man who harassed her in the past. To make sure he keeps his distance, she hires a bodyguard to act as her plus one for a critical business trip. Donovan is skilled, experienced, and every bit as sexy as he is remote. Though the heat between them is off the charts, he remains determined to keep her at arm's length. But the threat stalking her is about to turn deadly—and Donovan is the only one who can stop it.

But giving into desire could cost them everything.

Haunted by a past failure that cost an innocent life, security specialist Donovan Myers took a job with Crimson Point Security for a fresh start. However, this new assignment soon turns complicated. Not only is he dangerously attracted to Anaya, it's becoming clear that whoever is targeting her is out for blood. The rules of his job are non-negotiable—as his client she's strictly off-limits. But the fire between them burns too hot, making it impossible for him to walk away. And when the killer finally strikes, Donovan will have to confront his demons head on...with only one chance to save them both.
