derailed her career plans and her life, Kate Kingston craves
independence and a vacation. Somewhere warm with sea breezes, sunshine,
sand...and no scary threats against her that have been showing up in her
dad’s office. Barefoot Bay is the perfect place for some serenity while
she studies and puts her life back together. But when she meets the
brooding wall of muscle her father hired to protect her, Kate feels her
hard won independence slipping away as fast as her resolve to avoid men
who wield power over her.

long time. Guarding a feisty attorney-to-be while pretending to be her
husband is not a bad way to live off the grid, hidden from the Russian
mobster who is hunting Alec with deadly intent. But Kate brings out a
tender side Alec doesn't understand, or believe he deserves, and he soon
realizes that keeping them both safe is only half the challenge.
Keeping his hands off her and his attraction under control will be every
bit as difficult in the close quarters of an exclusive resort.
When their make-believe honeymoon in paradise turns sensual,
complicated, and dangerous, Alec and Kate realize it’s not just their
lives that are in jeopardy, it’s their hearts. And they’ll have to
fight to the end to save each other…and their love. Views: 129
