Bodyguard for the Beauty Queen

Description

I’ve broken every promise I ever made to Hannah Grace Whittaker. But this time, the one I make might be the one that saves her life.

Seven years ago, I told her I’d marry her someday. Instead, I left her behind with a shattered heart—and walked away with a broken one of my own. Now, she’s in danger, and I’m the only one who can protect her. She doesn’t want me here, doesn’t want the memories, the pain, or the past we buried.

But I’ll take the hit if it means keeping her safe.

She draws a line between then and now, between protection and anything more. But with every glance, every accidental touch, the need to shield her is battling the deeper ache to have her again—to hold her like she still belongs to me.

I promised I’d never hurt her again.

Now I just need to prove I’m still the man who can keep that promise.

But if I can keep her safe… will she let me fight for her heart, too?
