Description
Muscle-packed Jax Judge is the CEO of Judge Defense and Protection security firm in Nashville, Tennessee. Security has become the family's primary business, protecting not only wealthy clients, but also funding the extensive security needs for the Judge family and their cattle farm. Jax's father was murdered years ago on the very land he vowed to protect, but the killer won't stop until the remaining Judges have joined the patriarch in the afterlife. During the delivery of a warning message to the Judge brothers, a quirky, intelligent woman stumbles into the path of the murderer whose identify is still unknown. Now, the sole witness, Belle Vaughn is the latest target for a cunning killer, and she's become the most important person to the cold case. Though Belle is an independent, clever woman, her difficult past has dictated her life for so long, she's settled for second best, believing an awkward, introverted lifestyle is the key to her emotional peace. But, from the moment she meets Jax, he motivates Belle to step outside of her comfort zone and accept the parts of herself that she desperately and shamefully tries to hide. Dangerous circumstances and an undeniable interest keep the pair intertwined and off balance. They are forced to acknowledge more than the rising feelings between them. As Jax shields the reluctant, beautiful woman from a common enemy, he also struggles against the increasing desire to become more than her bodyguard. *** Mature Audiences Only: This book is intended for mature audiences only (18+ years).
