Michael Buchanan will need every bit of his extensive skill set when
he appoints himself as bodyguard to a woman determined not to need one
in this thrilling new novel from #1 New York Times bestselling author
Julie Garwood.
Grace Isabel MacKenna has a hundred things to do today. Killing someone
isn't one of them. It is supposed to be a quick visit to Boston for the
Buchanan anniversary party, then on to Scotland to collect an
inheritance. She checks into her hotel and then decides to go for a
brisk walk. But after getting lost, she ends up with a wounded man
stumbling into her arms--and his shooter coming after them both. When
she fires back in self-defense, she doesn't expect him to drop dead.
After Isabel endures an interrogation by police, she is free to go,
thanks to the Buchanans dispatching former Navy SEAL and now lawyer
Michael Buchanan to assist her.
Isabel knows she should be grateful for Michael's help, but since she's
harbored an extreme dislike for him for years, gratitude is difficult to
muster. Michael has appointed himself her de facto guardian, and she's
stuck with him despite their constant bickering and sizzling attraction.
Even when Isabel goes to Scotland to claim her inheritance, Michael
follows her--but he isn't the only thing she can't shake. Mysterious
threats against Isabel surface, and before they can deal with their
growing feelings for each other, Michael and Isabel must first survive.
