One witness. One protector. One line they're not supposed to cross.
Monica never expected to need a bodyguard, but after witnessing a cartel execution, her life depends on US Marshal Matthew Cole. Isolated together in a Nevada safe house, the German-born marshal with the devastating accent becomes her anchor against fear, and her greatest temptation.
Matthew has protected dozens of witnesses, but none have tested his legendary control like Monica. Her courage awakens something primal in him, something that has nothing to do with duty and everything to do with the woman who fits perfectly in his arms.
When the nights grow cold and the nightmares won't stop, they discover that some protection requires getting very, very close.
