The Protector - A Bodyguard, Forbidden Romance

When duty clashes with desire, how far will she go to feel free?

Being the daughter of the POTUS isn’t as glamorous as people think. I’m an only child in a family where appearances mean everything, which can be…lonely. My father’s too busy running the country to notice I exist. And my mother’s as cruel as she is beautiful.

For months, I’ve been playing the dutiful daughter, smiling on cue, and walking a tightrope for the sake of my father’s image. But now that the inauguration is behind us and everyone’s too distracted to care, I’ve decided it’s my time to finally live my life. My time to do whatever—and whoever—I want before heading back to college in New York.

There’s only one person standing in my way. Zane Parker—tall, brooding, infuriatingly handsome, and always watching me. It’s his job is to keep me safe, but I haven’t been making it easy for him. I can tell he’s struggling, torn between wanting to throttle me for my insubordination and…something else. Something darker. Something that sends a shiver down my spine every time his gaze lingers just a little too long.

I’ve been testing his limits, but when circumstances force me to stay in D.C. longer than planned, Zane offers me something I never saw coming. An escape from the dull perfection of my life. All he asks in return is my obedience.

I should say no, because giving in could ruin us both. But submission has never felt so good.
