Given my ladies' man reputation, most people wouldn't think of me as romantic. I'm tough. I can be gruff. A hard ass. I know being a Captain with the Gainesville Police Department has probably gotten me more than a few dates. Truthfully, all I've ever wanted is to settle down. I've just never found the right woman to do it with. Until Mariah Marie comes into my life. She's enchanting. Beautiful. Sweet. Intelligent. Fierce. She has a wicked sense of humor, and a tantalizing way with words. Her popularity as a romance author has grown exponentially in a very short period of time. Wherever she graces with her presence, a call for service is sure to follow. Calls I usually assign myself to. I don't trust anyone else to keep the girl I'm falling in love with safe. When the innocent adoration of one of her fans becomes sinister, I'll do whatever it takes to protect my girl. Suddenly, we're both thrust into a dangerous world that threatens to destroy us. A world I don't know either of us will make it out of alive. ~ This book is steamy cop romance with heavily detailed mental health themes and life-threatening moments that may not be suitable for all readers. ~
