She always considered him the enemy.

Now it’s her job to protect him.

Security operative Meaghan Knight holds a grudge against tech billionaire Quinn Martinsson—she blames her brother’s breakdown on Quinn’s abandonment of him during their college years. When she’s assigned to be Quinn’s bodyguard, her hostility compels him to fire her. But when she foils an attack on his life, he realizes his mistake and insists on rehiring her, trying to ignore the fact that he’s never gotten over his college crush on Meaghan. And now, despite her animosity, Meaghan can’t deny her attraction to the tech titan. Can the two overcome their history to save Quinn from disaster?
