Protecting her is easy 

Resisting her is impossible 

After injury ends his career in the military, Archer Rossi is determined to prove himself as a civilian bodyguard. But when he botches his first assignment, his next job has to go well. Then he meets his beautiful new client, Zoey Lambert, and Archer realizes he’s in serious trouble… 

Zoey believes in romance so much she celebrates Valentine’s Day twice every year. And now she’s ready to find her own sweetheart. But her search gets complicated when her football-legend father hires a bodyguard to protect her from fame-hungry suitors. Having her chiseled bodyguard with her at all times makes finding love impossible…or could it be a lot closer than she thinks?
