He’s cold, controlled, and completely off-limits. But the more I try to keep my distance, the more impossible he becomes to ignore.

I need this job.

Not for ambition or pride—but because my father’s medical bills don’t pay themselves, and I stopped believing in safety nets a long time ago.

Becoming assistant to Roman King—billionaire CEO, untouchable powerhouse, and emotionally walled-off—isn’t a dream. It’s survival.

He thinks I’m too young. Too soft. A risk he didn’t sign up for.

But I’ve spent my whole life being responsible, making the careful choice.

And working for Roman? It’s the first time I’ve ever felt reckless.

Because when his gaze lingers, when his control slips, something breaks open in both of us. Something messy. Something addictive. Something that could ruin us if we let it.

And the more I try to stay away from him, the more I wonder if playing it safe was ever really living at all.

Guarded King is a full-length, spicy, slow-burn, billionaire boss/assistant romance with mutual yearning, a dirty-talking hero, and a guaranteed happily ever after! It's the third and final book in the Empty Kingdom billionaire romance series, but can be listened to as a standalone.

As much as there was a bit of a journey for their happy ending it was so worth it. The hesitancy and fear that Roman displayed was so understandable but his feelings were so genuine and he fell so hard without even realising it. Chloe was all class and sweet but not a push over. I absolutely loved this .. the spice was 🥵 and the narration was excellent real genuine emotion that hit you right in the feels!

Swoon!!!
