Summary

What if no one really sees you?

What if you don’t want them to?

Ryder Jones typically spends her days and nights busting down doors to rescue innocent victims from a dangerous world most can't fathom. But when an injury puts her out of commission, her boss gives her a new and anxiety-provoking assignment: twenty-four-hour protection detail for a charming athlete with a target on his back.

Cole Matthews's sole focus is winning football games. That is, until a stalker threatens his life. But it's his sullen, highly trained blonde bodyguard—and new roommate—who's turning his regimented life upside down. As Cole and Ryder dig into who has a vendetta against him, their forced proximity leads to an undeniable attraction neither has experienced before.

A relationship would never work—Ryder operates in the dark, and Cole commands the spotlight. When their opposite worlds collide and the stalker closes in, Ryder must admit that Cole is more than an assignment. She'll do anything to protect him, even if it's from herself. But what if the one thing that needs rescuing . . . is her heart?

Contains mature themes.
