An uninhibited politician’s daughter falls for her loyal bodyguard behind closed doors in this scandalous novel from the USA Today bestselling author of Bound Beneath His Pain and Tied to His Betrayal. As the chief of security for a prominent senator, Ryder Blackwood is stunned when an anonymous source sends him a compromising photo of his boss’s twenty-five-year-old daughter getting down and … twenty-five-year-old daughter getting down and dirty in an underground sex club. If it gets out, the media firestorm could ruin her father. More troubling for Ryder is how arousing he finds the whole situation. He’s known Hadley Winters since she was a kid. And now she’s the woman in all his most private fantasies.
Wild behavior helps Hadley get through those painful, lonely nights, but she’s been waiting a long time for a man like Ryder to protect her from herself. Ryder is raw. He’s real. And he makes her feel safe. Now that they’ve both become pawns in a blackmailer’s dangerous game, there’s more at stake than her father’s political career. As the intimate threats tear apart a tender new love, Hadley is forced to trust Ryder with her life—and her heart.

Every book in this series just gets better and better. Hadley & Ryder’s story is not only packed with sexual tension and forbidden romance but it is also jam packed with action and suspense. Figuring out who’s behind the leaks to the tabloids turns into a matter of live and death. There was never a dull moment. One might question what my complaint was? Not to disclose too much of the ending but it bothers me when certain milestones are met in a relationship but the MC don’t even say ILY. I cannot wait for Gabe’s book and how this all will turn out.
This was such an exciting story! I was pulled in right away to the push and pull between Ryder and Hadley and I loved the element of mystery involved. It was awesome and I was hooked!
When your a senators daughter you learn quickly that your every move is monitored, if not by your fathers personal security team, then by those who are out to disgrace your fathers good name in a public light. Hadley Winters has known for years that her every move is constantly being monitored, so she has always had to worry about appearances, and things, but somehow she has found a way to have a secret side, one that is certain to disgrace her family. It’s a side though that allows her to experience life a little on the uninhibited side, and gives her a sense of freedom that she craves from time to time. And, until now she has found a way to keep this side under-wraps… but someone has discovered her little secret and has decided to use her late night indulgences as a way to get to her father. Now she must either come clean with her father, or put her faith in the hands of the gorgeous man who protects her father day in and out…
Ryder Blackwood has watch Hadley Winters grow up into a graceful and beautiful woman, one that tests his limits everyday. Every time they are near one another he can feel her trying to lure him in, and as much as he wants to give into what is brewing between them he can’t, because it would cross lines he’s not comfortable crossing. But, when he receives a copy of a very compromising video of the good senators daughter, and she comes to him telling him she is in trouble, he knows he is going to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Even if it means crossing those lines…
From the moment I dived into this sexy little story I was hooked, it was suspenseful and engaging, and had me teetering on the edge of my seat desperate to see how it would all play out… and wow what a story it turned out to be!! The palpable chemistry between Hadley and Ryder spawned some sparks that had my tablet on the verge of melting, and me in dire need of a fan. Their story was a perfectly blended romance story full of passion, mystery, and heartfelt emotion, and I loved every single second that I spent with them! Highly recommend you meet these two, their story will keep you captivated long after the last page is turned!!
