Publisher Description
He wants her…and he doesn’t care that she’s the enemy.
Chase “Zyron” Garrett left a bloody stint with Uncle Sam for the personal security business. His employment agreement forbids hookups with co-workers, which isn’t a problem—until Tessa Lawrence, the office secretary and single mom, is harassed by her vengeful ex-boyfriend. Zy is assigned to protect her, but the moment he meets the gorgeous blonde, those contractual restrictions tighten around him like a noose.
Tessa Lawrence is alone in the world…except for her newborn baby, and she’s determined to survive without a man. Then Zy walks through her door. Fiercely protective yet tender, he’s everything she wants in a man, lover, and father for her daughter. But he’s totally off-limits. If she falls, she’ll be fired.
When a teammate is captured and the enemy predicts their every move, it’s clear they’ve got a mole. The bosses task Zy with discovering their traitor, and all clues point to the woman he’s fast falling for. With danger lurking, he finds himself caught in a tangle of unquenched need and searing betrayal. Will their love be the greatest casualty of all?
**Stories in this series are told in a duet of two full-length novels. Each duet can be read as a standalone. Includes strong language, sexy times, alpha male attitude, and a guaranteed happily ever after. Enjoy!**

Book three is the Wicked & Devoted series and I could not wait to dive in and read.
This book has a lot going on and although not a particularly long book, Ms.Black certainly packed a lot in to it. Please be aware that this book is the first book about Chase “Zyron” Garrett and Tessa Lawrence so you have been warned and I for one cannot wait to see what is in store for them.
Thanks to an ex boyfriend who is harassing her, Zy is tasked with protecting the office secretary and that is when the complications start. Not only that, but there appears to be a “mole” in their organization and the clues point to Tessa who Zy is beginning to have feelings for. The attraction and chemistry sizzles between them and I hope that they can get the happily ever after they both deserve.
There were times that I was on the edge of my seat as the action heated up. All in all this was a captivating read with strong writing and characters who story you cannot help but become invested in.
