Shadow Protocol:A Dark Bodyguard Romance

She was never supposed to be anything more than a job.

Elena Russo has spent her entire life behind glass watching a world she was never allowed to touch. As the only daughter of one of the city's most feared mafia bosses, freedom has always been the one thing money couldn't buy her. She doesn't need another guard. Another cage with better packaging.

Then Damien Cole walks through her door.

Ex-military. Quietly dangerous. A man of very few words and an unsettling amount of them about her, written in a notebook he never meant anyone to find.

He tells himself it's just another job.

He's lying.

As a coordinated threat closes in around Elena and the walls of her father's world begin to fracture, Damien makes a choice that has nothing to do with his contract and everything to do with the girl who pressed her hand to the glass and looked at the city like it was something she'd never been allowed to touch.

He was hired to protect her.

What he becomes is something her father never accounted for.

And something Elena never expected to want.

Some men guard you from the world. Others guard you from everyone including themselves.
