Lana Hart knows how to smile for the cameras. Hollywood's rising sweetheart has spent years perfecting her image—glamorous, untouchable, and always in control. But when a chilling stalker incident shatters the illusion of safety, Lana is forced to accept a level of protection she never wanted. Enter Reid Maddox—gruff, ex-military, and infuriatingly unreadable. Hired to keep her safe, Reid doesn't do charm. He follows orders, lives by rules, and refuses to get close. But Lana isn't just another assignment. She challenges him, rattles him, and makes him feel more than he should. As the threat escalates, so does the undeniable tension between them. Behind every glance and guarded touch lies a connection neither of them can ignore. But mixing duty with desire has consequences—especially when both are haunted by past mistakes and the risk of losing more than their hearts. Can a woman living in the spotlight trust the one man who hides from it? And when the danger turns real, will love be their greatest vulnerability—or the only thing strong enough to survive it?
