Kindergarten teacher Anne Walker dreams of a family of her own. She’s been on lots of dates, but no one has met her stringent criteria of the perfect man—someone who is trustworthy, intelligent, protective, wants kids, loves cats, has a good sense of humor, and is sexy as hell.
When Anne foils a child abduction from the schoolyard, her life is threatened. KnightGuard Security assigns Killian Caswell to protect her.
Killian’s sole reliable family was the military. Haunted by memories of his abusive father and long-suffering mother, he can’t imagine making a commitment to anyone—until Anne challenges everything he believes about himself. He doesn’t want kids, hates cats, and doesn’t have a sense of humor, but he is protective, trustworthy, intelligent and easy on the eyes. Is that enough for her?
As their connection deepens, a sinister figure emerges and threatens their relationship. Can Killian shield Anne from the threat before they lose their chance at happiness?
