The hulking teddy bear I met at a Christmas party last month is a bodyguard—a scorching hot single one—but I know better than to think he’d be interested in a curvy single mom like me.

It doesn’t matter that I can’t stop thinking about him. My only priority now is getting my life back on track after my ex. Even though said ex is determined to make things miserable for me… and when he crosses a line, suddenly I need a bodyguard. Luckily, I know a guy. And he’s more than willing to whisk me away to safety. The only problem is, the longer we spend in this remote Kentucky cabin, the harder it is to imagine what life looks like after this.

I’m positive I can keep my head on straight… until Troy shows me all the ways he’s interested in me. All the parts of me that I see as broken, he sees as beautiful. Something between us has me throwing logic out the window. He’s a free-floating bachelor, and about to leave the country for a new assignment. I’m a first-grade teacher with a three-year-old. In what universe does this make sense?

While it seems there’s no way forward for us, my heart is ready to do whatever it takes to make this fantasy become a reality. Even though my ex is dead-set on the opposite.

Broken Bodyguard is a high-heat, bodyguard romance and the first book in the Nightingales of Wall Street series. If you like poor boys turned good billionaires fighting to make their corner of the world a better place while falling for stubborn and sassy heroines, then you’ll love this series. Each book has a HEA and can be listened to as a stand-alone, though there is cumulative drama throughout the series.
