Zavier “Cade” McCade, former Army Special Forces and creator of Custos Securities, finds himself in a situation he never thought he'd be in - he's fallen in love with Braden Cross, the gorgeous pastry chef he's guarding. Cade has lived his life as a protector: of his country, his family and friends, his clients, and now, the man with whom he's in love. He thrives in dangerous and stressful situations. But nothing could prepare him for Braden's decision to put himself in danger.
After a vicious attack from his stalker leaves Braden fighting for his life, Cade will stop at nothing to see the man responsible punished. Time passes, but Braden's attacker hasn't given up, and Cade's afraid he never will. As Cade and the most trusted members of Custos Securities track Braden's assailant, Braden struggles to rebuild his life and reestablish the fragile trust he and Cade had worked so hard to build. Braden knows if he's going to survive the chaos surrounding him, he's going to have to give Cade everything he has — mind, body, and soul.
More determined than ever to hunt down the man who nearly killed the love of his life, Cade will do everything in his power to ensure he and Braden will be able to live the life of their dreams with nothing and no one standing in their way.
Meanwhile, hidden just out of their reach, an increasingly deranged stalker watches...and waits.
Contains mature themes.
