A former Russian mafia soldier is hired to protect a friendâs young daughter, but he knows heâll do more than keep her safeâheâll make her his. Forever. If she were to simply whisper my name, I would be at her feet, begging to touch what I shouldnât, taste what doesnât belong to me, run my hands along the sweet innocence she taunts me with. Penelope Justice is eighteen, old enough to graduate high school butâaccording to her parentsânot old enough to live without 24/7 security. Practice has made her an expert at ditching her bodyguards. One look at Ivan and she never wants to run again. Iâve been hired to protect her. I canât help but think that perhaps someone should have protected her from me. Ivan steals the breath right out of her lungs, something no boy has ever done. Then again, heâs far from a boy. This man, this man who looks like he could kill someone with the flick of a wrist, is everything. He is her future. I canât let her go and I wonât give her up. Iâve done bad things in my life, and I donât deserve her. But I canât do the honorable thing. Iâve never been noble, and Iâm not starting now.
