Remy Guidry doesn t do relationships. He tried the marriage thing once, back in Louisiana, and learned the hard way that all he really needs in life is a cold beer, some good friends, and the occasional hookup. His job as a bodyguard with McKay-Taggart gives him purpose and lovely perks, like access to Sanctum. The last thing he needs in his life is a woman with stars in her eyes and babies in her future.
Lisa Daley s life is going in the right direction. She has graduated from college after years of putting herself through school. She s got a new job at an accounting firm and she s finished her Sanctum training. Finally on her own and having fun, her life seems pretty perfect. Except she s lonely and the one man she wants won t give her a second look.
There is one other little glitch. Apparently, her new firm is really a front for the mob and now they want her dead. Assassins can really ruin a fun girls night out. Suddenly strapped to the very same six-foot-five-inch hunk of a bodyguard who makes her heart pound, Lisa can t decide if this situation is a blessing or a curse.
As the mob closes in, Remy takes his tempting new charge back to the safest place he knows his home in the bayou. Surrounded by his past, he can t help wondering if Lisa is his future. To answer that question, he just has to keep her alive.
