When an unconventional new neighbor moves into an upscale gate community seeking refuge, she unwittingly stirs up trouble with the very security expert hired to protect her. The company's owner is drawn to the new neighbor's mysterious allure; when the dust settles, will he be torn between his duty to protect her or his irresistible connection that keeps his trauma at bay? Deidra:
I know I am probably not the best communicator, but my neighbor has me in a chokehold, not that he is strangling me or anything like that; I mean, like, I can't stop thinking about him after a minor, maybe major incident if you call barging into his home and accusing him of something he didn't do major. All I want to do is to take my research company public, but I am distracted by my devilish thoughts of the brooding ex-Marine neighbor. All of this is happening while I am running to be the HOA President of the neighborhood I had just moved into, and did I mention that I am also dodging death threats? Gavin:
Protecting people is what I do for a living, so when the quirky new neighbor accused me, a sophisticated lover of literature who happens to be a trained killer, of teaching my cat to steal her bikini, I was on high alert. Not only is the alluring, crafty neighbor a do-gooder, she is obviously on edge. The CEO's brazen personality doesn't scare me away like everyone in her wake; it draws me closer. I've embraced the elements of evil; that's what makes my company good at what we do, and that is why I can protect her. However, the way this Siren is pulling me in, who is going to protect me from her?
