HAGGERTY SECURITY
Private security. Dangerous assignments. Complicated histories.
The men and women of Haggerty Security know how to handle threats. Love is another matter.
Michael Whittaker came back from the accident a stranger to himself — new face, new scar, new questions about everything he thought he was. He wasn’t looking for anything except quiet.
Ann Leland wasn’t looking to almost get hit by his car. Or to let a man she’d known for five minutes’ drive her somewhere safe. Or to find that the one person in Rochester who seemed to see her clearly was a billionaire with a protective streak she couldn’t decide whether to trust or resist.
Their chemistry is immediate. Their complications are real. Between Ann’s stalker ex with dangerous leverage and Michael’s instinct to handle every threat by force, what should be simple becomes the most honest fight either of them has ever had.
She doesn’t want to be saved. He can’t stop trying. And somewhere in the middle of that argument, they fall in love.
Whittaker’s Protection is a steamy, emotionally charged contemporary romance about two people learning that protection and partnership aren’t the same thing — until, finally, they are.
He left her once to keep her safe. Now someone is counting on him to do it again.
Four and a half years ago, Luke Haggerty accepted a classified assignment and left Emily James without saying goodbye. He believed secrecy would protect the woman he loved. Instead, it broke her heart—and left him carrying a regret that survived years of danger and captivity.
Now Luke has finally come home, scarred but alive, determined to earn a second chance.
Emily never stopped loving him. She also never forgave him. Letting Luke back into her life means risking the hard-won security she built without him. But when signs of corporate espionage surface inside Whittaker Electronics and Emily becomes the target of increasingly personal surveillance, keeping her distance from Luke is no longer an option.
Forced into the protection of Haggerty Security, they uncover a conspiracy reaching deep inside the company—and an enemy who knows exactly how Luke abandoned Emily the first time.
As the danger closes in, Luke must confront the guilt that has controlled him for years. Protecting Emily will require more than taking a bullet for her. He must trust his family, expose the traitor hiding inside Whittaker, and prove that loving Emily no longer means leaving her behind.
A wounded protector. The woman he never stopped loving. And a second chance someone is willing to kill to destroy.
