“When Logan Carter, an ex-military operative, is assigned as the personal bodyguard to Eleanor Sinclair, the elegant yet broken wife of ruthless billionaire Richard Sinclair, he expects another standard job. But nothing could prepare him for the dark secrets lurking behind the pristine walls of the Sinclair mansion. Eleanor isn't just a trophy wife; she's a prisoner in a loveless, abusive marriage. As Logan watches over her, he begins to see the bruises she hides, the pain in her eyes, and the silent screams she swallows. The more he learns, the more he realizes that his mission isn't just to protect her-it's to save her. And in doing so, he finds himself falling for the one woman he can't have. But love isn't enough. To free Eleanor, Logan will have to risk everything-even his own life.”
