Ever since witnessing the murder of her mother when she was a young teenager, Ruby Hammond has suffered with severe agoraphobia. When her father became too impatient with her condition, Ruby moved out and got her own apartment. She's lived alone, in complete isolation, for the past two years, never once having set foot outside her safe haven. Miguel Rodriguez is a professional bodyguard working for McIntyre Security, Inc. His boss has assigned him to assess Ruby's claims that someone is stalking her. Ruby's father insists her claims are all in her head. Miguel has been tasked with finding out the truth. Miguel moves in with Ruby as her 24/7 protection, and it doesn't take him long to confirm that her claims are valid. Someone in terrorizing her. And Miguel vows to find out who and stop him. And maybe, if he's lucky, he'll become more than just Ruby's bodyguard. Maybe he'll be her knight in shining armor and give her the lift she deserves. A slow burn, close proximity, multicultural romantic suspense... lots of feels, a swoonworthy hero, and a courageous heroine. HEA guaranteed. Never any cheating. Can be read standalone, but will be enjoyed more as part of the McIntyre Security Protectors series.
