I didn’t want him to protect me.
I’m a cop, for goodness’ sake—I can handle myself.
But he’s adamant. And he’s my boss—the Chief of Police, Ryan Keller.
I can handle crazy ex-boyfriends, even when they happen to be his brother.
But he wants me close. Too close.
“Move in with me,” he says. “It’ll keep you safe.”
I don’t want him to be right.
I don’t want to feel excited when he looks at me, undressing me with his eyes.
I don’t want to make things easy on him.
