Grant
I built my global security empire from nothing. Control and discipline are the only rules I live by. Some might call me 'intense'. I prefer 'meticulously prepared for every disaster imaginable.'
Growing up in a group home with my two brothers taught me the only lesson that mattered: never let anyone close enough to hurt you. As a CEO, I don't improvise. I plan. I command.
When I'm hired to provide security for an engagement party, I expect an easy job.
Instead, I meet a woman who treats my rules like optional suggestions. I'm used to being obeyed. Ruby clearly doesn't plan on doing that. Not even a little.
She tempts me like no one else ever has. Whenever we're together, my thoughts drift in dangerous directions. Wanting her becomes an obsession. I want to give her everything. But surrendering control means breaking my own rules. And I've never done that before.

I love my restaurant, my life, and finding the bright side of just about everything. Hosting my best friend's engagement party? Easy. Fun. Right up my alley.
What I'm not prepared for is Grant Clifford-and his many, many rules.
He's a fine specimen of a man. Unfortunately, he also comes with a massive stick lodged firmly up his gorgeous behind. Under that perfectly tailored suit is a man who desperately needs to loosen up. Preferably with me.
The closer I get, the more clearly I see the scars beneath his rigid exterior. And I want to heal them all. But how do I reach a man who refuses to let anyone in?
