Protected by the SEAL (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798227876805)

A scarred, secretive ex-SEAL-my brother's best friend- vows to protect me. But trusting him with my life might cost me my heart.

I never thought I'd be running for my life, but here I am - on the doorstep of Rhett Mason, the grumpy, brooding ex-SEAL who happens to be my brother's best friend.

A recluse in the secluded mountains, he's off-limits-and from the look in his cold eyes, he knows it too. He's scarred inside and out, haunted by a past he won't talk about.

But when he hears why I'm here, something inside him snaps.

Rhett doesn't just promise to keep me safe; he declares that I'm his. His to protect. His to claim. His to love. And with every growled vow, every possessive touch, he makes me believe it.

In his arms, I feel safe for the first time in forever.

Rhett's hands feel like both salvation and sin, and with every touch, I fall deeper into his dangerous obsession.

But when the shadows of his past collide with the danger from mine, will his fierce protection be enough? Rhett is willing to fight for me, but what if the biggest battle is the one raging inside him?

Protected by the SEAL is a brother's best friend, military/bodyguard, mountain man romance set in a small town that's packed with explosive chemistry, scorching passion, and a possessive ex-SEAL who's ready to fight the world to claim his woman in every way.
