When Ellie Hammond finally catches the eye of Logan St. James—the impossibly brooding, sinfully attractive royal security guard who's been protecting her for years—she realizes her teenage crush might actually be mutual. But Logan's got ironclad rules about keeping things professional, and Ellie's determined to prove that some rules are made to be broken. What follows is a delicious slow-burn romance between a woman desperate to grow up and claim her own happily ever after, and a man who's been secretly guarding her heart all along. With witty banter, sizzling chemistry, and just the right amount of swoon-worthy moments, this is the kind of romance that makes you believe in second chances—and unexpected love.
