Could protecting her mean protecting the enemy?
As a former US Marine, Turquoise Guardian Ray Strong is no stranger to high-risk situations. But when he is assigned to protect Morgan Hooke—a single mother and daughter to the Apache who killed a mass gunman—Ray suspects there is more to his mission than meets the eye. Is Morgan an innocent bystander, or the keeper of her father’s secrets and blood money? Despite his better instincts, Ray feels a powerful attraction to Morgan. Motivated by love and the loss of his own parents and best friend, Ray will do anything to keep her out of the hands of unseen enemies.

This was what it must be like, he thought, to have a woman not just to sleep with but to hold.
The awkwardness eased and they sat there quietly. When she pushed away he felt the tug of regret.
“Sorry about that,” she said.
He wasn’t sorry, but how could he say so?
“That’s okay. Happens sometimes.” It never happened, actually.
She stared up at him and, bang, there it was again—that ache in his chest and the zing of attraction that crackled like the glass glaze Mrs. Yeager used on her white pots. Ray dropped his arm from her shoulder down to her waist.
“Oh,” she said. Morgan inched away and met the resistance of his arm as he tightened his hold.
“My daughter is in the other room,” she said.
That broke his concentration. His arm fell away and Morgan rose to her feet. She backed toward the door, pausing just inside the threshold with one hand on the doorknob, as if preparing to slam it shut and flee. It was the kind of chase he’d enjoy, but only if she would, too.
