The Guardian

Description

Some men are born to protect.
Others are forged in lies, blood, and sacrifice.

Maks Petrov has worn too many identities and buried too much of himself to know where the truth ends anymore. A master of deception who thrives in the shadows, he prefers to work alone—until a mission forces him to rely on someone who makes him want more than survival.

Eden Fontaine has always believed knowledge is power. But uncovering the truth about a ruthless enemy operating in the dark shatters everything she thought she understood about the world. Suddenly hunted, Eden is forced to trust the one man capable of keeping her alive—a lethal operative whose quiet intensity makes her feel both protected…and dangerously exposed.

Thrown together as the threat escalates, the pull between them ignites—slow-burning, consuming, and impossible to resist. Every secret Maks has kept threatens to surface. Every step closer to the truth puts Eden in greater danger. And as enemies close in, Maks realizes there is nothing he won’t destroy to keep her safe.

Because when the world turns against her, he will stand between Eden and the darkness—
even if it costs him everything he’s ever been.

New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Donna Grant delivers a riveting romantic suspense filled with deadly secrets, relentless danger, and a love forged in the shadows in the final book of her Sons of Texas series.
