Mr. Rothe by Lynn Hagen

Sometimes life threw you a curveball when you were least expecting it. One night while hanging out with my cousin, I saved a man from being hit by a speeding car. I’d shoved him out of the way with no regard to my own safety. Now he thought it was his job to keep me safe, to try and repay a debt I didn’t want him to repay. True, he was the most gorgeous man I’d ever met, but I soon found out just how scary his world was, and I wanted no part of it.

But Gabriel Rothe was an insistent man, used to getting his way. Without my knowledge, he had someone watching over me. Worse, I had some stranger stalking me, and I had no clue why. Maybe it was the guy who had tried to kill Gabe that night, but one thing was for certain. No matter how hard I tried, I was unable to resist his charms.
