Protecting Brianna by Olivia Michaels

Retired Navy SWCC (Swick) Brock “Badger” Jones has just left California to start a new job at Watchdog Protectors in Colorado when he ‘rescues’ a beautiful woman from a rushing stream—only to have her accuse him of trying to steal her fiddle. Brock is doing security for the upcoming music festival and Brianna is a tempting distraction from the grief of losing his best friend and teammate during a SpecOp meant to save a SEAL team.
All her life, Brianna has wanted one thing—to become a professional musician so she can escape the bad reputation her small town has given her. Two things stand in the way: her overprotective uncle who expects her to stay put and work in the family coffee shop, and her near-crippling fear of letting anyone watch her perform. When she sees a drop-dead gorgeous man walking off with her fiddle, she never dreams he’s the one who will give her the courage to pursue her musical ambitions.
Brianna has a shot at winning The Best New Artist contest at the local music festival. But one mysterious accident after another threatens to end her budding music career—and her life. Is one of the famous judges the target or is it Brianna herself?
With the help of Wolf, Caroline, and Tex, Brock must protect Brianna and win her heart. Or will the forces menacing the festival decide the music is over once and for all?
