Protecting Sarina by Brenda Rothert

Sarina Ross likes her life ordered. A research scientist, she lives to search for cures that will save lives. And if she doesn’t have much of a life herself? Well, that’s par for the course for the introvert who prefers the company of dogs to people. Her life is just fine, albeit a little predictable, until it quite literally blows up in her face.

Ford Allen is a chameleon. He can be whatever a situation calls for, which makes him great at his work. Charming and outgoing are in his bag of tricks, but deep down, he’s a brooding man of few words who knows things always run smoother when he’s in charge.

When Ford ends up protecting Sarina from danger, they both realize she’s not such a wallflower after all. The fireworks between them are all verbal until one night, they explode into a physical connection neither of them have felt before. But if Ford can’t save Sarina from the people hunting her, he’ll lose the only woman he’s ever truly revealed himself to.
