The Billionaire’s Bodyguard by Tamie Dearen

She’s stubborn and independent. He’s sworn to keep her safe. It’s a recipe for disaster…. or maybe love!

Mariah doesn’t want a bodyguard… especially not Mack, her brother’s super-hunky head of security. Just looking at him puts butterflies in her stomach. But she knows they could never be together.

When Mack shows up at the wedding rehearsal she’s attending, everyone thinks he’s her boyfriend. Hopefully she can ditch the man before he notices how he affects her.
Mack has sworn to keep his boss’ sister safe in light of the death threats against their family. His job is to keep her alive and bring her home to her family for Christmas. It’s only one woman… only one weekend. How hard can it be? But Mack has had the hots for Mariah since the day they met. Good thing his boss doesn’t know.

Mack’s plan is to keep watch from a distance. But when a case of mistaken identity forces Mack and Mariah to fake a relationship, Mack has a hard time hiding his attraction. Or keeping his mind on the job!
The more time Mariah spends with Mack, the more she’s drawn to him. But a man like Mack, hardened and tough from life’s circumstances, would never want to be with a woman like her who’s had an easy life. They have no hope for a future. Right?

Will Mack be able to keep Mariah safe even though her nearness short-circuits his brain?
Will Mariah’s stubbornness be the death of her?
