Publisher's Synopsis
Kate Adams has never found it difficult to keep a professional relationship with her clients . . . but then she's never had a client like Michael Maddox. From the moment she arrives in Charlotte, Kate is tongue-tied by the devastatingly gorgeous former Marine and intelligence genius turned multi-millionaire entrepreneur. Michael seems at first glance to be the perfect catch, except for one problem. He doesn't do relationships. And Kate doesn't do one-night stands. But as the tension mounts between them, Kate discovers she has larger problems--an untraceable stalker . . . and a dangerous past. When Michael offers his protection, Kate is grateful, and yet afraid. For as they grow closer, she realizes that Michael has his own secret past. And while he might save her life, he will surely break her heart.
