Tyler Carter Jennings protects the Ravenhood and everyone connected to it. The former Marine carries his orders like armor, keeping the organization's secrets locked away alongside his own pain. His tactical training has prepared him for every threat except Larissa DiCicco. She belongs to one of the world's most powerful families, but that legacy became a prison when her brother vanished years ago. Now she needs Tyler's help to break free from the fate her family has planned for her. When they meet, both recognize the danger the other represents. Tyler sees through her carefully constructed facade while Larissa threatens every wall he has built. As they draw closer, sharing information becomes sharing vulnerabilities. Tyler must decide whether protecting the Ravenhood matters more than saving the woman who has claimed his heart. Their connection could destroy everything he has sworn to guard, but losing her might destroy him instead.
