Leese Phelps works for Body Armor, an elite security firm. His newest client is Catalina Nicholson, a woman whose small stature hides fierce determination. Leese knows getting involved with a client breaks every rule, but Catalina's fire draws him in despite the professional danger. Meanwhile, Ryanne Wade has sworn off relationships entirely. Then Jude Laurent walks through her bar's doors. The former army ranger carries deep scars from battle wounds and the loss of his wife and daughters to a drunk driver. Ryanne makes it her mission to bring light back into his world, even as she fights her growing attraction. Across town, ex-convict turned bodyguard Quasar Patterson spots Dr. Randi Fuller at a crime scene. The renowned psychic investigator can predict threats to others but remains blind to her own peril. When gang violence puts Randi in the crosshairs, Quasar appoints himself her protector. The closer he gets, the more he realizes he wants to guard more than just her safety. Three couples discover that the strongest armor cannot protect the heart.
