Penny's ex didn't get the hint that it was over between them.
Unwilling to live in fear, she hires Ethan to protect her, but she didn't realize that meant allowing the alpha into her home.
Doubt begins to take hold until she discovers her ex is still stalking her. She's not going to let him dictate her life, so she pushes on as usual…
Until she's attacked and dragged into a waiting van.

Ethan was supposed to protect Penny, but he failed.
The chair he's tied to won't stop him, and neither will the laws placed on his dynamic. Her ex isn't going to survive long enough to regret his choices, but Penny's going into heat, and Ethan can't leave her to suffer alone.
How much is he going to pay for breaking the number one law governing alphas?

***This is book 2 of the Hired series but can be read as a standalone. The story is a slow-burn omegaverse bodyguard romance.***
