I vowed protection at any cost–even if it’s from myself. ZoeOrphaned and thrust into adulthood, I bury myself in school work and keep my eyes trained on the prize.

Now, with law school and an uncertain future looming, I’m used to doing everything myself and pushing back against Liam’s stoic, overprotective resolve. Until I learn that the vanilla, cinnamon roll of a man I’ve known my whole life isn’t so vanilla after all.

Now, instead of infuriating me, his strict, commanding presence sends shivers down my spine. I soon realize his resistance was never about denying desire for him–it was about fulfilling a different kind of hunger.
