When Ryder McAlistir comes across an unconscious girl while out on an assignment for his MC, he can't bring himself to leave her there. But that doesn't mean he is willing to offer her anything more than his protection.
Sage Ribbons has no idea how she ended up in the woods, bloodied and bruised. But one thing is for certain, she needs to accept Ryder's protection. Someone is after her and will stop at nothing to get her back.
However, the longer she stays with Ryder, the deeper she falls. Can she accept the fact that while he'll give his life for her, he'll never give her his heart?
