He refuses to let it happen.
Someone put a contract on her life.
She doesn't know who.
She doesn't know why.
And she definitely didn't ask for protection.
But she got him anyway.
Rogue bodyguard Ronan Hale doesn't follow rules.
He breaks them.
Destroys them when necessary.
And when he finds out there's a hit out on Lena Cross, he makes one decision-
He's not letting her die.
Even if it means inserting himself into her life without permission.
Without trust.
Without boundaries.
Because Lena doesn't want protection.
And Ronan doesn't care.
What begins as resistance quickly turns into something far more dangerous-tension, control, and an attraction neither of them can afford.
Because the closer the threat gets, the closer they're forced together.
And Ronan isn't just protecting her anymore.
He's claiming her.
The Protector I Didn't Hire is a high-tension romantic suspense featuring a rogue bodyguard, enemies-to-lovers dynamic, and a hero who refuses to let her go.
Perfect for fans of:
- bodyguard romance
- assassin threat suspense
- protective alpha hero
- enemies to lovers
- forced proximity
