Amelia Westlake is about to get married…to the wrong man! Suddenly, keeping her parents happy isn’t how she wants to spend the rest of her life. Standing up to them is impossible, though, so she goes into hiding instead. If only the bodyguard who goes with her wasn’t so intriguing. And thoughtful. And sexy.

Daryl Raintree always thought of Amelia as a fragile, timid mouse. But spending time with her on his parents’ horse ranch, he sees her blossoming into a woman finally discovering herself and her sexuality. Even knowing it can only end badly, neither of them can seem to stop the attraction they feel.

But not everyone is content to let Amelia ruin their plans. With the clock ticking, she’ll have to decide if she’s willing to give up everything she has in order to gain everything she’s ever wanted.
