Description

She’s the wrong secret I should’ve left buried.

Jaci Linwood is unlike any woman I’ve ever known. 

Pint-sized and buttoned up, she’s enclosed in sky-high walls I can’t charm my way past. 

Giving up is not my MO. 

So when HEY, the security firm I co-own with my ex-military friends, gets tasked with finding out what she and her boss are doing at Pine Peaks Resort, I’m stoked to be the private investigator on the case.

Mysteries shroud their presence, but my investigation proves that they’re not merely vacationing. 

Something far more sinister lays at our doorstep and Jaci’s at the center of it. 

I should be doing my job...

But she becomes a fixation I can’t break, a craving that’s never satisfied, a need I don’t want to escape. 

She sees through my facade and challenges me, pushes me, unravels me.

Then I’m straddling two paths—doing my job or following my desire. 

The danger creeps closer, bearing down on her. 

I must protect her from those who’d cause her harm. 

And from my obsessed self...

She’s the wrong secret I should’ve left buried.

Jaci Linwood is unlike any woman I’ve ever known. 

Pint-sized and buttoned up, she’s enclosed in sky-high walls I can’t charm my way past. 

Giving up is...

This had the perfect mix of slow burn suspense chemistry building that I’d read the next one in the. Series

I thought it was good some parts could have been better.

Protect My Wrong Secret is a fast-paced romantic suspense that blends military-grade tension with magnetic chemistry. It follows Jaci, a mysterious woman with secrets buried deep, and a determined private investigator caught between his mission and his growing obsession with her. I liked how the story unraveled slowly, with just enough danger and intrigue to keep me guessing, but the real hook for me was the sizzling connection between the leads. If you're into romance with a side of mystery and some adrenaline-pumping action, this one hits the mark.

Listen—this book had me clutching my Kindle like it owed me answers! 🔥 The broody ex-military PI? Obsessed. The buttoned-up beauty with secrets? ICONIC. These two have so much tension I swear my screen steamed up. Toss in danger at a luxury resort, secret missions, and a slow-burn that turns into a full-on can’t-look-away firestorm, and you've got my kind of chaos. I was yelling at the pages in the best way. Highly recommend if you love your romance with a bodyguard, a backstory, and a whole lotta bite. 🕶️💣💋

Secrets, Sizzle & a Security Guy I’d Definitely Hire Twice

Protect My Wrong Secret is the perfect blend of suspense, slow-burn obsession, and off-the-charts chemistry that had me swooning, side-eying the shadows, and fully rooting for the bad idea that feels oh-so-right. 🔥🕵️‍♂️💋
