Nate

Nate Redhawk never expected to run into the woman he'd call his own. He definitely didn't expect to run into her on an op. Although, what did he expect considering his family history. Forced into a heinous form of debt repayment by her parents, Nate helps her to escape. When his own op goes sideways, leaving him with a bullet in his back and separated from his partner and brother, Mike, he finds himself making his way toward her. The only woman on his mind. The only person he needs to see. The person who needs his protection. If he can just stay alive to reach her, he knows that he can make her his. Harlow Judge had no idea what kinds of sick games her parents were playing with their lives. Including her own. Just when she thought her life would be over, a tall, dark stranger grips her arm and pulls her to safety. But her knight in shining armor didn't carry her away on the white charger. No. Instead, he sent her on her way with nothing except a first name. Nate. He found a way to get her to safety, secure a home for her, and even a guard dog. His final words were that she shouldn't approach strangers. But what's a girl supposed to do when a man is collapsed at the bottom of her stairs?
