When there’s a kidnapping attempt on Kresley's life, she's forced to return home from abroad to finish college. She just never expected to get stuck with a pompous, know-it-all bodyguard who watches her every move with nothing but disdain. One whose good looks don’t soften the cold, impenetrable wall he wears like armor. Tristan prides himself on being a professional and taking his job as a bodyguard seriously. But, nothing could prepare him for the high-maintenance, rich girl he's hired to protect. She’s got a smart mouth, is hell-bent on pushing his buttons, and doesn’t take the threats against her seriously. And despite the nightmares that plague her dreams, or the fact that he's the only one who knows about them, he's not there to befriend her. He's there to protect her.
