Light the Dark: A Steamy Protector Romance

By Leo Heine

One lighthouse. One woman on the run. One man who will burn the world down before he lets anyone take her from him again. Orion never meant to stay. She came to the storm-lashed Scottish coast to disappear, not to fall for the six-foot-plus of growly, overprotective muscle who's been her shadow since the night he caught her in his arms and refused to let go. Cassian Rhodes is everything she swore she didn't want: dangerous, dominant, and looking at her like she's the only light he's ever needed. But every touch lingers too long. Every argument ends with them closer than before. Every night in that ancient lighthouse, the line between protector and lover blurs until it's gone completely. He says he's keeping her safe.
She knows he's keeping her-period.
When the past comes roaring back with guns, lies, and a price on her head, hiding isn't an option anymore. Now it's them against the world, and Cassian has one rule: touch what's his and you don't walk away. She can fight the fall all she wants, but some fires don't destroy.
Some fires just show you what home looks like. Explicit, heart-pounding, possessive as hell. A standalone military protector romance with no cheating, no cliffhanger, and a hard-won, swoony happily-ever-after that will leave you breathless and begging for more.
