Contemporary RomanceBodyguard Jocelyn MacKenzie knew better than to mix business with pleasure – especially when her job involved shielding a client from danger. But Dr. Donovan Knight just happened to be the most heart-stoppingly gorgeous man she’d ever seen. It took all her training to resist responding to the bold, sexy look in his smoldering green eyes. Because she couldn’t afford to be distracted – not only to protect her latest client, but for the sake of her own heart… What had Donovan been thinking, hiring this stunning woman to be his round-the-clock bodyguard? While Jocelyn poked around his penthouse looking for clues, all he’d been able to think about was what she’d look like naked in his bed.

Chapter One
Here we go - trotting into someone else''s world again.
Jocelyn Mackenzie followed her client out of the mahogany- paneled elevator and across the marble vestibule to the double doors of the ritzy Chicago penthouse. She glanced up at the crystal chandelier overhead and the modern steel sculpture against the side wall and felt the familiar onslaught of awe. Not that she hadn''t seen her share of fancy penthouses and stone mansions. To be honest, that''s where she usually took assignments as a bodyguard, because quite simply, the average Joe couldn't afford her. It was for reasons of her own, however, that she would never choose this kind of lavish, pretentious lifestyle for herself. The elevator doors slid closed behind them, and Dr. Reeves knocked on the door. Jocelyn waited beside him, hands clasped at her back, curious as to how her potential "principal" would answer. Would he open the door without asking who it was, or would he use the optical viewer? The crystal knob turned, and the door swung open. She''d have to educate her client about that. Before she could give that another thought, however, Jocelyn found herself gazing up at a handsome, golden-haired gentleman dressed in a tuxedo, his starched, white shirt unbuttoned at the neck, his black bow tie undone and dangling in front. Slender and strong, tall and confident, with just the right mixture of arrogance and appeal, he was alarmingly, heart-stoppingly gorgeous. This was a man who belonged on the cover of GQ magazine - a man who made Jocelyn's breath stop and twirl around in her throat. Before she realized it, she'd taken a stupefied step back. Good God, what was wrong with her? This was a business call... Available as an Ebook only.
