Axel's Pretty Lady: Project Sentinel: Book One
L Ford

I’ve spent my life in the shadows, every move calculated, every decision a matter of survival. My world doesn’t allow for distractions, yet she’s become the one exception.
Nova wasn’t part of the plan. She’s a mystery I can’t afford to solve but can’t resist unraveling. Her presence stirs something in me—curiosity, desire, something dangerously close to need.
Time isn’t on my side. My commitments pull me into places she can’t follow, yet I find myself carving out moments to keep her close. She deserves more than I can offer, but for now, I’ll give her what I can—piece by piece, hour by hour.
Because if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s that in a life filled with chaos, someone people are lucky enough to find their peace.
