Protected from Evil (Blade & Arrow Shadow Team #3)
Gia Cobie, Operation Alpha
A terrible betrayal cost me everything.
My home. My job. My reputation. My so-called friends.
Scared, hurting, the life I’d worked so hard for in shambles, there seemed no better option than to leave.
After years of city life, the idea of escaping to the small town of Williston seemed appealing. So I picked up and moved there to take a job at the local diner. It might not have been what I’d trained for, but I came to enjoy it.
Something else I enjoyed? Talking to Webb—my favorite customer, the most handsome man I’d ever met, and a man I might have considered dating if things were different.
Ever since I met Noelle at the diner, it’s become my favorite place to visit.
And if she gave any sign of being interested, I’d ask her out in a second.
As we grow closer, I can tell she’s keeping a secret. I’m worried, but I don’t know her well enough to push. Not until I find her hurt and and humiliated and crying in the diner bathroom, that is. Not until I find out the truth of why she left her old life behind.
Noelle needs someone who believes in her. Someone who’ll do anything to protect her. And with the help of my Blade and Arrow teammates, I intend to do just that.
Protected from Evil is a steamy he-falls-first story featuring a former Night Stalker, a scared but strong heroine, a team of Army veterans, found family, forced proximity, thrilling twists, and a guaranteed HEA. Can be read as a standalone.
