Guarded by the Ghost: A Grumpy Bodyguard Romance (Wicked Sanctuary #2)
Wren Fox
(Wicked Sanctuary Book 2)
When danger strikes, the men of Wicked Sanctuary step from the shadows—deadly protectors who live by their own rules. But none of them expected to find a love that hits harder than any bullet.
Charlotte "Charlie" Devereux, a rebellious heiress and expert art authenticator, is no stranger to trouble. After exposing her father’s business partner, Malcolm Reed, for running a criminal smuggling operation through her family's company, Charlie becomes a target. Her father’s solution? Hire the grumpiest, most lethal man he can find.
Kieran "Grim" O'Rourke doesn’t do small talk, attachments, or emotional entanglements. A former black ops specialist with a permanent scowl and a no-bullshit attitude, he’s used to keeping his distance. But Charlie challenges him at every turn—bold, stubborn, and completely unwilling to play the damsel.
What starts as an explosive clash of wills quickly turns into something deeper as they unravel the full extent of Reed’s crimes—including a dark secret tied to the murder of Charlie’s mother years ago.
With enemies closing in and secrets threatening to destroy them, Charlie and Grim will have to fight not only for survival—but for a love that neither of them saw coming.
Guarded by the Ghost is a steamy, action-packed grumpy bodyguard romance featuring a sharp-tongued heroine, a brooding ex-soldier with a haunted past, and a high-stakes battle for justice—and for each other.
Part of the Wicked Sanctuary series, but can be read as a complete standalone.
