Lakefield Series by Jennifer Vester

Oliva wouldn't say she was paranoid. Maybe she read a few too many books on true crime, but it was all in the name of solid research. She was comfortable and cautious after a tragic event in her past. It worked for her. At least it had, until she met Aiden Latimer. He was tall, muscular and did that eyebrow arch thing like a pro. The billionaire spotted her, and her life has been anything but comfortable ever since. ​ He was bossy and annoying. He even has a problem with her cussing... moreOliva wouldn't say she was paranoid.
