Lifeguard Nathan. Lifeguard Guardians, #1

"My arms wrap around her heavenly legs and it doesn't escape my attention how soft her skin feels, even under water."When curvy, free-spirited Miranda takes a dive at the community pool, she never expects to crash into the arms of the gorgeous lifeguard who's been watching her from afar. Self-conscious about her body and scarred by years of bullying, Miranda has mastered the art of hiding her insecurities behind bold spontaneity-but Nathan sees through her defenses in an instant.
What begins as a rescue quickly ignites into a forbidden passion neither can resist. As their chemistry blazes hotter than the summer sun, Miranda finds herself opening up to Nathan in ways she never thought possible, surrendering to desires she's kept locked away. But when their thirteen-year age gap raises eyebrows and her wild-child antics threaten to push Nathan away, Miranda must decide if she's willing to risk it all.
Can a woman who's spent her life being judged finally believe she's worthy of love? Or will Miranda's fear of rejection sabotage the one relationship that could prove her doubters wrong? Sometimes the deepest connections are found in the moments we're at our most vulnerable-and sometimes, a lifeguard saves more than just your life.
