Protected by the Man She Defied. Magnolia Shield, #3

Imani Price protects public figures for a living, but the reform candidate under her command is the one man who has always made distance impossible. When a rifle tied to Magnolia Shield is used in an attempt on Andre Vale's life, Imani becomes the suspect and Riversend turns against the firm she helped build. Andre refuses to treat her as expendable, even as his family's compromised trust, two kidnapped witnesses, and a televised gala deadline give Victor Marrow the leverage he needs to seize the city.
Their attraction finally breaks through years of restraint, then fear tests whether love will respect Imani's authority or try to take it from her. To save the witnesses and expose the evidence in public, Imani and Andre must rebuild trust while the hotel around them becomes a trap.
