Publisher's summary

The eighth installment of J. Kenner's seductive Man of the Month series introduces a fresh new heartthrob brought to life by the smooth baritone of Noah Michael Levine. (Romance fans may recognize his smoky, commanding voice from Loving Doctor Vincent by Renea Mason, the 2016 Audie Award winner for Best Erotica Audiobook.)

When Detective Landon Ware is assigned to Taylor D'Angelo's stalker case, he loses all semblance of his calm, collected demeanor. Landon's certainly taken notice of Taylor before, but now that she's his job, he tries to prioritize her protection over his steadily growing attraction to her. She's too young for him, after all, and she's in danger. But the more time they spend together, the harder it is to deny the building tension between them. And while their relationship has the potential to draw Taylor's stalker out and catch him for good, there's also a possibility their passion could destroy them both….
