Not just one or two.... ALL of them. But he's also been keeping one of his own.

Retired military officer Levi Jacobson built his small-town security business with one rule—work alone. He’s seen too much, lost too much, and trusting others—especially women—isn’t in his playbook. But when a wave of break-ins threatens his town, he’s forced to bring in outside help. Big mistake… or his best decision yet? Sage Reynolds doesn’t need anyone’s approval—just a paycheck big enough to keep her afloat. Taking a job in a sleepy town solving a string of robberies? Not ideal. Dealing with a gruff, maddeningly sexy boss who thinks she’s in over her head? Even worse.

I ran from danger and landed here in Kelly Lakes, hoping to put my past behind me. I didn't expect to almost faint into the arms of a cop upon arrival. You know the type. The one with the heart of gold and bedroom eyes. Mike is also seven years my junior… and my new boss's son. It doesn't matter if our chemistry is immediately undeniable. Or if I catch him watching me with pure yearning on his handsome face. I'm not looking for a relationship after what I just survived. It's a good thing Mike swears up and down he doesn't believe in true love.

I wouldn't say I ran away exactly - 22 is too old for that. I'd call it self-preservation. I have one objective: protect my heart from the boy next door who has no clue I've loved him my whole life, even with a front row seat to his revolving bedroom door. My escape plan almost worked. Except I left one thing behind. Logan Carter hijacked my heart, and it's time to get it back. This time for good.

I will destroy all threats to the empire with unrelenting force. Even if that threat comes in the form of a weak, fragile lesser with night-black hair and beguiling eyes. The blades. Elite forces of the empire, nightmare to all servant-world residents just trying to scrape by. Of course I have to flee when my medical ship comes under attack.
