When He Guards (Protector And Defender Romance Book 5)

He made a fatal mistake. He lusted after the wrong woman. Let his need take over. Cassius “Cass” Striker knew that he should have never touched the sexy FBI agent, but he gave in to temptation and had the best one-night stand of his life with Agnes Quinn. It should have meant nothing. He should have been able to walk away… He can’t walk away. If he does, she’s dead. His enemies know about Agnes, and they plan to use her against him. He’s the leader of one of the most notorious motorcycle clubs in the US. His name stirs fear into the hearts of nearly everyone…and he has a giant target on his back. Those who want to bring him down have been looking for a weakness to use against him—they think they found that weakness in the form of Agnes. Now he either saves her or he watches her die. She doesn’t need saving, but it’s super sweet of him to try. She fell for the bad guy. Not something that typically happens given her occupation, but Agnes couldn’t quite help herself. She’d been drawn to Cass from the first moment, and now the world—uh, the “underworld” thinks that they are hot and heavy, that she’s a way to break the unbreakable leader of the Night Strikers. Cass is vowing to protect her, but the only way to do that? Enter his world. Accept his claim. Eliminate all the threats that exist to them both. She has to go in undercover, continuing to pose as Cass’s lover as they embark on a cross-country trip. She has to follow his rules. She has to seemingly sever her ties with the FBI. In other words, Agnes has to go deep and hard in an undercover mission as she and Cass take out some seriously bad guys. No worries, though. Agnes does love an undercover mission, so this should be fun. The case is a nightmare. It is not fun. And if Agnes flashes her sexy smile at him one more time… Cass is sure that he’s lost his soul, and he’s not even sure where his criminal life ends and the real man that he’d once been begins. He knows one thing, though. Agnes is trouble—and he wants her. Wants her so badly that maybe he’ll let the dark side of his nature off the careful leash he holds. And he’ll take what he wants as he damns the consequences. Threaten her? Try to use her against him? Worst mistake his enemies could ever make because Agnes is his. Cass was never meant to be a protector, but he sure is one hell of a hunter. View Less
