Heartless — Sybil Bartel

Bodyguard. Sentry. Explosives expert. There was a reason I was the only Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician in the Marines who'd never sustained any injuries. I didn't take chances. Ever. My actions were precise. My thoughts were controlled, and I lived by one creed—no second chances. Except serving my country as an EOD in the Marines had a shelf life. Promoted off the front lines, I didn't want to ride out my career behind a desk. A civilian job with the best security firm in the business seemed like a better solution… until a frightened client with haunted eyes lied to me about everything. Now she was going to find out how heartless a bodyguard could be. *HEARTLESS is the ninth standalone book in the Alpha Bodyguard Series. The Alpha Bodyguard Series:SCANDALOUS - Tank's storyMERCILESS - Collins's storyRECKLESS - Tyler's storyRUTHLESS - Sawyer's storyFEARLESS - Ty's storyCALLOUS - Preston's storyRELENTLESS - Thomas's storySHAMELESS - Shade's storyHEARTLESS - Ronan's story
