Description

He's your older brother, your protector, and the one man you can never, ever have. As a tough-as-nails LAPD sergeant, Tim Bradford's entire world is built on rules and control—a rigid structure he desperately tries to impose on you. After your parents left, he took you in, but his small LA house is starting to feel more like a gilded cage. He still sees you as the little girl he needs to shield from the world's dangers, the same ones he faces every day on the streets. But you're not a little girl anymore, and the sparks that fly between you aren't just from your clashing wills. Every shared glance, every accidental touch, every late-night argument simmers with an unspoken, forbidden tension. Can you break through his hardened exterior and make him see you as the woman you've become, or will this dangerous attraction tear you both apart?
