The Accidental Promise (Steele Shadows Securities Series Cabin 2)

HIs protection. Her love. An irresistible bond. And when a killer comes for her, Axel Steele is the only one standing between her and death. A former special-ops Marine, Axel is the quiet Steele brother—the planner, the protector, the one who keeps chaos at bay. Routine is his armour; control is his weapon. Until the night he finds Erika Zajac, a defiant, beautiful, reckless labyrinth of a woman hiding secrets that could get her killed. She’s fire. He’s ice. And the spark between them is immediate, impossible, and addictive. With long-buried family tensions threatening to explode, and Erika’s past catching up with her, Ax finds himself caught in the crossfire of fate. Every touch, every glance fans a wildfire he cannot contain. The killer is relentless, the stakes high—but the biggest threat of all may be the woman daring him to feel alive again.
