The Last Defense

K.C. Mitchell

A reckless cowboy. A woman who refuses to be impressed. An enemy patiently waiting in the shadows. Corbin “Blaze” Lucas has always thrived on danger. With his cocky grin and take-no-prisoners attitude, he’s never met a risk he couldn’t handle. Until the danger—one he never could have imagined—starts following him home. What begins as pranks quickly turns deadly as the threats escalate. For the first time, Corbin realizes he may not be able to outmaneuver the enemy. Forced into hiding at a safehouse ranch, Corbin clashes with owner Raleigh Whitaker—a sharp-tongued psychologist who refuses to be charmed by his swagger or fooled by his defenses. She sees the man beneath the mask… and she’s not letting him hide behind his charm. But as tension ignites into something deeper, the danger finds them. Because the enemy hunting Corbin isn’t stopping. And when the truth finally comes to light, it won’t just destroy his defenses…It will unravel everything he thought he knew about himself.
