Summary
He didn't understand loyalty until she stripped it away.
Damian Stone was a distinguished member of the NYPD, on the fast-track to an FBI career until a crime syndicate ambush cost him his partner and his ambitions. Recruited by an elite security agency that leverages his hyper-protective instincts to shield notorious trial witnesses, Damian never met a charge he couldn't safeguard.
Until her.
Alexa Volkov lived a privileged life, far from the messy underbelly of her father's Russian mafia. As a crime boss daughter, she is in a unique position to collapse the organization from the inside out. Her plan to testify against the mob patriarch puts a bounty on her head that would tempt even the most trustworthy cop - especially one hell-bent on punishing her for the sins of her father.
But the safe house part of Damian's protection plan is anything but safe. In a place where alliances are not what they seem and the most dangerous heat bearing down on them is the forbidden burn of seduction, the only thing more at risk than life is a lethal hit to the heart.

Heat filled Enemies to Lovers romantic suspense
In Safe Hands is Book One of the Safe House series and is Narrated by Michael Pauley.
This is a story about loss, betrayal and a forbidden attraction so hot it could melt an ice cap. I nearly didn't buy this book because of previous reviews but I am so glad I did.
I for one actually loved the snarky commentary and had no issue with the fact that Michael did not try and sound like a woman. I liked that it felt more like I was listening to his private thoughts. To me this was no different to reading any book told from one person's POV.
Damian Stone is a sexy retired NYPD cop tasked with bodyguard duty. His charge is playful mafia daughter Alexa Volkov. A woman he is sworn to protect, does not like and can't trust but wants like no other.
There is lots of snark, back and forth banter and sexual innuendo but not a lot of actual physical sex until part way through the book. Then it's scorching in its intensity.
In a place where nowhere is safe and nothing and no one is what it seems the most dangerous threat is not to their lives but to their hearts. Friendships are tested, oaths are broken and rules thrown out the window before Damien and Alexa get their HEA..
Can a forever kind of love triumph over all? Can a forbidden attraction flourish whilst running for your lives? Of course it can but to get there is one of a ride.
IMO I believe that adult readers who like a good suspense thriller with heat will enjoy this book but if you are looking for a Pullitzer prize winner then this book is not for you.
