Silent Guardian (Harlequin Intrigue Series #1037)

His protection had a price, one she was willing to pay

Geoffrey Archer is all that stands between a madman and his next victim. When the ex-cop learns that beautiful Resa Wade is being targeted by the same suspect who had cost Geoff his career and his family, he feels duty-bound to protect her. Keeping her safe means keeping her with him—even though his instincts warn him that her presence poses a threat to his guarded heart. The closer they get, the more angry Resa's stalker becomes. Is giving in to unexpected passion the best way to flush out the perpetrator…and will Geoff and Resa be able to walk away when all is said and done?
