Protected by the Orc (After Midnight)

He's only supposed to be her fake boyfriend. Her body never got the memo.

Margaux Hepburn just turned fifty, and the last person she wants on her movie set this summer is the ex who bankrolled her film and refuses to accept that they're over. When his obsession turns dangerous, the bodyguard agency she hires sends the one employee her ex won't recognize to pose as her boyfriend. What she gets is a brooding, green-skinned orc bodyguard.

Khalid Greer is a retired Boston cop and a known playboy who moved to Cape Cod for a quiet life, certain he'd never settle down with anyone. One handshake with his new client sends an electric jolt through him, and quiet goes out the window.

Public outings staged for the cameras, a kiss meant only for show, and an attack that turns dangerous fast blur the line between pretend and real. Khalid will do anything to keep Margaux safe, even if it means risking his guarded heart on a Hollywood star who could never want forever with someone like him.

Part of the After Midnight series, a multi-author collection of steamy romance.
